“CHRISTIAN FREEDOM AND IDENTITY IN THE UK TODAY “
by Pastor Peter Simpson
“Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord” (Psalm 33:12)
On March 7th the Protestant Conference held its bi-annual meeting at the Lord’s Church in St. John’s Wood in central London. Pastor Peter Simpson addressed the subject of ‘Christian freedoms and Christian identity in the UK today’.
He began his address by referring to some recent encouragements on the freedom front, including the vindication of the Darlington nurses and Nurse Jennifer Melle, following their disputes within the NHS over transgenderism ideology.
Pastor Simpson’s paper then went on to deal with four areas of ongoing concern regarding the liberties of Bible-believing Christians.
1) Freedom for open air preachers on the public highway and in multicultural contexts;
2) the November 2025 UK Supreme Court ruling concerning school assemblies and R.E. classes in Northern Ireland that they must be carried out in an “objective, critical and pluralistic manner”;
3) the Government’s desire to redefine the concept of Islamophobia, giving it the new title of ‘anti-Muslim hostility’, and the potential lying therein to restrict legitimate Christian critiquing of Islam;
4) the Government’s intention to press ahead with the banning of ‘conversion therapy’ practices.

How vast, how numerous, how complicated are the various events and circumstances which attend the Church of God here below, as she travels onward to her heavenly home! But if all things as well as all persons are put under Jesus’ feet, there cannot be a single circumstance over which he has not supreme control. Everything in providence and everything in grace are alike subject to his disposal. There is not a trial or temptation, an affliction of body or soul, a loss, a cross, a painful bereavement, a vexation, grief or disappointment, a case, state or condition, which is not put under Jesus’ feet.
He has sovereign, supreme disposal over all events and circumstances. As possessed of infinite knowledge he sees them, as possessed of infinite wisdom he can manage them, and as possessed of infinite power he can dispose and direct them for our good and his own glory. How much trouble and anxiety should we save ourselves, could we firmly believe, realize, and act on this! If we could see by the eye of faith that every foe and every fear, every difficulty and perplexity, every trying or painful circumstance, every looked-for or unlooked-for event, every source of care, whether at present or in prospect, are all, as put under his feet, at his sovereign disposal, what a load of anxiety and care would be often taken off our shoulders!
J. C. Philpot 1802-1869

Extract of a sermon preached by
John Newton
“Unto us a child is born;” in our nature, born of a woman: “Unto us a Son is given,” not merely a man-child, but, emphatically, a Son, the Son of God. This was the most precious gift, the highest proof and testimony of Divine love. The distinction and union of these widely-distant natures, which constitute the person of Christ, the God-man, the Mediator, is, in the judgment and language of the Apostle, the “great mystery of godliness,” the pillar and ground of truth….It is the central truth of revelation, which, like the sun, diffuses a light upon the whole system, no part of which can be rightly understood without it. Thus, the Lord of all humbled Himself, to appear in the form of a servant, for the sake of sinners.
“The government shall be upon His shoulder.” In our nature He suffered and in the same nature He reigns. When He had overcome the sharpness, the sting of death, He took possession of the Kingdom of Glory as His own – and opened it to all who believe in Him. Now we can say, He who governs in Heaven and on earth, and whom all things obey, is “the child who was born, the Son who was given for us”… [Those united to Him by faith] have, in one respect, an appropriate honour, in which the angels cannot share. Their best friend, related to them in the same nature, is seated upon the throne of glory. Since He is “for them, who can be against them?” What may they not expect, when He who has so loved them as to redeem them with His own blood “has all power committed unto Him, both in Heaven and on earth!”<
