Focus - Australian Christian Confederation

Area of Focus

We are a pro-Christian organisation dual-focused on the socio-political activities enshrined on the Australian culture and Christian values.

Social Movement

We endeavour to work with the communities in Australia in the following areas:

Alleviation of poverty – According to Australian Council of Social Service, 13.4% of the population are living below the poverty line including 761,000 children.
Illicit use of drugs and alcohol culture - According to the 2019 National Drug Strategy Household Survey (NDSHS), an estimated 9.0 million (43%) people aged 14 and over in Australia had illicitly used a drug at some point in their lifetime (including the non-medical use of pharmaceuticals).
Violence and crimes – According to the Bureau of Statistics released report in 2021, crime rates are on an increase trend compared to 2020 – sexual assaults (13%), homicide (7%), robbery (-3%), blackmail/extortion (24%), motor vehicle theft (3%) etc. Alarmingly, crimes have a direct relation with the illicit substance use and alcoholism.

Political

Terrorism and Security: In Australia more than 100 people have been convicted of terrorism offences or are in prison charged with terrorism offences. 29 organisations are currently listed as terrorist organisations under the Criminal Code.

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders: We stand with Australia’s First Peoples who are facing issues such as the impacts of the Stolen Generations and removal of children, unresolved trauma, separation from culture, discrimination based on race or culture, economic and social disadvantage and physical health problems.

Abortion/Euthanasia- We believe a human life begins at conception and each and every human life has inherent dignity, and thus must be treated with the respect due to a human person.

LGBT/Gender transition – While we love respect everyone irrespective of their sexuality, we believe that physical, moral, and spiritual difference and complementarity are oriented toward the goods of marriage and the flourishing of family life,

Religious freedom – Section 116 of the Australian Constitution of 1901 provides for freedom of religion. We believe that the freedom of thought, conscience, religion and belief is fundamental and should be protected at all times.

Christian Values

Since the creation of the Commonwealth of Australia, the percentage of Christian population steadily declined from 96.1% (1901) to 43.9% (2021). As the Christianity plummets in Australia, mental health issues and illicit substance use are on a rise. Christianity should be maintained in Australia in order to face social challenges and to preserve family values. We hold on to the teachings of Jesus Christ. Christianity brings a plan for our happiness, our redemption, and our salvation—a divine blueprint that includes faith in Christ, repentance, baptism, keeping God’s commandments, receiving the Holy Ghost, and enduring to the end.
