The Charlotte Observer headlined its story this Monday morning, February 13, 2012, “Country’s First Openly Gay Bishop Preaches Inclusivity Beyond Hospitality.”
V. Gene Robinson is widely known for being the first openly gay, non-celibate priest to be ordained a bishop in a major Christian denomination. He divorced his wife and two children in the mid 1980’s to live with his homosexual lover Andrew Marcus, and somehow the Episcopal Church in New Hampshire enthroned him as Bishop in March of 2003.
This enthroning shocked the entire world – not just the church world. It almost resulted in a split between the Anglican Church in England and the Episcopal Church here in America. Many conservative Episcopalians left the church as a result of the insanity of enthroning a practicing homosexual, who divorced his wife and children, to the office of Bishop. Nevertheless this Bishop, enslaved in perverted homosexual sodomy, was lauded yesterday in the openly pro-homosexual pages of the Charlotte Observer.
Several Christians attended the services at St. Martin’s Episcopal Church in downtown Charlotte, to confront V. Gene Robinson in his sin, that he might come to know Jesus and true liberation from the bondage of homosexual sodomy. The Word of God, though often on the lips of Rev. Murdock Smith, Pastor of St Martin’s, has taken a severe beating under his headship over the past several years.
Here is one simple example from the mouth of Bishop Robinson who made it abundantly clear that he is the determiner of what the Word of God says. He exclaimed, “I believe the Bible to be the Word of God but not the Words of God.” Thereby granting himself license to shred the text of Scripture to make it say whatever he wants it to say. I sat amazed and deeply disturbed that his infantile and narcissistic presentation, meant to rationalize and justify his own blatant sin, was actually nailing Jesus Christ to the cross again. It was a direct frontal assault on His Truth, demanding that Jesus “shut-up or die,” and listen to Gene’s interpretation of the truth.
It was at this point that I spoke so that all could hear, but in the decorum of the service; “Gene, homosexual sodomy is called a sin everywhere in the Bible. Sin brings separation from God. Why do you call that which God calls evil, good? God hates sin because it destroys His people, brings death, and leads to an eternity in hell. If we truly love our neighbor who is lost in the bondage of sexual sin, the most loving thing we could do is tell him the truth.”
I realized that we were dealing with a very dangerous wolf. He had no desire to understand but only to express his own opinion. He was clothed in a beautiful Bishop’s smock and gave the appearance that he cared but he came only to scatter, confuse, and destroy Jesus’ lambs. He is confused and conflicted himself and is taking great pains to spread his malady and unbelief to others. He is a liar and a thief. He has made God’s house a den of robbers – him being the chief.
We left the service after the question and answer period, where my wonderful friend Ante Pavkovic stood and read Romans 1: 21-27 and asked the Bishop to please explain that section of Scripture. The Bishop had no explanation and simply pointed out that “…that was then and this is now.”
I next saw Gene in the parking lot standing right next to my car, sneaking a smoke. I asked him how long he had been sober, and he proudly announced that it had been six years since he had his last drink. I asked him about his wife and two daughters, and he told me that he now had two grandchildren. This man desperately needs Jesus. Unfortunately for him, He believes he already has him.
“They perish because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. For this reason God sends them a powerful delusion so that they will believe the lie and so that all will be condemned who have not believed the truth but have delighted in wickedness.”
2 Thessalonians 2:10-12.

Below is Ante Pavkovic’s report of our Gospel Proclamation at St. Martin’s Episcopal Church:
As a Christian who sat through both the service and the question and answer time, I must say that I am appalled at the ignorance or deliberate deception V. Gene Robinson displayed during that time. His complete misrepresentation of what the Bible actually teaches was disturbing.
He loves to use logical fallacies to prove his foolish points. Just because some people PERVERTED what the Bible said in order to justify slavery does not mean we reject what the Bible ACTUALLY SAYS about slavery. Just because some, not many, PERVERTED THE BIBLE in order to oppress women does not mean we reject what the Bible says about men, women, family, husbands, wives, children and marriage. But this is just one of his many tactics—deception. The irony is that Gene is JUST LIKE those who misused the Scripture to justify the above wrong-doings. He has joined them in PERVERTING the Bible to justify his own sexual perversion and deviancy. He is just like the slave-owner and the oppressor of women that he says he despises.
