Russia's Proposed Law: No Evangelizing Outside of Church

Evangelicals protest the law, which would severely limit where and how Christians share the gospel.

Christians in Russia won’t be allowed to email their friends an invitation to church or to evangelize in their own homes if Russia’s newest set of surveillance and anti-terrorism laws are passed.

The proposed laws, considered the country’s most restrictive measures in post-Soviet history, place broad limitations on missionary work, including preaching, teaching, and engaging in any activity designed to recruit people into a religious group.

To share their faith, citizens must secure a government permit through a registered religious organization, and they cannot evangelize anywhere besides churches and other religious sites. The restrictions even apply to activity in private residences and online.

This week, Russia’s Protestant minority—estimated around 1 percent of the population—prayed, fasted, and sent petitions to President Vladimir Putin, who will have to approve the measures before they become official.

“Most evangelicals—leaders from all seven denominations—have expressed concerns,” Sergey Rakhuba, president of Mission Eurasia and a former Moscow church-planter, told CT. “They’re calling on the global Christian community to pray that Putin can intervene and God can miraculously work in this process.”

Following a wave of Russian nationalist propaganda, the laws passed almost unanimously in the Duma, the upper house, on Friday and is expected to pass in the Federation Council, the lower house, today.

“If this legislation is approved, the religious situation in the country will grow considerably more complicated and many believers will find themselves in exile and subjected to reprisals because of our faith,” wrote Oleg Goncharov, spokesman …

Once a criminal, always a criminal...

Waiting for those who always pretends to be hard on corrupt people to gather on this now..

But they said Igbos are the ones supporting all corrupt people in Nigeria. .. I wonder why they are not backing this one and those who has always raised hard voices to smear innocent people on persecution noose suddenly lost their voices and their phones..

All of you shall rip what you have/are sowing.

Yes ibos like defending any corrupt person that is against PMB's administration...am a yoruba man and I want each and every corrupt person to be probed including Buratai, aisha, fayose, even GEJ for his carelessness

That's what have been saying...we shouldn't allow this trend of the state Govt looting and instigating us to be blaming federal Govt to continue, the governors, the judicial and the legislative arm of Govt have always been the problem of this country called Nigeria

zendy:
You should be asking why they are disturbing the peace, all is not well in the land

both jonathan and your lord buhari have failed this nation.

YOU ARE OBVIOUSLY FROM SE,SS OR NW.
C'MON GERARAHIA B4 I CALL SANGO AKA AMADIOHA FOR YOU.

einst3in:
I think the statistics from the SW or NC will be more representative because there is where you find voters that are more objective and rational on issues. The other regions especially SE and somewhat NW are more sentimental. The root cause I don't know but I think it's religion.

I CONCUR

Lalasticlala...please move it

Rayhutar:
Ibos are not celebrating any bad news, Ibos are not happy with the way SW is giving the North easy landing in Southern Nigeria, Yorubas support the Northern agenda against the Southern Nigeria, the North is on conquest in Southern Nigeria, they have already grab Kwara, next is Lagos and Ogun. Remember the word of Usman Dan Fodio to the north, "The north should treat the South as conquered people and never allow them to have control until we dip Koran in the Atlantic Ocean", SW direction is the easiest route for them to reach Atlantic ocean, they are using the willing tools in Yoruba land to achieve their aim.

Who gives a damn about the northern agenda in this 21st century, the yorubas are not concerned about today, they are concerned abt thier future instead...they are aiming to harness available resources in the so called NIGERIA to develop the future republic of Lagos(Oodua rep) before think inking of secession...the yorubas enjoy freedom more than any other region in the country...they are tolerant and more accommodating and you know.

Enough of this your pity me strategies from the masses...go and defend yourself, we aren't interested in your case, because we haven't felt your impact in this and previous administration.

Nice question...I want youths to think of a better NIGERIA and stop defending any of this criminals called politicians...Don't be FOOLED, they are all one...even if Buhari's anti-curruption fight is termed as witch-hunting, we are gonna work towards how the next administration will witch-hunt this administration too...so that they can all. witch-hunt themselves until when we all become scared off eating YAMS
