(The Christian Post) – U.K. lawmakers on Friday gave final approval to the Terminally Ill (Adults) Bill, which would legalize assisted dying in England and Wales under specific conditions.
While the bill passed after several amendments, the Christian Medical Fellowship (CMF) issued a statement lamenting the decision and calling Christians to remain anchored in the hope found in Jesus Christ.
The legislation, introduced by Labour MP Kim Leadbeater and first approved in December 2024, allows terminally ill adults — with a life expectancy of six months or less — to request and receive assistance in ending their lives, subject to a series of safeguards. CONTINUE