His argument would be no different than if a group suddenly arose and said that the Bible does not condemn adultery, and that we need to be inclusive of this way of life, and that in the past people have used the Bible to condemn those who engaged in adultery. The arguments used to justify something the Word of the Lord plainly condemns—homosexuality , can be used to justify any sinful action. The position of Robinson is simply this, though he will never openly admit it—“I reject the Bible, I reject its teachings, I reject its God, but I come in the name of Jesus to PRETEND I don’t, so I can make you believe we are following the Bible while we blatantly disobey and encourage the things it says are an ABOMINATION in the sight of the Lord” That is what V. Gene is really about.
He is not a minister of God, but a servant of Satan-the great deceiver. The Bible tells us over and over that many false teachers would come in Christ’s name and would deceive many. Two of the signs of a false teacher is an adulterous life, or a homosexual one. In the books of Jude and 2 Peter 2, we are told that prior to the return of the Lord, that the Sodomites would be in the midst of God’s people, those enslaved by their unclean lusts, to deceive and seduce. St. Martin’s Episcopal Church is not a Christian fellowship, but a habitation of every unclean thing and demon-power. All those people are lost sinners who refuse to repent and follow the Lord in holiness, righteousness, and purity, which the Lord graces His followers with so as to live godly lives in this present adulterous and wicked generation.
If you want to see what “wolves in sheep’s clothing” look like, look no further than Bishop Gene and St. Martin’s. If you want to see unbiblical ceremonies that make a vain outward show—if you want to see people dressed up in lavish costumes and robes to pretend they are spiritual, then look no further than St. Martin’s. All the ceremony and pomp is a testimony to their spiritual bankruptcy and rebellion toward God.
Real Christians repent of their sin, their fingers point first to themselves, they seek to justify none of it. They come to the Lord filthy, and Jesus Christ washes our sin away with His precious blood. He fills us with His HOLY Spirit, and causes us to walk in His ways. We want to obey Him because we love Him. No one who justifies sin in their lives or in the lives of others is one of His. Those who promote sin reveal who they really are, no matter what they say. Paul the Apostle warned us about prophets who claim they are of God, but are not. Hear him:
“They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.” Titus 1:16.
This just in from Rusty. Bill Federer is spot on with this analysis. ~ Flip
The saints in Connecticut continue to live out their faith at the gates of hell and the gates are not prevailing. Here are some wonderful stories of those “plucked from the fire” as a result of those fabulous Christians not loving their own lives so much as to shrink from death.

Brodie and Alex (Auriela’s baby saved 3 yrs ago) Auriela and Brenda
Stories from Brenda Rutherford:
This is Aurelia. Wendee and I met her three years ago at Planned Parenthood, where her son was scheduled to die through a horrific abortion. Praise God this mom chose life for her baby! Along the way our ministry has helped this family a great deal with their needs and shared the saving gospel of Jesus Christ with them all. I was blessed to be a part of Aurelia’s pregnancy and the birth of this precious little boy named Alex! He is now a happy, energetic 2 1/2 year old! Aurelia and her boyfriend, Alejandro along with their five children recently moved back to CT from a two year stay in PA. They are currently staying in a temporary shelter. Aurelia is eight months pregnant and suffers from a serious disease and is in and out of the hospital often. After years of prayers for this family they are have been attending church with me for the past month. God is answering our prayers! The other day the boyfriend, Alejandro called my pastor (Hector) at the wee hours of the morning to tell him that Jesus had woke him telling him to get his and Aurelia’s life right and start cleaning house! Please continue to pray for them and their salvation! (Nancy said Brenda told her she was going into the hospital today,so pray for her please).
Back in November at Planned Parenthood, Pam and I spoke to a couple going in for an abortion. This was the couples third attempt. Each time they came they saw us and were convicted, left and rescheduled for the following week. On their third visit Pam and I had an opportunity to speak with Nina and her boyfriend Amando. Amando was crying and expressed he did not want her to abort! We told them we could help. We gave them literature, showed them pictures of their developing baby and prayed for them to let their baby live. They decided to go home! Pam and I have visited them several times with diapers, wipes , clothes and most important we shared Jesus with them, they were both very open to listening. We left bibles, Mark Cahill books along with the 180 DVD and Eclipse of Reason. Nina and Amando have six other children ranging from 1-15 years old. At Nina’s last recent Dr’s appointment the ultrasound revealed……..TWO heartbeats, that’s right…TWINS! A boy and a girl!!!!
