A Christian pastor in the UK was arrested by police after a member of the public reported him for the “homophobic” comment of saying that marriage was between a man and a woman. Sherwood was arrested under the Public Order Act, for using “abusive or insulting words” that cause “harm” to another person https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9tOwbx7Vvs8 In 2019, UK police investigated the potential “hate crime” of a transgender woman being turned down for a porn role because she still has a penis. A video published by the UK government Home Office last year also suggested that insulting someone’s appearance now constitutes a “hate crime,” despite this not being the law. |

Okay... The arrest won't make the Truth become a lie in anyway. The World can go as far as rewriting every single bible on earth but that wouldn't change the Truth. He's a clergyman. Were they expecting him to support what his belief condemns? They should simply shut down the churches over there because I see no reason why there will be churches and they expect their ways not to be preached against. |

He is not a Christian! Jesus never disturbed the peace in his neighbourhood with noice or public nuisance {Matthew 12:19} the most wonderful counselor of all times already foresee what would happen if you're not going to visit people in their private homes for peacemaking with God! Matthew 10:11-15 So if he's arrested he's on his own Jesus never sent anyone to cause noise pollution! 1 Like |

MaxInDHouse: He is not a Christian because he disturbs the peace of his neighbors? You are not an honest judge of people's character. He was preaching on the street, and you want to justify his incarceration for disturbing the peace? The same people would not have issues with gay parade etc You did not even mention anything about his views on marriage. He is being arraigned before a judge because he dared to say something that goes against what society is trying to impose on all and sundry. If people think marriage is between a human and a cat but want to imprison you because you differ, you think, we should be focusing on disturbance of peace? Sit this one out Bra.

Jesus is the righteousness of God! So your righteousness is as filthy rags before God if you're trying to do things the other way instead of STRICTLY following Jesus' direction! Did you remember what led to the death of John the baptist? Well he publicly declared God's law against Politicians in Judae instead of going to join Jesus' group to learn how preaching and teaching should go in the end time! So the guy is not a Christian Jesus never asked his followers to throw things at the face of wrongdoers most especially when they're not interested in God's word!

This is how Jesus commissioned the preaching of the good news! Christians must dress well and go visit their neighbours (univited), no matter the lifestyle of your neighbour, you must dignify him/her with a greeting {Matthew 10:12} let them feel you're a friend, then start with the sweet messages of God's kingdom (Good News) it's the householder that will ask you what he/she needs to do in order to benefit from God's future plan for mankind, that's the right time to start sharing the information regarding the dos and donts of God's Kingdom! Galatians 5:19-21 If the householder feels like becoming one of the beneficiaries then you teach him/her practical steps to take so as to put away the bad habits and begin praying with/for him or her for God to assist them. Note that you're not even permitted to pray with anyone who has not shown any interest in God's laws! John 17:8-9 compare to Proverbs 28:9; Jeremiah 11:14, 14:11 But instead of following Jesus' direction on the matter misinformed Churchgoers will start praying for them thinking their prayers will change them. Abeg you love sinners pass Jesus who died for sinners? If nah prayers go change them you think say Jesus' prayer no do? |

MaxInDHouse: If Jesus was here today, you won't even call yourself a Christian. Jesus was like an outlaw. Authorities were looking for him. Peter was carrying a sword, today, that can pass for a gun for protection. Jews killed Jesus like a common criminal. People died for you to call yourself a christian. They were thrown in the lion's den, and burnt for their faith. They refused laws by tyrannical governments. They refused to deny Jesus. They were like outcasts. Society wants to change what marriage is, an institution of man and woman, then teach your kids in school. They teach your kids that a man can have menstruation and get pregnant and have kids etc. Christians are not cowardly types. Go home and sit down and let christians do what Christians do. We will tell you when it's safe for you to come out. Who visits people uninvited? Jesus said if you are accepted in, then you say peace to that home...Matthew 10:13 ... If the family, and particularly the master of it, appeared to be civil, courteous, friendly, and hospitable.... You know nothing and will do nothing for Christianity rather than accept all the crap that is being shoved into your mouth. Jesus called King Herod a fox and criticized him for marrying his brothers' wife. King Herod sent a message to Jesus threatening to arrest him. "Go tell that fox, 'I will keep on driving out demons and healing people today and tomorrow, and on the third day I will reach my goal.' ... Jesus replied, “ 1 Like |

You're just being emotional with your misdirected zeal! Romans 10:2-3 Why not substantiate using the scriptures to tell everyone what is wrong with Jesus' order to approach people in their private homes instead of arguing blindly? Matthew 10:12 Jesus doesn't make noise in the streets {Matthew 12:19} because he was laying a foundation for a global preaching and teaching program which may not work well in lands where people are not allowed to pollute the environment with noise. For your information the Israelites are used to the system where a prophet will come and start making noise in their neighbourhood in the name of God, but Jesus is planning a global campaign for God's Kingdom. There is no human society that will forbid people from visiting their neighbours, that's why Jesus taught his followers to go and pay visits (uninvited) to their neighbours at homes. Since the nation was formed such a thing has never occur before then but the most wonderful counselor of all times {Isaiah 9:6} foresaw the challenges his followers may encounter in other lands that's why he set that standard for preaching. I repeat that idiot is not a Christian so if he's release good but if he should die in the course know now that he's on his own Jesus doesn't know him! bn365: 1 Like |

