Unfortunately making jokes about tatooing homosexuals on their "backsides" is not a good witness for Christ... it's sneering, ugly and rude. Homosexuality is an abomination against God, but making crude and obscene comments about other people's bodies is wholly unacceptable, especially from a "priest." He made those of us who love homosexuals, and want them to repent of all their sins, and to trust in Christ alone, look bad. I am an ex bisexual, and I know how this would be received by the "gay" community. We need to pray for consistent, loving and compassionate outreach - not sniggering school boy obsenities. It's this "look at their sins" while overlooking our own which damages our witness. ALL have sinned (including this cleric with his vile language) and we all need to be forgiven. Whether holier than thou hypocrites, or out and out sexual idolators. Instead of laughing at people, we should be trying to live for Christ, and Christ alone, and we should do everything and anything we can to save the lost, whatever their sins. As well as praying for homosexual to be saved, we should pray for this clergy man, that he actually meets with Jesus, and has his life transformed. |

I live in the UK, and it's quite scary how few churches preach the gospel. When I moved house last year I attended a church which I left when, on Easter Sunday, the preacher not once mentioned the name of Jesus, but did mention the Easter bunny, Eostre the goddess of spring, egg rolling and chocolate eggs. I was horrified... what about those people who only come to church at Easter, and this was their one chance to hear the gospel? I've been to churches where they are more interested in pentecost than the cross... hence much rolling on the floor and giggling for no reason, and I've been to churches that say God is all love and wouldn't suffer anyone to be in hell forever... I don't know if I've been unlucky or not, but I'm beginning to believe that the UK has truly fallen. If you want some advice from the ruins on this side of the water... pray for your surviving churches, that they do not fall. Because the devestation when they do is appalling. |
