The chairperson for PROCMURA in Sierra Leone, Rev Christiana Sutton-Koroma gave the Christian perspective on Freedom of Religion or Belief. She said “PROCMURA’s theological position of Freedom of Religion or Belief (FoRB) comes as part of the uncontested essence of God understood by the three monotheistic religions of Judaism, Christianity and Islam; that God is all Knowing (omniscient) Hebrews 4:13”. She said God knows everything and nothing is hidden from him citing Isaiah 46:9-10 and because God is all knowing, religious diversity did not come without God’s knowledge but it does not “suggest that God brought about religious diversity.” She made it clear that it is theologically sound to say that religious diversity came about with God’s knowledge; at best with God’s permission and at worst against God’s will. Sutton-Koroma further said that everyone has the freedom and right to belong to the religion of their choice and no one should serve as a barrier to another person’s faith. She said God is a democratic God, that is the reason He gave everyone the freewill to choose. She noted that Sierra Leone enjoys the commendation as a country that has religious tolerance and often cited as a great example. She said the bible encourages Christians to live at peace with all men and to love their neighbour as themselves. Hence, she said, there was no need to disturb people practicing other forms of faith different from theirs.
