Dear Sir,
I was disappointed at CARE’s Gareth Davies’s wholly secular analysis of the issues at stake in the coming EU Referendum (en, April). More helpful was Jim Sayer’s ‘What is a nation’ in the same issue.
Should we not be debating whether being ‘In’ or ‘Out’ promotes the spread of the gospel? Accepting the drawing power of our English lingua-franca and our prosperity, the free movement of people brings us people to evangelise who may return home enlightened by the gospel. Or should we acknowledge that our prosperity is the heritage of God’s blessing us as a once Protestant nation? Reclaim our sovereignty, seek to re-assert Christian principles to show the nations that our God still blesses those who honour him?
