"Because sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily,
therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil."
Ecclesiastes 8:11

And then there are wolves in wolves' clothing.
Report for January 3, 2004

Jesus warned, "Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves" (Matthew 7:15). The leader of the Church of Scotland is an out-of-the-closet wolf who obviously dumped the sheep cover-up a long time ago. Note that he blames "homophobic" Christians for the ravages of sodomite life. Are Christians also to blame because drug users have a higher suicide rate than non-drug users? Are we to blame because prostitutes get more diseases than faithful, married women? The Rt. Rev. Torrance says, "We all require a change of heart," and apparently sees hate speech laws as a good tool to accomplish that end. The truth is, true followers of Christ who have been sitting silent in this critical hour need to take heart and take on such Christ-hating wolves with the sword of the Spirit.

'Homophobic' church slated

The moderator of the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland used part of his Christmas sermon to accuse the kirk of reinforcing hatred of gay people. 

He told a congregation in Aberdeen that the church and the rest of Scotland must shake off its homophobia. 

"These are spiritual matters because hatred may only be cured by a change of heart," according to the Right Rev Professor Iain Torrance. 

The moderator has said he would not be opposed to openly gay ministers. 

In his sermon at St Machar's Cathedral, Prof Torrance said that in 2001-2002, there was a 200% increase in cases of syphillis among those having gay sex but that sufferers were still too afraid to seek help. 

"That fear in turn testifies to a persistent homophobia in society at large. 

Suicide attempts 

"It is almost 2004 but gay young people in Scotland are four times more likely than others to report a serious suicide attempt," his sermon continued. 

"We all require a change of heart because the church not least has contributed to the prevailing homophobic mindset." 

On the day that the murdered teenager Jodie Jones was buried, the church's press office received 38 calls in 10 minutes on the moderator's views on gay ministers. 

"Which was the event of greater importance," he asked. "How may we be set free from such compulsive and consuming obsession?" 

'Brave programme' 

Prof Torrance also welcomed the Scottish Executive's proposed Anti-social Behaviour Bill as a "brave and relevant programme". 

"A parliament which is willing to address Scottish issues with Scottish legislation is much to be welcomed. 

"But there is a limit to what can be done by legislation. 

"No number of acceptable behaviour contracts can assuage the self-hatred, loss of confidence and despair which is at the heart of the issue."
