Dear en,
I was encouraged to read in the November edition about the ‘Day of Prayer for Britain: Brexit, Unity and Reformation’…until I came to the concluding remarks: ‘Brexit was likened to the Children of Israel leaving Egypt. Moses persisted. It was God who hardened Pharaoh’s heart. Finally, everyone was set free.’
My heart sank. Once again, Scripture is being used (that is, abused) on behalf of a particular political agenda. If this parallel between Brexit and Exodus is correct, it casts me and many thousands of other Christians who voted ‘Remain’ in the role of recalci-trants who want to return to Egypt!
