Pittsburgh Evangelical Examiner - U.N. Resolution to Outlaw Christian Evangelism Printer Friendly Forward to a Friend 

October 26, 2009
by Douglas Comin, Pittsburgh Evangelical Examiner

Did you ever think you would see the day when sharing your faith with a Muslim was against the law? If a new "Defamation of Religions" resolution passes in the United Nations, Christian evangelism will be effectively criminalized.

Jay Sekulow and the American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ) is responding to this anti-Christian threat, by sending legal teams to their New York City office, which is just down the street from the U.N., in order to speak out.
