The Council's objectives are:
-
To promote the education of Christians and Jews so as to
appreciate each other's distinctive beliefs and practices and their
common ground;
-
To promote the study of and research into historical,
political, economic, social, religious and racial causes of conflict
between Christians and Jews;
-
To promote, for the benefit of the community, education
in those fundamental ethical teachings common to Christianity and
Judaism;
-
To provide a forum for the discussion of issues of
common interest or concern between Christians and Jews; and
-
To act in Western Australia as the spokesbody on all
matters that come within the purview and purpose of such a council.
The Council is not a missionary organisation, neither
is it a political organisation; the aim is to promote dialogue,
recognising that the Land of Israel has a significant bearing on
Christian-Jewish relations. |
