TAKING A STAND AGAINST VIOLENCE AND IMMORALITY

Taken from the "Revivalist" Decmber 1986!

A Statement on behalf Of the Free Presbyterian Church of Ulster issued by the Government and Morals Committee of the Church

"On behalf of the above Church we wish to express our absolute abhorrence and disgust at the unmitigated filth and blasphemy which is contained in the Christmas publication called "COMIC RELIEF".

We wish particularly to condemn in the strongest possible language the vile and hideous attempt to besmirch the Holy Name and Person of the Lord Jesus Christ. The references to the Virgin Birth, Sinless Life, Miracles, His atoning death and resurrection are hellish mockery, the lowest form of blasphemy.

We wish also to underline our total resentment of the vile, explicit and obscene language used throughout the whole book. Furthermore we believe such a publication can only pollute the minds of its readers and encourage violence and immorality.

The Word of God says: "Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death." (James 1:15).

In conclusion we find it inconceivable that such a corrupt publication should be circulated throughout the Nation, under the guise of helping to support charitable organisations such as Save the Children Fund and Oxfam who are the main benefactors of the proceeds from this publication.

As a Committee we call on Princess Anne, as President of Save the Children Fund and the leaders of Oxfam to disassociate themselves from this iniquitous publication.
We will be writing to Princess Anne on this matter. "

From 2006 until the present date, the Presbytery (ladies sewing circlce would be a more apt description) of the Pink Presbyterian denomination have by their silence, encouraged VIOLENCE AND IMMORALITY.

The spiritual breeding ground for the St Andrews Agreement was not to be found in the Babylonian denominations, it was spawned from the Presbytery of Pink Presbyterianism!
