The Caldron Pool Show: #31 – The Ezekiel Declaration
Exactly one year ago, The Ezekiel Declaration was published. The document was an open letter to the Australian Prime Minister opposing the implementation of vaccination passports, especially within the church.
Before long, the document went viral and attracted the support of over 3,000 concerned church leaders and more than 26,000 members and attendees. Its popularity also attracted critics, who lamented the letters ‘tone’ and accused the authors of casting doubt on the safety and effectiveness of the vaccines that were being imposed on the public.
Of course, the criticisms did not age well. A year later, it’s safe to say the authors and signatories have now been entirely vindicated in their near-prophetic concerns.
In this episode of The Caldron Pool Show, Evelyn Rae chats with the three pastors who authored the declaration 12 months ago.
Authors of the Ezekiel Declaration Throw Full Support Behind Critic’s Plea to End Segregation

Pastor Who Urged Readers Not to Sign “Divisive” Ezekiel Declaration Will Exclude Unvaccinated From Worship Gatherings
If the church were to take a bold stand on this matter of vaccine certificates, it would undoubtedly involve some degree of confrontation with the world.

An Important Update from the Authors of the Ezekiel Declaration

The Ezekiel Declaration
To the Honourable Scott Morrison, As Christian leaders, you should be aware that in accordance with scripture we regularly pray for “and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and dignified in every way” (1 Timothy 2:2). We do write, however, to you regarding a matter of significant concern. Namely, the proposed introduction of ‘vaccine passports’ into Australian society. For many Christian leaders and Christians, this is an untenable proposal that would inflict terrible consequences on our nation. We should initially note that we are not the first generation that has…
