Resist aggression towards those who belittle our faith

In his 2007 Christmas message, the Rev Joel Edwards has called on Christians and non Christians alike to be tolerant of each other.

The General Director of the Evangelical Alliance has addressed the question of how we embrace and worship Christ while living in multi-faith communities.

He said that tolerance means people who are free not to worship should avoid making life difficult for those of us who do, but also called on Christians not to respond aggressively. "We must resist the urge to react to any belittling of our belief or our intellect with aggression."

The Evangelical Alliance would like to thank Premier TV for producing this years Christmas Message.
