- 0:01Speaker 1: Welcome back to Challenges of Faith Radio program. I'm Gary.
- 0:07Speaker 1: Before we begin today's discussion, I wanna introduce you to
- 0:10Speaker 1: McCann's Investigations in Security, a private investigative and security business
- 0:16Speaker 1: owned and operated by myself. While you listen to the program,
- 0:22Speaker 1: also think about how I can provide some form of
- 0:25Speaker 1: protection for you, your loved ones, your place of worship,
- 0:31Speaker 1: your business, your organization or community, and why you're thinking
- 0:36Speaker 1: about it. Let's go ahead and go to the day's topic.
- 0:41Speaker 1: Did you hear you know? Britain was once a bastion
- 0:46Speaker 1: of Christianity and for centuries, yes centuries, as monarch service
- 0:52Speaker 1: a Supreme governor of the Church of England and even
- 0:55Speaker 1: carried the title Defender of the Faith. Now King Charles
- 1:01Speaker 1: has taken a decided step away from this historical role,
- 1:04Speaker 1: and rather than uphold the truth and authority of the Bible,
- 1:09Speaker 1: Charles is looking to place all religion under deperved view
- 1:13Speaker 1: of the crown. Now. Remember, shortly after becoming a monarch,
- 1:17Speaker 1: Charles said Britain is a community of communities, and he
- 1:22Speaker 1: described the sovereign responsibility as protecting the practice of all
- 1:27Speaker 1: religions and beliefs throughout the country. Then language itself marked
- 1:33Speaker 1: a notable ship from the monarchy's historical role. The title
- 1:38Speaker 1: defender of the Faith, which when you do your research,
- 1:41Speaker 1: dated back more than five hundred years and long reflected
- 1:45Speaker 1: England's close connection to Christianity. You remember now Christianity is
- 1:49Speaker 1: a person Jesus Christ. Now, rather than describing the king
- 1:54Speaker 1: as the head of the Church of England and defender
- 1:57Speaker 1: of the Faith, the Crown is referred to as the
- 2:00Speaker 1: Supreme Governor of the Church of England and protector of
- 2:03Speaker 1: the space for faith within the multi faith nation. Today,
- 2:09Speaker 1: when you look at Britain, it looks very different from
- 2:11Speaker 1: what it once did. Recent figures from the National Center
- 2:16Speaker 1: for Social Research indicate the only about five percent of
- 2:20Speaker 1: British adults attend a Christian church service each week. Meanwhile,
- 2:24Speaker 1: the nation has become religiously diverse, with growing growing Hindu, Muslim,
- 2:32Speaker 1: Sheikh and other faith communities. Now there's been a proposed
- 2:37Speaker 1: law that raises new concerns and as you know, many
- 2:43Speaker 1: listeners are tuning in from England and keeping with the
- 2:50Speaker 1: Crown's new focus on inclusivity, the British government also introduced
- 2:55Speaker 1: a proposed conversion Practices Bill, The legislation is to prohibit
- 3:00Speaker 1: what it describes as abusive attempts to change a person's
- 3:05Speaker 1: sexual orientation or transgender identity. So while a person will
- 3:10Speaker 1: be provided with assistance to change from the birth gender
- 3:13Speaker 1: and transition, it will not be allowed assistance to prevent
- 3:17Speaker 1: it from happening, or to change back to the birth
- 3:20Speaker 1: gender if they desire to do so. The bill makes
- 3:24Speaker 1: illegal any psychological or emotional pressure, controlling, or cohesive behavior
- 3:31Speaker 1: and conversations involving sexuality, and if someone were to be
- 3:36Speaker 1: convicted under this new bill, they could face penalties of
- 3:41Speaker 1: up to five years in prison and unlimited finds when
- 3:44Speaker 1: unlawful conversion practices. The legislation has written so broadly that
- 3:50Speaker 1: it could criminalize ordinary conversations, parental guidance, pastoral counseling, or
- 3:56Speaker 1: biblical teaching, and to encourage a child to wait before
- 4:02Speaker 1: pursuing gender transitional Pastors, counseling, church members, or others expressing
- 4:08Speaker 1: traditional Christian beliefs could all eventually find themselves facing legal scrutiny,
- 4:14Speaker 1: going to jail, in potential bankruptcy thanks to the numbed
- 4:20Speaker 1: finds Claus. Remember now the unlimited finds Claus. But you
- 4:26Speaker 1: also got to keep in mind that government officials insist
- 4:29Speaker 1: that ordinary conversations and freedom of speech will remain protective. However,
- 4:35Speaker 1: the legislation has written to very easily create an environment
- 4:39Speaker 1: where people avoid discussing Biblical views on sexuality and gender
- 4:44Speaker 1: altogether for fear of legal retribution. In recent years, if
- 4:50Speaker 1: you've been following, Britain has repeatedly made headlines over arrests
- 4:55Speaker 1: involving individuals who are preaching on the street or ordinary
- 4:59Speaker 1: citizens parteid dissipating in silent prayer. Now, King Charles has
- 5:06Speaker 1: revised a description of the monarchy and Parliament's proposed legislation
- 5:11Speaker 1: pointed in the same direction. Britain continues to move away
- 5:15Speaker 1: from its Christian heritage. The nation that once sent missionaries
- 5:19Speaker 1: around the world is becoming a mission field itself. And
- 5:22Speaker 1: for individuals who believe in the Word of God, you know,
- 5:25Speaker 1: Bible believing Christians, these developments are another reminder of how
- 5:30Speaker 1: quickly cultures can change, and while many believers still have
- 5:35Speaker 1: the freedom to openly share their faith, those opportunities should
- 5:39Speaker 1: never be taken for granted. I hope you found today's
