This was the breaking headline news on WorldnetDaily.com this morning: "Government to pastor: Renounce your Faith!"
According to the article, the Canadian government banned the pastor from ever preaching against homosexuality and fined him $5,000! (Click on the link above to view the whole article). Not only that, but he must apologize for "damages for pain and suffering" to the activist who complained of being hurt!
This is what I wrote about in my last post of why we as Christians really need to wake up and take a stand against homosexuality as a whole, because soon (if not already) our freedom to practice our faith will be taken away! I know we shake our heads and think, "no, not in our country" but just take a look at how far the homosexual agenda has already come. Did we ever think our kids would be subjected to learning about kids with 2 daddies or 2 mommies in schools today? Or that sexual education now includes teaching homosexual sex? I think just 10 years ago we wouldn't have thought it but now we are being forced fed homosexuality in most areas of our public lives right now.
How do we speak out against it? No, I don't mean by picking up placards and marching, or getting into unfruitful shouting matches, but by having discussions whenever the opportunity presents itself. First equipping ourselves in the Word of God, making sure our lives are in step with God's will, then going about and sharing God's truth. But remembering to find the right time to do so!
Even in the Bible in Ecclesiastes, King Solomon tells us that:
Wake up Christian sisters and brothers!

"To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven:" vs 3:1So, let's pray with the guidance of the Holy Spirit, that we find that right time to speak the truth to those that need to hear about homosexuality and any other transgression of God's laws that conflict with man's laws.
Wake up Christian sisters and brothers!
