Tony Blair Comments
  • Headline
  • Blair has no problem with homosexual bishops
  • Headline DT 31 Oct
  • Event
  • Tony Blair angered church traditionalists
    yesterday by saying he did not object to
    homosexual bishops. Mr Blair an Anglican who
    often accompanies his wife to Roman Catholic
    services said homosexuals should be allowed to
    do the same as heterosexuals in any walk of life
  • Comment
  • This is not new. We have known Tony Blair is a
    liberal when it comes to homosexuals but to
    actually condone homosexual bishops is surely a
    sign we are living in days very similar to Sodom
    and Gomorrah.
  • Bible Quote
  • 29 But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom
    it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and
    destroyed them all.
  • 30 Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son
    of man is revealed.
  • Luke 1729

The Queens Speech
  • Headline
  • Gay couples to get rights as civil partners
  • Headline DT 27 Nov
  • Event
  • A bill to give same sex couples the legal rights
    and responsibilities of the married counterparts
    was hailed by the government yesterday as a
    demonstration of its commitment to equality and
    social justice. Nine other countries in the EU
    already have schemes that recognise committed
    homosexual relationships.
  • Comment
  • Michael Howard (opposition leader) in response to
    the Queens Speech attacked the Government from
    every angle apart from this one. As the DT put it
    In one of the most revealing passages, he said
    that the Bill that would allow homosexual
    partnerships would address some genuine
    grievances that are acknowledged on all sides of
    the house. It appears therefore the only thing
    our political leaders can agree on is the
    promotion of homosexual ways. Sodom and Gomorrah
    is upon us.
  • Bible Quote Genesis 18
  • 20 And the LORD said, Because the cry of Sodom
    and Gomorrah is great, and because their sin is
    very grievous

Weddings fall to record low
  • Headline
  • Weddings fall to a record low a couples cohabit
  • Headline DT 30 January
  • Event
  • The number of marriages in Britain has fallen to
    fewer than 300,000 a year, the lowest level since
    records began more than 50 years ago.
  • There were 286,000 weddings in 2001 compared with
    408,000 in 1950, according to figures issued
    yesterday by the Office for National Statistics.
  • Comment
  • Lowest number of marriages since records began!
    We must not succumb to worldly thinking that all
    is well if people want to live together and are
    not married. It used to be called living in
    sin. Another word is fornication. Let us, while
    watching these things deteriorate, not weaken our
    position that this is wrong and one more sign we
    live in the last days.
  • Bible Quote Genesis 224 1 Corinthinians 69
  • Therefore shall a man leave his father and his
    mother, and shall cleave unto his wife
  • 9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not
    inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived
    neither fornicators,. shall inherit the kingdom
    of God.

  • Ibiza fun-seekers put health at risk with unsafe
    sex DT 3 February
  • Top police chief wants to legalise heroin
    Headline The Times 5 February
  • Outrage over topless barber shop Headline DT 6
    February
  • Event
  • Almost 80,000 people in England and Wales
    acknowledge living together in same-sex
    relationships according to the latest date from
    the 2001 census.
  • One in 13 young holiday makers in the drugs,
    dance and sex resorts of Ibiza have at least 6
    sexual partners while there according to
    researchers.
  • Britain's most outspoken chief constable has
    called for the legalisation of heroin.
  • A topless barber shop was condemned yesterday as
    an appalling example of the laddish culture
    sweeping Britain.
  • Comment
  • What a world we live in. Homosexuality rife,
    young people with 6 sexual partners on holiday,
    calls for drugs to be legalised and a laddish
    culture sweeping the UK.
  • Bible Quote 2 Timothy 3
  • 1 This know also, that in the last days
    perilous times shall come.2 For men shall be
    lovers of their own selves 4 lovers of pleasures
    more than lovers of God

Church softens tone on homosexuality.
  • Headline
  • Church softens tone on homosexuality.
  • Headline DT 12 February
  • Gay couples marry as city defies law
  • Headline DT 14 February
  • Event
  • The Church of England moved closer to relaxing
    its policy on homosexuality yesterday after the
    overwhelming majority of speakers in the General
    Synod debate urged greater tolerance.
  • In a series of hasty ceremonies, 87 homosexual
    couples were married in San Francisco as the city
    authorities challenged state law and became the
    first in America to issue same-sex marriage
    licenses.
  • Comment
  • We see the world becoming more like Sodom and
    Gomorrah each day. Though we do not like like to
    dwell on these things as they revile us as they
    do our Lord God, we need to be aware and watching
    so that we can warn others of the judgements that
    are coming on this earth.
  • Bible Quote Genesis 13
  • 13 But the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners
    before the LORD exceedingly.

