Tolerance is a one way street to hell. - This is an "I told you so" moment.
In my previous post here, on the upcoming day of Silence in our Nations public school system - something designed to make us all feel so horrible for calling sin 'sin' - it was noted that some students were planing a counter day where they would do nothing but wear T-shirts expressing their feelings on the subject. To which I wrote:
I'm sure that will go over well. In fact I won't be surprised if there aren't some schools who attempt to squelch it.
Well, Candace Taylor reports for the Journal Inquirer that:
Four high school students were sent home Friday after they wore T-shirts bearing anti-homosexual slogans to school, causing a series of disturbances as other students became "emotionally distraught," students and school officials said.
Moving on, the damage by the US Episcopalian Church's ordaining of a Bishop who actively practices the sin of homosexuality continues.
LifeSite reports on Gene Robinson speaking before a Planned Parenthood "prayer breakfast in Washington on Friday April 15th."
In essence Robinson is advocating the complete reinterpretation of the Scriptures. He is quoted in the Times article as saying "We have allowed the Bible to be taken hostage, and it is being wielded by folks who would use it to hit us over the head. We have to take back those Scriptures," he said. "You know, those stories are our stories. I tell this to lesbian folk all the time: The story of freedom in Exodus is our story. ... That's my story, and they can't have it. … We need to teach people about nuance, about holding things in tension, that this can be true and that can be true, and somewhere between is the right answer. It's a very adult way of living, you know. What an unimaginative God it would be if God only put one meaning in any verse of Scripture."
"What an unimaginative God it would be...." Good grief. It's pretty clear to me that he isn't talking about the Righteous and Living Creator.
My prayer is that he would come to now Christ the Savior and the unchangeable God in a personal relationship that would break those chains of sin.
The Great Separation continues.
