The Shofar is the ancient trumpet which called the people of God to prayer, repentance, sacrifice and war.

BRIGHTON PRIDE WITNESS TOUCHES A NERVE

Immediate 18.00 hrs 10th August 2007

A Christian witness at the 'gay and lesbian' 'Brighton Pride' touched a nerve on Saturday 4th August this year. Brighton 'Gay Pride' is billed as Europe's biggest homosexual event, but the thousands of homosexuals took great exception to a small witness of just 20 Christians at the southern entrance to the City's Preston Park .

'Shame on you', chanted an overweight man, clutching his 'boyfriend's' hand, seemingly unaware of the paradox of accusing others of shame while foaming out his own shame (Jude 1:13). Such perversion merely demonstrates the truth of the Bible when it says 'the unjust knoweth no shame' (Zeph 3:5). The Apostle Paul also writes of those 'Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly (Greek 'koilia') and whose glory is in their shame' (Phil 3:19).

A small contingent of police officers facilitated the lawful Christian witness and prevented disorder. Arrests were made of a couple of individuals among a number whose enthusiasm for the principles of diversity, possibly enhanced by some alcoholic refreshment, compelled them to launch bottles and cans, most of them empty, at the Christians.

Others vented their hatred by yelling 'Where are the lions?' Things have not changed that much since the early Christians paid the ultimate price by objecting to the Roman concept of multifaith diversity and insisting 'Jesus Christ is Lord'.

Obeying the Scriptural example from Psalm 20:5, 'in the name of our God we will set up our banners,' a number of placards were on display, with Bible verses only, from the King James (or 'Authorised') Version, as agreed with the police. Apart from one text, Mark 10:6-8, where the Lord Jesus endorsed heterosexual love and marriage in the God-given 'one-flesh' union, all the large texts were verses dealing with salvation in the name of Jesus Christ.

Stephen Green, National Director of Christian Voice, said today: 'Last year, when our successful campaign against Jerry Springer the Opera finished up in Brighton , we were accused by homosexuals attending the doomed production of wanting to stifle free speech. I guess I shouldn't be too shocked at the hypocrisy of the same people doing everything they could to silence our freedom of speech at the Brighton Gay Pride this year.

'However, Sussex Police ensured there was no 'heckler's veto' and safeguarded our right to freedom of association, freedom of religion and freedom of expression. The approach of the senior officer on the day was all the more commendable as his own Chief of Police, Joe Edwards, unprofessionally identified the whole Sussex force with homosexuality by walking with the liars of the Gay Police Association at the head of the parade.

'Edwards did the same thing last year. It really beggars belief that a chief police officer would rather see decadence and depravity on his patch than righteousness, but as they say up north, "there's nowt so queer as folk."

'Earlier on, before the parade turned up, we had some really good and constructive conversations sharing the Gospel with all manner of people. There was also the opportunity for some preaching and we gave out a good number of the famous "Same-sex love, same-sex sex, what does the Bible say?" leaflets.

'In contrast to South Wales Police, where I was wrongfully arrested last September for handing out the very same evangelistic leaflets, in Brighton I gave them out in full view of the police with no trouble whatsoever.'

Inside Preston Park , there were stalls representing no fewer than seven police forces. Kent, Essex, the Metropolitan Police, Wiltshire, Hertfordshire, Devon & Cornwall (quite a drive) and Sussex, showing off their new Lotus police car, all had stands proclaiming their commitment to diversity and their desire to help homosexuals fabricate allegations of 'homophobia' against all who displease them.

Stephen Green continued: 'It would be amusing in a way if our entirely lawful witness were reported by some sad individual to the same police force who policed it and then logged by them as a homophobic incident. Then again, nothing homosexual activists or the police do these days would surprise me. I wonder if it even embarrassed the police that other stands near theirs revealed the depths of depravity of the homosexual mind.

'As I wandered around, I lost count of the number of outlets selling sexual paraphernalia, articles designed for penetration, drugs called 'poppers' which supposedly enhance sexual activity, 'viagra' for those who can't quite manage it, lubrication to facilitate sodomy, fetish clothing, leather bondage harnesses, and even apparatus to inflict pain.

'The whole thing revolved around sex, and there were people arriving with their children as if it were just a school PTA family fête. Here was a show celebrating all that is most depraved in human sexuality, with stalls selling imitation male body parts not from under the counter but on open display at a child's eye's height, and people were so stupid or irresponsible or careless of those whom the good Lord has placed in their parental care that they were taking little children in to view it all.

'Can the judgment of God be long in coming on such a depraved, immoral, nation as Britain is today? Not only do we allow evil to flourish, we encourage it at the highest levels, we fawn over it, we almost worship it, we take our children along to corrupt their innocence by immersing them in it. Woe on us all.

Footnote: What were the National Front doing turning up half-way down the parade? Homosexuals are not black or Asian as a rule, they are overwhelmingly white, and therefore totally scrumptious from a National Front point of view. If the NF get too close to where we are any time, they'll prompt some preaching against racism from Acts 17:26 and Eph 3:15. Seems they didn't do desperately well, if you can believe their report: http://www.stormfront.org/forum/showthread.php

Funny how the NF have just picked up on the idea of protesting at gay pride events, three years after we started in London 2005. Could it be that some homosexual in the NF has worked out that their presence could devalue ours? No, they aren't that bright, surely? But just maybe the spirit of homosexuality is still as inseparable from national socialism as it was when the Nazi Party began its obscene life in a Munich gay bar.  ttp://www.leaderu.com/jhs/lively.html