I met Michelle, a 17 year old going into Planned Parenthood this past Saturday for a pregnancy test. Colbi and I spent time talking to her about Jesus , gave her literature. She said she attends church regularly. We offered to take her home and get a pregnancy test, she refused and went in for her appointment. Michelle called later that day to tell me she was pregnant, scared and needed help! She also told her mom she was pregnant, who is a Christian, who told her that “abortion was not an option, that it’s murder!!” Her mom told her she would help her also. Sadly Michelle called me yesterday to tell me she went to the Dr and was miscarrying the baby. We prayed and talked a lot, she opened up about her life. I told her she needs to repent of her ways and surrender her life to Christ. She wants to keep in contact, and come next week to my house for bible study. Pray for Michelle and her salvation!!
Here are some pictures of us on the streets, on the left is a man that brought his sister here to interpret.
Stories from Carmen Vazquez:
A few weeks ago Marilyn and I spoke at a church in Bridgeport about abortion and what we do to help women in the ministry. We were able to show the “180” DVD and the video Hard Truth. The Holy Spirit touched many of the people that night and most of them signed-up to join us on the front lines at Summit Center,intercede for those entering the mill. A few days later I received a phone call from a woman. She was very depressed because she had several abortions. She told me that her daughter-in-law had brought home information we gave out at this church. I began to counsel her over the phone and she was crying and telling me how she was tormented thinking about what she had done years ago and wanted to know if I had any help. She wasn’t saved and didn’t attend church. I was able to share with her the love of Christ and all that He had done for her on the cross. She repented over the phone of all her sins and for murdering her babies. She accepted Christ and made Him Lord over her life! She said she felt chills after she prayed and a burden lifted off her. I encouraged her to attend church with her daughter-in-law and she did. I had her make an appointment with Sylvia from Hopeline were they counsel women with post abortion syndrome along with a bible study. She went to her first counseling session and bible study this pass week and she sounded so much better. She shared with me that she is able to sleep better at night. Women are never the same after an abortion. That is why we need to reach out to these women that are hurting in the church with post abortion syndrome. They are afraid to tell anyone. Let us pray for these women to open up and reach out for help. We care about them too!
One of the moms that changed her mind nineteen years ago came to visit us at the mill with her family. Afterward we had breakfast and great fellowship.They are attending a Christian Church every Sunday and we encouraged them to get married. We know that “obedience is better than sacrifice”. Please pray for this beautiful family! They are so thankful for all the help they have received from this ministry and they continue to let us know how grateful they are to God for all He has done in their lives!
Victoria and Vilma (Calvary Life) Yvette and her daughter (6 months old)
Another day a woman walked by and Carmen starting talking to her. She wasn’t going into the mill but asked for prayer that she would get pregnant. Carmen asked her if she was married and she said she was not. So Carmen said “You should get married first, then we will pray that God blesses you with a baby!”
“Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.” 1 Corinthians 6:19-20
We thank God that two security guards have left the killing center recently! (Alan & Joe) We pray that God will bless them in their new jobs! We have another security guard now so please pray for his conviction too. Working at a death camp is sin and their checks are signed with the innocent blood of little boys and girls that did not choose to die. These precious little children are created in the image of God. We are also grateful for some new soldiers joining us out on the frontline: Vilma, Victoria and Heather. We welcome you. Like )Pastor Ed Martin said “If one person stands at death’s door and recruits just one person, we now have the POWER OF TWO. If both of these people recruit another person to stand at death’s door, we have the POWER OF FOUR. Again, if these four people recruit another person, we have the POWER OF EIGHT, the POWER OF SIXTEEN and so on until the TRUE POWER OF THE CHURCH STANDING IN THE POWER OF THOUSANDS. BUT IT ALL STARTS WITH THE POWER OF ONE.”
“Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always preservers.” 1 Corinthians 13:4-7
So please join us as we reach out to those who find themselves where they should not be! (3787 Main St. Bpt. Tues. Fri. Sat. 8 AM- 10 AM) Jesus is the head of the Church. We are His body. We are His mouthpiece, His Hands, His feet. If not us, then who? If not now? Then When:? If not here, then where? Please… just show up and see what God will do. It is such an awesome privilege to co-labor with Him! (the Lord of Lord and King of Kings)

Three days ago, Ron Paul gave this tortured answer to a CNN reporter concerning the case of a child conceived as a result of rape. One minute long.