Children should be taught atheism
  • Headline
  • Children should learn more about atheism
    and less about
    Jesus - DT 15 February
  • Event
  • The teaching of religious education in schools
    should be renamed spiritual education, with
    children being taught more about atheism and less
    about the life of Jesus and the 10 Commandments,
    according to the Government's favourite
    think-tank.
  • The lessons should be widened to include
    "non-religious belief systems", a report by the
    Institute For Public Policy Research says. It
    calls for equal weight to be given to agnosticism
    and humanism as is given to Christianity.
  • Comment
  • As someone pointed out in the article you can
    learn all you need to know about atheism in a few
    minutes. Atheism and humanism they are indeed
    the new religions of the world. The article even
    goes on to say that children who have been taught
    a belief by parents will be made to question
    their belief and doubt it. How we must protect
    our own children and teach them every day - THE
    TRUTH.
  • Bible Quote Ecclesiastes 12
  • 1 Remember now thy Creator in the days of thy
    youth, while the evil days come not

The Archers
  • Headline
  • The Archers' first gay kiss - an everyday story
    of country folk?
  • Headline DT 29 February
  • Event
  • Things will never be the same in Ambridge. The
    Archers, "an everyday story of country folk", is
    to feature its first gay kiss.
  • Britain's longest running radio show has decided
    that the time is right to tackle what, for it at
    least, is the ultimate taboo.
  • Comment
  • Though this is stomach churning we need to
    watch for such things - Paul warns us to be
    vigilant. The escalation of immorality in the
    world has even in the last few months with gay
    marriages in America been incredible. The
    Archers, (for those living in other countries who
    read this) is a BBC radio broadcast that goes out
    every afternoon and early evening. It is about
    country folk (farmers etc) living in a made up
    place in Britain called Ambridge. Despite it
    being Britain's longest running radio show it is
    still listened to by millions of people including
    many pre school children. The world is terribly
    sick and only our Lord can heal it.
  • Bible Quote 2 Timothy 3
  • 1 This know also, that in the last days
    perilous times shall come.2 For men shall be
    lovers of their own selves, covetous,
    boasters.., 3 Without natural affection,

Archbishop comments
  • Headline
  • Atheist view can help believers, says Archbishop
  • Headline DT 31 March
  • Event
  • Studying atheism is the key to improving
    understanding between faiths, the Archbishop of
    Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams, said yesterday.
    Speaking in America, Dr Williams said that,
    although it sounded paradoxical, the way atheists
    viewed religion could help believers understand
    how they saw each other.
  • Comment
  • If this was published a day later I might have
    thought this was an April Fools joke. However it
    is not. The head of the Church of England says
    the KEY to improve understanding between faiths
    is studying atheism! Britain is now almost
    entirely bereft of any moral or religious
    leadership. The UK government this week published
    legislation that will give homosexual couples
    legal rights similar to married couples. The
    decline in morality in Britain is now astonishing
    but not unexpected. We are getting closer
    everyday to the return of our Lord Jesus.
  • Bible Quote 2 Timothy 3
  • 1 This know also, that in the last days
    perilous times shall come.
  • 3 Without natural affection
  • 5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the
    power thereof from such turn away.

Top job for gay cleric
  • Headline
  • Top job for gay cleric
  • Headline The Times 17 April
  • Event
  • The gay canon forced to stand down as Bishop of
    Reading is reportedly to be appointed to another
    senior position in the Church of England. The
    choice of Dr Jeffrey John as Dean of St Albans is
    likely to cause more controversy in the Anglican
    church around the world.
  • Downing Street plans to announce the appointment
    on Tuesday, according to the Times. The job is
    one of the most senior in the Church of England.
  • Comment
  • We live in days of immorality. There has always
    been immorality some will say but we now have the
    so called religious rulers of the Church of
    England not only endorsing homosexuality but
    being homosexual themselves. It is one of the
    great signs that we are at the very close of the
    age in which we live.
  • Bible Quote Matthew 1514 Romans 125-27
  • 14 they be blind leaders of the blind. And if
    the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into
    the ditch.
  • 25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, 26
    For this cause God gave them up unto vile
    affections 27 .. also the men, leaving the
    natural use of the woman, burned in their lust
    one toward another men with men working that
    which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves
    that recompence of their error which was meet.

