The CRL is a Chapter 9 advisory institution, not a government regulatory body. Attempting to dictate church governance exceeds its authority and undermines democratic freedoms.#handsoffthechurch#polokwane#limpopo
We reject any measure that threatens the independence of the Church. We will stand, we will pray and we will peacefully raise our voices in defence of religious freedom #handsoffthechurch
“Earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered to the saints.” Jude 1:3
That’s why we march.
Join South African Church Defenders for the LARGEST Christian March in Limpopo.

Did you know the CRL has attempted this before? Proposals for state oversight of churches have been previously rejected due to constitutional flaws. Reviving rejected regulation frameworks undermines lawful consultative processes. #handsoffthechurch
The Church will continue to stand for religious freedom, defend the independence of the Church, and contend for the constitutional rights guaranteed to every South African.

@Thokoxaluva If someone believes in “the rights of all human beings”...
why push for government regulation of the church? Xaluva must go!!

Why state regulation of churches affects YOU? Giving government power over church operations opens the door for political interference in how we worship. Be educated and get involved.#handsoffthechurch#polokwane#Limpopo
