Yes, it’s a spoof, but you might enjoy this YouTube video. A bit of light relief. (h/t Michael Kellahan.)
Standing with those who stand in Scotland
The Fellowship of Confessing Churches in Scotland seeks your prayers and invites your support –
“The General Assembly of the Church of Scotland meeting in May 2009 will hear an appeal against the decision of the Presbytery of Aberdeen to induct into a charge a minister who has openly declared himself to be living in a homosexual relationship.
If the Assembly votes to support the Presbytery of Aberdeen, it will publicly declare such behaviour as acceptable and honourable for a leader in Christ’s church. This would mark a historic departure for our church from the teaching of the catholic Christian faith, and a radical deviation from the clear Scriptural pattern that recognises the sanctity of marriage between one man and one woman as the only proper place for sexual intimacy—a pattern which our church has hitherto always publicly affirmed.
To now declare explicitly an active homosexual lifestyle as holy, something the Bible unambiguously calls sin … would be immensely damaging for the cause of Christ in Scotland and disastrous for the national church. …”
Dr William Philip (St George’s-Tron in Glasgow) and other members of The Fellowship of Confessing Churches invite Christians worldwide to stand with them in prayer – and to indicate support of their call to the Church of Scotland General Assembly 2009 to uphold biblical orthodoxy on the issue of human sexuality. See the website to signify your support.
The Financial Breakdown: A Spiritual Diagnosis
How to make sense of the Global Financial Crisis? How should Christians think about debt-based financial systems?
Dr Paul Mills is an economist and a Christian. He spoke last week at Capitol Hill Baptist Church’s Henry Forum. What message might this have for Sydney Anglicans?
More importantly how might we turn conversations about the financial meltdown to the Lord Jesus Christ? Hear the talk and question time from the CHBC website.
