A group known as soulforce is coming to CBC on March 12, 2007. They sent a letter to the President expressing a desire to dialogue with our students about being Gay Christians. They do not like our CBC's statement on the homosexual lifestyle and want us to accept them as fellow Christians.
They were sent a letter informing them that we would not change what we thought about the matter and we are not interested in a dialogue with them.
They are coming any way and called the Chief of Police and told them they were coming and expected to be arrested.
"Soulforce" is Rev. Mel White's outfit and is definitely on the cutting-edge of gay provocateurdom. I actually read Mel White's autobiography of fourteen years ago and thought he was at least worth listening to. I've seen him on talk shows more recently and am unable to recongnize the burly, balding lump of mean as the same man.
I have a suspicion he is HIV-positive and is on testosterone-replacement therapy (anabolic steroids) the same thing that sent Andrew Sullivan off the rails.
Yep, they just want to get in your face. They lie when they say they just want to be left alone. They won't be satisfied until they have the sanction of the law behind them and they will keep pulling these stunts until they get it.
Your nephew is gonna need to do a bit more than just pray. Make sure the cops are present and have multiple video cameras to capture any violence or obscenity-screaming on the part of you-know-who.
"Dialoging" is the last thing on their self-pitying, self-righteous, vindictive little minds.
"expected to be arrested"
says it all
The possibility that degenerate activists are actually Christians is slim to none. A Christian, though found to sin occasionally, could not work to degenerate the Bride of Christ. But Satan would love to do it, if he can find dead souls ready to serve.
Sounds like those anti-war protesters that block the military base here in Washington State. They know all they will get is their hands slapped.
Your nephew has our prayers!!!
The fact that they are coming anyway and have already called police ahead of time indicates that what they really wanted was to force the college to change it's view. They are seeking to make this into a publicity stunt, IMHO, so the media can portray the college as full of 'those mean bigoted Christians'.
Your nephew has our prayers!!!
Thanks

I lift up all, that the True Love of Christ may be revealed...
may all who truly follow Christ be made strong, and may those who merely pretend to follow Christ be made real. In all things, may Christ be glorified; by our actions, may God be known!

INDEED.
Multiple cameras, multiple angles . . . lots of tape/memory.
There is no such thing as a "gay Christian". Your either gay or your a Christian.
Acts 3:19 Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord.
Mel White is trying to crown himself as the king of Sodom...
Here's a couple of reviews of what happened last year when Soulforce visited Abilene Christian University (a conservative Church of Christ college - the non-instrumental, Stone Campbell tradition, not the United Church of Christ), I hope they help.

Canadian prayers up as well to protect your relative from the ungodly onslaught of liberal faggotry.
BTTT
Your nephew has my prayers.
Gay Christians?
No such thing.
You're either one or the other.
Prayers upward.
They love the attention - it's what their self-centered lives are all about.
We are sent as sheep among the wolves. I pray that all concerned will ask and receive wisdom and protection from God. I pray that the Lord would break the bondage of lies from their minds and that they be drawn to the love of Jesus.
well said.
Thanks for letting us know.. prayers for all concerned. This will be interesting for the students to observe. It will not enhance the GAY movement at all... just have them more despised/rejected.
Betcha they called the news media and told them the same thing. Sounds like this could be a real show. I expect to be hearing about it.
Christian and homosexual? This is hard to swallow; for what did God smite Sodom?
Details, details...
Rom 1:22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
Rom 1:23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
Rom 1:24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
Rom 1:25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
Rom 1:26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
Rom 1:27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was meet.
Rom 1:28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
If they are celebate than OK.
Yeah, this group came to my alma mater, Lee University (TN). IIRC the president sent a letter to the student body and the parents, stating that Soulforce would be coming and that they would be not be granted a public forum. Basically the group was allowed on campus, they even sat through a chapel service, but no one took their bait and after a couple of days they left quietly.

As a Christian, I have always felt the Springfield, Missouri was a major fortress of the Bible belt. Now that the Sodomists have taken most of the nation, it is on their radar and has evidentlly become the target of a search and destroy mission.
Capture everything that occurs that day on video to be used as evidence. Remain totally non-aggressive but firm and clear in any communication with them. The one who keeps his head and emotion in check during confrontation, has the advantage. Give them no opportunity to claim victimhood.
Well, do you or don't you?
If you do, you are obliged in love to correct or even rebuke them.
If you don't, I don't see that you have a problem.
Sounds like it has been handled correctly so far. There is nothing to talk about and the students don't need this.
Maybe the school could alert Fred Phelps to work as a buffer?
I say that with an ounce of sarcasm, but it might work.
Homosexuality is only about recreational sex.
This is why they hide behind the term "gay".
The fact is they can not discuss how they pop their orgasms because it would revolt the general public just as sex with animals revolts the public.
I join in prayer for your nephew!
1 Corinthians 6:9-11.
9 Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, 10 nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, will inherit the kingdom of God. 11 Such were some of you; but you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God.
My mother and her girlfriend claim to be Christian and they occasionally go to the Unitarian Church(a.k.a. The Church of anything goes). However being a Christian is more than just speaking, it is getting your hands dirty and living the lifestyle that is required by God.
Thank you for the encouragement!