Gay marriage bill in disarray
  • Headline
  • 'Gay marriage' Bill left in disarray
  • Headline DT 25 June
  • Event
  • Government plans to allow homosexual and lesbian
    couples to form legally binding civil
    partnerships were in turmoil last night.
    Ministers in the Lords refused to take part in
    any further debate on the Civil Partnership Bill
    after peers voted to extend it to other couples,
    including carers and sisters who lived
    together.The Bill gives male and female
    homosexuals the right to form legally binding
    partnerships and enjoy the same tax and pension
    rights as married couples.Several bishops, argued
    that the Bill was discriminatory because it
    looked after the interests of same-sex couples
    only.
  • Comment
  • The breakdown of the family unit as a structure
    enshrined in the law of the UK is almost
    complete. The debate is now not whether
    gay/lesbians should have the same rights as
    married couples but why should others groups not
    have the same rights as well. This is the unclean
    spirit of the 3 frogs. (Rev 1613). We are
    promised freedom (Ex 88) but in fact this is a
    lie. These laws bring a slavery to sin. In fact
    in Psalm 78 quoted below the word destroyed
    means corrupted in a moral way. We see the moral
    corruption (this froglike spirit) prevailing now.
    It will bring all nations to Armageddon -
    judgment
  • Bible Quote Psalm 78 see Strongs 07843 be
    corrupt, be ruined, be rotted
  • 45 He sent ..frogs, which destroyed lt07843gt
    them.

Senate rejects ban on gay marriage
  • Headline
  • Senate rejects presidents plea to ban gay
    marriage
  • Headline DT 14 July
  • Event
  • The US Senate rejected an appeal by George W Bush
    yesterday for a constitutional amendment to ban
    same-sex marriage. In a disappointment for Mr
    Bush and conservative Republicans, Democrats and
    some Republican rebels voted against even holding
    a vote on whether marriage should be defined as
    exclusively between a man and a woman.
  • Comment
  • They wont even hold a vote on whether marriage
    is exclusively between a man and a woman! This is
    not because the answer is so obvious but because
    currently in America there are (as reported in
    the WWW) a growing number of instances where
    states are legally marrying gay people. By not
    allowing a vote allows this abhorrent situation
    to continue. We know it will only get worse so
    that the world in which we live becomes even more
    like the wicked and sinful cities of Sodom and
    Gomorrah. The Bible is totally clear. Marriage is
    only for a man and a woman and if the world
    truly understood that marriage is a symbol of
    Christ and his ecclesia perhaps they would think
    differently. Let us, the true virgin ecclesia,
    wait for our bridegroom.
  • Bible Quote Genesis 2
  • 24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and
    his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife and
    they shall be one flesh.

Anglican church faces split
  • Headline
  • Church faces split as report fails to heal gays
    row
  • Headline DT 19 October
  • Event
  • The future of the worldwide Anglican Church
    remained precarious last night after a report
    intended to heal divisions over homosexuality
    failed to reassure conservatives.
  • The Windsor report challenged liberals to end
    their defiance of the majority view but imposed
    no serious sanctions on those involved in
    consecrating the Churchs first bishop to admit
    being a practising homosexual. The 120-page
    report, commissioned a year ago by the Archbishop
    of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams, provoked mixed
    reactions from protestors.
  • One conservative archbishop said I am not
    optimistic for the future of Anglicanism.
  • Comment
  • The article went on to say that that this debate
    masks a deeper question which elements of
    Anglicanism - scripture, reason or tradition -
    should prevail? The answer is obvious to us.
    Scripture is God breathed. As soon as human
    reasoning or traditions are taken into account
    godless ways are soon in coming. The Lord God
    makes very clear what he thinks of homosexuality.
    We do not need a 120 page report to inform us!
  • The moon is symbolic of religion in the
    scriptures. Jesus said the moon would darken
    before he returned. We see the darkening of this
    particular church with its teachings.
  • Bible Quote Mark 13 24 and the moon shall not
    give her light,

