I refer to the Malaysiakini report No action against Al-Islam, say AG's Chambers .

The two journalists from the Al-Islam magazine who were sent undercover to a church to participate and desecrate the Holy Communion have got off scot-free.

Police say charges have been dropped. The Attorney-General's Chambers has given them the thumbs up.

All right-thinking Malaysians will be taken aback by this development. But rest assured, Christians will not take to the streets in protest.

I shudder to think of the consequences if a non-Muslim were to enter a mosque under false pretences and participate in the worship. And later, write an article mocking the practices of the Muslims.

Forget about police reports and demonstrations and burning effigies. That would be nothing. There would be bigger worries, like whether you will get through the night alive.Detention under ISA would be a most welcome respite‘for your own protection’.

So the authorities have decided that there will be ‘no further action’. Or have they left it to God to do what He thinks is appropriate? What is this Holy Communion that Christians have practiced for 2000 years? Is it something trivial?

The purpose of the bread and the cup of the Holy Communion is as a remembrance of Jesus Christ and as a proclamation of His death and His imminent return. And what does the Bible say about those who take the Holy Communion irreverently?

‘Whoever eats the bread and drinks the cup in an unworthy manner will be guilty of sinning against the body and blood of Jesus.’

Not only that, the Bible also goes on to say that, ‘you're running the risk of serious consequences’ including being ‘weak and sick’ and the ominous warning of ‘an early grave’.