Misdirected zeal! I've quoted the scripture for you and explain why Jesus instructed us not to make noise in the streets, but you just want to argue blindly. For your information Atheism will rule the earth as the final world government so if you ignore instructions due to your misdirected zeal that you can't substantiate YOU ARE ON YOUR OWN JESUS DOESN'T KNOW YOU! Our children are well informed about the truth so instead of any teacher coming to tell them what is wrong my grandson will teach you what God say so it's Misinformed Churchgoers like you that's scared of what your children will face when they're away from home! bn365: 1 Like |

The fact remains that each person is free to decide whatever lifestyle he/she prefers whether man-woman or woman-woman or man-man. Genesis 2:17 compare to Joshua 24:15 Faith is personal {Hebrew 11:1} not to be forced down the throat of others around us, even when unbelievers question our faith we must reply them with MILDNESS and DEEP RESPECT! {1Peter 3:15} each and everyone is also free to make friends and initiate (compel) your friend to accept and copy your lifestyle, that's what Jesus had in mind when he commissioned Christianity so that Christians can penetrate any society with ease. If it's the way the idiots shouting in the streets today are doing it Christianity won't pass the boarders of Israel because most societies are not familiar with town criers who are not authorized by the rulers. So the way Jesus laid the groundwork you have the right to accept or reject anyone's friendship and you also have the right to say "YES" or "NO" when friends present anything to you, it's your life and you have the right to live it the way you want. God is the one who determines those that will continue living and those to be exterminated. Ecclesiastes 11:9-10 Meanwhile whether we approve of someone's lifestyle or disapproves we must be peaceable with all men! Romans 12:18 That's Christianity for you! BassReeves: 1 Like |

I agree with you! Satan made it seem as if Christianity is all about shouting "Jesus Jesus" up and down {Matthew 7:21-23} but if they know that they must change their personality from the old lifestyle to the new one introduced by Jesus {Colossians 3:9-10} i wonder how many people will wish to be called "CHRISTIANS" {Matthew 10:34} because it involves living a simple lifestyles {Matthew 6:19-24} not getting involved in politics where some dictates for others {John 6:15} whether they like it or not they must continually visit their neighbours and making peace so that even when there's no mutual agreement on mode of worship they will know their neighbour's likes and dislikes. Matthew 10:11-13 All these are what most people wants to hide from their neighbours, they just want people to treat them like celebrities, and that is totally against Christianity which the founder (Jesus) commissioned with lowliness of heart in mind! Matthew 5:37-42 So if most people realized that only JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES are the followers of Christ there will be lesser and less Christians in our society. But then they will all see with their own eyes that Christianity is the salt and light of the world {Matthew 5:13-16} that is exactly what Satan don't want them to notice, no wonder he created countless religions with contradicting teachings and conflicting doctrines yet they're all claiming denominations belonging to the same FAITH! 2Corinthians 4:4 BassReeves: |

bn365:Of course it will sound like gibberish in the ears of the physical man but in the ears of the spiritual man {1Corinthians 2:14} with eyes of faith and full of wisdom {2Corinthians 5:7} such things will sound like costly pearls that must be kept in their figurative treasury! Matthew 13:45-46 For your information that's why i'm able to substantiate with the scriptures proving that the so called preacher is not a Christian while you can't point out a single thing that's wrong in everything i said {1Corinthians 2:15} all you just want to say is the noisemaker is also a Christian whether he follows Jesus' pattern of preaching reasonably or not! But you can't prove me wrong and despite seeing how logical and practicable my explanation sounds you just want to argue blindly, what a shame for unrepentant wrongdoers? You better repent now before it's too late, if what you're practicing doesn't make any logical reasonableness then know that you're nailing Jesus the second time {Hebrews 6:6} because instead of helping unbelievers to reason along with the perfect counselor you're making him look like an idiot who lacks common sense!

They start with " Its not your business what two consenting adults do in their bedroom, then they legalize it, then teach your kids in school. Then, they tell you no more male and female. It's offensive to say marriage is between man and woman. Then they teach your 5 yrs, old kids, in school that men menstruate, they get pregnant and give birth. Give an inch, they take a mile

Give Caesar's things to Caesar! Mark 12:17 Satan rules the world {Luke 4:6-7} but he has no hold on Jesus and Christians {John 14:30} but whatever Satan is propagating Christians are not to come out publicly and start challenging it. All we can do is to keep our faith strong {Ephesians 6:11-14} and inculcate God's word in the minds of our own children {Deuteronomy 6:6-7} the same intimidation is happening to all faithful servants of God throughout the world! 1Peter 5:9 So whatever they want to promote Christians have no say in their administration because our own Kingdom is no part of this system!

bn365:I believe these days, you need a permit to disturb the peace in most cases. A gay parade does not happen spontaneously in most places. The organizers are expected to get a permit of some kind for such events and or gatherings. As for the Man's views, here's my problem with what the man preaches. It has little to nothing to do with the Gospel of the Kingdom which Jesus Christ sent us out to teach but more to do with his personal interpretation , something Jesus Christ warned us all against. If people think their marriage is between a human and a cat... let them think that. Jesus Christ did not send us out to correct people's ideas on marriage and all the other societal issues you can fill your bucket with at the end of each day is that is what you care to put your focus on. Jesus Christ sent us out to teach His Gospel of the Kingdom of God, just as He taught it to us. While you preach, you are also expected to obey the commandments of Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ commanded that you do unto others as you will like for them to do to you. So if you don't love it when others shout their ridiculous beliefs at you in public spaces, don't do it to others. |