Historic upset in EU parliament
  • Headline
  • Cheering MEPs welcome Barroso climb-down
  • Headline DT 28 October
  • Event
  • Faced with certain defeat by angry Euro-MPs, José
    Manuel Barroso yesterday withdrew his embattled
    team of European commissioners in an historic
    upset that profoundly alters the character of the
    European Union.
  • "I have come to the conclusion that if a vote is
    taken today the outcome will not be positive for
    EU institutions or for the European project," he
    told both jeering and cheering MEPs in the packed
    chamber of the European Parliament.
  • Comment
  • This story is incredible. Euro MPs (MEPs) have
    to vote in the proposed EU commissioners. However
    Italys commissioner, Rocco Buttiglione, made a
    comment a week ago that he believed homosexuality
    was a sin. A majority of MEPs decided therefore
    to vote against the whole commission because of
    this one mans belief of homosexuality being a
    sin. They cheered when the incoming commission
    president, Jose Barroso backed down. Italy has
    now withdrawn its commissioner. Europe it appears
    can only be run by people who do NOT believe that
    homosexuality is a sin.
  • Bible Quote 2 Peter 2 our souls should be as
    vexed as Lots in Sodom.
  • 8 (For that righteous man Lot dwelling among
    them, in seeing and hearing, vexed his righteous
    soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds)

God gene discovered by scientist
  • Headline
  • God gene' discovered by scientist behind gay DNA
    theory Headline DT 14 November
  • Event
  • Religious belief is determined by a person's
    genetic make-up according to a study by a leading
    scientist. After comparing more than 2,000 DNA
    samples, an American molecular geneticist has
    concluded that a person's capacity to believe in
    God is linked to brain chemicals. Growing up in a
    religious environment was said to have little
    effect on belief. Dr Hamer, who in 1993 claimed
    to have identified a DNA sequence linked to male
    homosexuality, said the existence of the "god
    gene" explained why some people had more aptitude
    for spirituality than others.
  • Comment
  • This theory is nonsense. Let us not be taken in.
    It supposes that humans cannot change. That we
    are pre-programmed with the outcome. The Bible
    makes clear that we have to fight against our
    lusts and worldly ways. Our ways are not Gods
    ways His thoughts are higher than ours. But we
    cannot say I am sorry I am homosexual but you
    made me that way. We cannot say I am sorry I
    killed someone but you gave me a violent gene.
    The other point is that growing up with religious
    belief does have a huge effect. The Bible makes
    clear how important it is for the young to
    remember their Creator. Bible Quote Ecclesiates
    12
  • 1 Remember now thy Creator in the days of thy
    youth,

Ministers private lives / no moral censure
  • Headline
  • Ministers free to pursue private lives
    without moral
    censure, says Blair DT 30 November
  • Event
  • Tony Blair has given his ministers unprecedented
    freedom to pursue their private lives free from
    moral censure to try to save David Blunkett's
    career.
  • Although he came to power in 1997 promising a new
    era of integrity in politics, he repeatedly
    refused yesterday to pass judgment on the
    embarrassing allegations that have engulfed Mr
    Blunkett, his former lover Kimberly Quinn and
    their public battle over the paternity of her
    two-year-old son and unborn child.
  • Comment
  • This argument has been developing over some years
    now. It goes like this - What has a politicians
    private life to do with their political life?
    Private lives, says Tony Blair, should be free
    from moral censure! So in other words do what you
    like in private but in public do the right thing.
    This is hypocrisy and shows the depths to which
    the present rulers have sunk. We long for the
    time when we shall be ruled by a king who in all
    aspects of his life is righteous. The kingdom
    beasts of the world will be destroyed. As Peter
    says below they will perish in their own
    corruption.
  • Bible Quote 2 Peter 2 12 But these, as
    natural brute beasts, made to be taken and
    destroyed, speak evil of the things that they
    understand not and shall utterly perish in their
    own corruption

Church is imploding
  • Headline
  • Church is imploding, says Archbishop of
    YorkHeadline DT 5 December
  • Event
  • The Archbishop of York, Dr David Hope, has warned
    that the Anglican church
    is on the brink of "implosion" over the divisive
    issues of the ordination of homosexual clergy and
    women bishops.
  • In an interview with The Telegraph on the eve of
    his retirement as the second most important
    clergyman in the Church of England, Dr Hope, 64,
    said that the Church's "fundamental Christian
    message" was in danger of being lost in the midst
    of disagreement over differences that were
    "neither here nor there".
  • Comment
  • We should not be surprised at these developments
    in the last days.In the rest of the article Dr
    Hope goes on to say that the above issues are NOT
    important. What is important is bringing people
    to Jesus. When asked about his own sexuality he
    said it was a grey area. Surely we are seeing
    the leaders causing the people to err. They no
    longer teach anything that can be called the
    gospel. The Bible is no longer important to them
    it is human thinking that counts. We should
    watch ourselves, that we too are never taken in
    by these things. The verse below warns us.
  • Bible Quote 1 Timothy 4 1 Now the Spirit
    speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some
    shall depart from the faith, giving heed to
    seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils
