The full text of this legal handbook has been made available online with free access by Kairos Research Centre.

 

Sale of this book has been brisk and almost sold out. This is possibly because “of a growing concern in the mind of the public sparked off by recent trends in legislation that have led to the erosion of religious freedom, and by a series of disputes involving Shariah and Civil law …” writes Dr Ng Kam Weng, the Research Director of Kairos.

 

The aim of this handbook is to help Christians and church leaders be well-informed about matters concerning law and religion in our society, and to have confidence to “exercise their Constitutional right to profess, practise and propagate the Christian faith with wisdom and courage that comes from knowing that they have done the right thing in the eyes of the law.”

 

The book was put together with the help of several Christian lawyers. As laws go out of date and new ones are made, as well as new issues arise that must be addressed, this book needs to be up to date. So instead of reprinting this 2004 book Kairos has decided to offer it for free online.
