To our fellow Malaysians, Muslims or otherwise

Saw this in the mail today, and i thought everyone ought to know about this, so that we don't get (or tell others) bullied by zealots of a certain religion, or be shot down by the leaders of "alternative" religions.

FREEDOM OF RELIGION IN MALAYSIA SHOULD BE PRACTICED AND RESPECTED BY ALL.
FYI, there's no such thing as THE religion as far as this world is concerned, because if there ever was, there would've been only ONE religion. Let people have the freedom to choose for themselves. After all, humans aren't that stupid.
=========================================================
The Malaysian Federal Constitution, Article 11 (1) states that :

"Every person has the right to profess (to declare, teach and affirm in public) and practice his religion (meet to pray, worship, carry out acts stated in holy texts or doctrine) and, subject to Clause (4), to propagate it (preach, evangelise, invite to participate)."

And if you must know, Clause (4) is the law which limits our right to share the gospel to Muslims. (If you're interested to know the rest of Article 11, go here: http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Constitution_of_Malaysia#Article_11)

Did you know that the above 19 word sentence guarantees your right as a Malaysian citizen to start Christian Fellowships in every School,College,University,Place of Work in every state of Malaysia? This means that NO ONE can stop/ hinder/ ban and restrict any single one of you from starting/organising Christian Fellowships/events!

Do you know that if anyone so much as threatens action against you when you meet to pray for one another, intercede for your School and be led by the Holy Spirit to bless your school and friends, they are already on the wrong side of the law?

In other words, everyone is sanctioned and protected by the most supreme law in Malaysia to do Christian Fellowships. No one in the face of this country can rob that right from you. And if that's not enough, guess what? The Creator of the heavens and the earth, Yahweh, Jesus, Holy Spirit - God Himself is on your side.

Galatians 6:9 (New King James Version) reads:

"And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart."

While, Joshua 1:9 (New Living Translation) reads:

"This is my command—be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid or discouraged. For the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”
