Calls to "repent" disrupts gay bishop's "sermon.'

Openly gay US bishop Gene Robinson was forced to halt a sermon at a west London church after being heckled. As Bishop Robinson began his sermon a member of the congregation repeatedly called him a "heretic" and said "repent, repent, repent".

He began his sermon by saying how sad it was that the Anglican Communion was tearing itself apart. But he was stopped when the man in the congregation shouted that the schism was the bishop's fault. The man's protest was followed by slow hand-clapping by members of the congregation, and Bishop Robinson halted his sermon while a hymn was sung and the protester was escorted from the church in Putney, south west London . . . .

Other comments by the bishop: "When someone stands up and says homosexuality is an abomination, does that make you want to get to know God?"

My response: If God says homosexuality is an abomination, why would you continue in the very thing He hates? People like the bishop put forth a god that does not exist, a god that tolerates, condones, approves, loves the same sins the world does. "You adulteresses, do you not know that friendship with the world is hostility toward God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God." (James 4:4)

Another comment: "You know, whatever you think makes you unworthy, I don't think God wants to hear it any more." No, your god does not want to hear it. The God of the Bible already knows what your heart is like, no matter what you think of yourself. "The heart is more deceitful than all else and is desperately sick; Who can understand it?" (Jeremiah 17:9) Bishop, our Lord Jesus Christ healed more sick, lame and demonized people than we will ever know. Which one did He turn away because He was tired of what He saw and heard? To your knees, man--and to your Bible!

Yes, bishop. Do repent. "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, nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, will inherit the kingdom of God." (1 Corinthians 6:9-10)
