Christ said we are the light of the world. He said that we are not to hide this light under a bushel but that we are to live as examples of holiness and Godliness in this dark world. With our projects, which are focused on serving and blessing, we are committed to demonstrating the love of Christ without forsaking the gospel. We regognize that we are to be salt and light, not salt or light.

Concerned Christians Canada is encouraging Christians, who are called by Christ's name to stand for Christ, and when they have done all to stand, to stand having girded themselves with the armor of God. We are sounding the trumpet call to all men and women that love the Lord to be the watchmen over the nation that we are called to be.

Our nation, although founded by men who believed in the God of the Bible, has markedly departed not only from holding the Bible up as THE authority for and above all men, but has substancially departed from honoring the God of the Bible.
There are many attacks on the Biblical definition of the family. God has blessed his definition of marriage, other choices bring curses, not only on the adults but also on the children and on the society that embraces those choices.

CCC is committed to explaining the benefits for God's design for marriage. As an organization, we are also committed to promoting God's model, to individuals, groups and politicians.
In this day and age, youth are hurting. Whether it be that they have been wounded by sexual, physical, emotional or spiritual abuse, at home or elsewhere, or broken by "dating" which has left them abandoned and broken, whether they have had stability and security robbed from them due to their parents divorcing, or any of a myriad of other problems, children are more and more hopeless and need to know that Christ is for them if the turn to Him. Find out how CCC is reaching out to youth.
We need your prayer support.

God is our source and our provider, but he uses people like us to pray for one another, to edify one another and to build each other up in the faith. He uses people like us working together in the Spirit of Christ to change lives. Find out how CCC is encouraging the body of Christ to work together to Pray, Act and Make a Difference!

Alberta's anti-Christian bigotry condemned... in the Huffington Post!

By Ezra Levant on June 13, 2008 12:34 PM

The Huffington Post is the largest, and arguably most influential, left-of-center website in the United States. Here is an Op-Ed, by constitutional scholar Eugene Volokh, that expresses appropriate revulsion at the Alberta human rights commission's anti-Christian order in the Rev. Stephen Boissoin case. Like everyone else, Volokh is disgusted. But his last points are the most important:

Recall that the Supreme Court of Canada originally upheld the Canadian "hate speech" bans precisely because

[T]he phrase 'hatred or contempt', are sufficiently precise and narrow to limit its impact to those expressive activities which are repugnant to Parliament's objective. The phrase 'hatred or contempt' in the context of s. 13(1) refers only to unusually strong and deep‑felt emotions of detestation, calumny and vilification and, as long as human rights tribunals continue to be well aware of the purpose of s. 13(1) and pay heed to the ardent and extreme nature of feeling described in that phrase, there is little danger that subjective opinion as to offensiveness will supplant the proper meaning of the section.

Well, it looks like the Alberta Human Rights Commission is no longer "pay[ing] heed" to the limits imposed by the law. Unfortunate — but not surprising.

The bigots in Canada's human rights industry justify their censorship by referring to that very Supreme Court decision, claiming that it empowers them to ban websites and issue lifetime gag orders -- our 21st century version of a good old-fashioned Nazi book-burning.

As Volokh points out, they're lying -- the SCC did not give them that power. Canada's HRCs are issuing baldly unconstitutional orders. They're bullies. They're counterfeit courts. They are bringing the law into disrepute.

But that suits Alberta's premier, Ed "Ed" Stelmach, just fine. As I mentioned before, he even sent in a special lawyer from the Department of Justice to intervene against Rev. Boissoin.

Why not let the premier know what you think of his unconstitutional, anti-Christian bigotry? E-mail him This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .

But be careful -- if you hurt his feelings, he might give you a lifetime gag order, too.
