Baptists in Estonia have recently reaffirmed their defence of the sanctity of marriage and the “significant role” it plays in society at the recent annual Baptist Conference in Tallinn.
The major conference of the Union of Free Evangelical and Baptist Churches in Estonia brought together 135 delegates from across 83 congregations to discuss the significant role played by marriage in society.
The delegates passed a resolution at the conference entitled “No Alternative to the Sanctity of Marriage” in which the Baptists spoke out against what they regarded as the tendency in Estonian society to accept homosexual relations as an alternative form of human relationship.
