Marathon Relay Race

“Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us. Looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.” Hebrews 12:1-2
Hebrews 11 and 12 remind us that we have the great privilege of being part of God’s family. We are His sons and daughters. We are part of God’s team. And we are in a cosmic marathon relay race.

Racism, Xenophobia
and Hate Speech

Only Biblical Christianity offers a rational basis for opposing racism and for pursuing justice. Equality before the law is a Biblical principle:
“The community is to have the same rules for you and for the alien living among you; this is a lasting ordinance for the generations to come. You and the alien shall be the same before the Lord. The same laws and regulations will apply both to you and to the alien living among you.” Numbers 15:15-16
CHRISTIAN ACTION NETWORK SUPPORTS ANTI-INTERNET PORNOGRAPHY BILL
The Christian Action Network supports the drafting and proposal of an Anti-Internet Pornography Bill by the Justice Alliance of South Africa to the Deputy Minister of Home Affairs as a possible solution to (partly) combating the scourge of pornography in South Africa.
This proposed Bill comes as a result of calls from Deputy Minister of Home Affairs to ban pornography from the public sphere and to ensure the protection of children. Deputy Minister Gigaba has also requested the South African Law Reform Commission to look into this possibility of banning pornography on the internet, cell phones and on television.

INVICTUS IDOLATRY

This stirring new film on South Africa’s 1995 Rugby World Cup victory includes serious distortions of history. Directed by Clint Eastwood and starring Morgan Freeman as President Nelson Mandela, Invictus makes a major contribution towards the building up of the mythology of Nelson Mandela as a modern day idol.

The Justice Portfolio Parliamentary Committee will then begin deliberations on the Bill. Public hearings on the Bill will be held countrywide once the bill has been drafted.
We need to keep up the pressure on the media by writing Letters to the Editor and lobbying influential organisations and Members of Parliament. Contact Christian Action for advice on lobbying.

“Who will rise up for Me against the evildoers? Who will stand up for Me against the workers of iniquity?” Psalm 94:16
When a “Sexpo” was advertised to take place in the Cape Town International Convention Centre (CTICC) for the second year in a row, the Christian Action Network launched a campaign to expose and oppose this. Through a vigorous letters to the editor campaign and complaints sent to the Advertising Standards Authority, letters to Acting Mayor Grant Haskin, many phone calls, e-mailings and radio programmes, Taryn Hodgson and Dr. Peter Hammond alerted Christians in Cape Town and sought to mobilise opposition to this outrageous event.
Christian Action has been involved in a whole series of pro-family events and actions in order to counter the relentless attack of the homosexual lobby against the family.

“Power tends to corrupt; absolute power corrupts absolutely.” - Lord Acton
Although governments are meant to protect their citizens, secular states in the 20th Century murdered over 169 million of their own citizens!

The popularity of Che Guevara’s image on t-shirts is quite bizarre. According to the company that sells Che Guevara products: “Che’s image has a rock ‘n roll edge to it that we are looking for.” Advocates claim that Che is chic for the sophisticated” and “It’s an icon of what’s cool.”

There is a growing worldwide war against Christianity. Last year, over 160,000 Christians were killed for their faith. Christians have been beaten, imprisoned and killed for the crime of being a Christian in Red China. In Sudan, Christians have been bombed, massacred and sold into slavery. In Indonesia, Muslim mobs have wiped out entire villages of Christians, burning down many hundreds of churches.

As a result of the teachings and example of Jesus Christ, women in much of the world today, especially in the West, enjoy far more privileges and rights than at any other time in history. ... click here for more
