I have previously noted the failure of Roman Catholics to stand by one of their own. Now I must question the failure of Christians to stand by the Cornish couple who were persecuted for standing by their principles.
The Bible is pretty clear on homosexuality, and you certainly don't need a degree in theology to be able to find the relevant passages. Romans 1 is a good starting point, and Revelation 21 is also informative.
The Daily Mail reports that:
The couple claim they have received death threats, vandalism and had their website corrupted with pornography.
Have the people who sent the death threats or committed the acts of vandalism been prosecuted?
Christians could help the Bulls by staying in their hotel, or by sending them money to help them survive. They could also help by joining a political party which does not hate christianity. That excludes the Labour Party, the Conservative Party, and the Liberal Democrats.
They could also help - assuming they go to one of the mainstream churches - by refusing to put money in the collection plate until the leaders of their particular church do a better job of speaking out on behalf of persecuted Christians.
