Christians to be criminalized for handing out Bibles, praying for, laying hands on people

A Labour Party-run council in England has sparked outrage by proposing a sweeping injunction that could imprison Christian street preachers for up to two years over claims of causing “offense” or “distress.”

Under the proposed terms, Christians would be banned from praying for individuals without prior consent, handing out religious leaflets or Bibles by hand, and laying hands on people in prayer — even with permission, according to The Telegraph.

Is that Muslims in government? Crazy, trumped up charges. It’s so sad to have the truth people need and they just don’t want it.

The world is complaining that Christian’s make too many converts, for the world needs love Of Jesus.