Jo Scott just wrote this riveting article concerning the Susan G. Komen cover-up of the abortion/breast cancer link. The real reason Komen stopped funding Planned Parenthood has far more to do with its own sin than concern over Planned Parenthood’s being investigated by state and federal authorities.
Susan G. Komen is afraid of being found out that it has been hiding a truth it has known for almost twenty years. Abortion is the leading cause of breast cancer in this country. 40,000 women die every year as a result of breast cancer. The very organization that raises billions of dollars to find a cure for breast cancer is actually the greatest purveyor of it.
Like the cigarette companies before it, Susan G. Komen is making billions, knowing all the while that it is hiding the real truth about the deadly relationship that exists between abortion and breast cancer. ~ Flip
I have never met Shaun McDonnell, but I wish there were more Christians like him. Here is his firsthand account of Shaun’s very first trip to an abortion mill. It was the “Orlando Women’s Clinic” (OWC). You remember this mill at our National Event this past July in Orlando, Florida. You will also remember the man Shaun ran into at the mill – John Barros. John has been faithfully proclaiming Christ outside this mill every day except Saturdays for the past two years. This is a great story. Read it here via lifesitenews.com

The devil never retreats from the ground he attempts to take unless the Church of Jesus Christ forces him to retreat. This is just the way it is on this earth, whether or not we like it or agree with it. The devil is always doing his best to shut us up. This article in the Times –Picayune describes his latest attempt to remove street preachers from proclaiming Christ on Bourbon Street in New Orleans. The preachers are still preaching out there as of today. The police aren’t quite sure about this new city ordinance and how many suits are going to be leveled against the city. If the Church of Jesus Christ rises up in New Orleans and storms the gates of hell on Bourbon street – believe me – the gates of hell will not prevail. Never have, never will! ~ Flip
Bible-thumping on Bourbon Street at night barred by ordinance
Published: Friday, January 27, 2012, 11:00 PM Updated: Saturday, January 28, 2012, 7:55 AM
When the New Orleans City Council passed an ordinance in October prohibiting “aggressive solicitation” by people who allegedly harass or intimidate French Quarter residents and tourists while asking for money, it included a seemingly unrelated provision that attracted no attention at the time.
Alex Brandon, The Times-Picayune archiveAnti-gay campaigners were photographed on Bourbon Street during Southern Decadence in 2003.
That sentence, almost at the end of the eight-page ordinance, said: “It shall be prohibited for any person or group of persons to loiter or congregate on Bourbon Street for the purpose of disseminating any social, political or religious message between the hours of sunset and sunrise.”
Although the law, sponsored by Councilwoman Kristin Gisleson Palmer, spelled out the justification for the crackdown on aggressive panhandlers, it offered no explanation for the blanket ban on letting people assemble on Bourbon Street at night to voice their views on politics or religion.
When someone complained about the law this week, however, it was not to challenge it as an infringement on First Amendment freedoms. Instead, former mayoral candidate Leo Watermeier complained to Palmer and Councilwoman Jackie Clarkson in public emails that religious demonstrators, sometimes with large signs and bullhorns, have been showing up on Bourbon Street on Friday and Saturday nights, yet police have taken no action against them.
Watermeier wages an annual battle with the small group of anti-gay campaigners who show up during the Southern Decadence festival, using bullhorns and picket signs to convey their message that homosexuality is evil and that its public celebration during Decadence is particularly abominable.

This article just in from Ken and Jo Scott who had a run in with hundreds of Ron Paul supporters yesterday afternoon while they were manning their post at the “Planned Parenthood of the Rocky Mountains” abortion mill. Evidently Ron Paul was hosting a great rally at the large hotel across the street from this abortion mill, in Denver, Colorado. The meeting between the gentle Christians living out their faith at the very gates of hell and the Ron Paul supporters may surprise you.

Ron Paul Followers Lack Moral Compass
Jo Scott, January 31, 2012
At noon today Ron Paul made a campaign stop at the Renaissance Hotel at 3801 Quebec Street in Denver. Hundreds of enthusiastic supporters filled the hotel parking lot and spilled into the surrounding neighborhood.
Directly across from the Poplar Street entrance to the hotel is Planned Parenthood’s abortion facility which encompasses the entire block. Paul’s supporters parked bumper to bumper around the block and filled two abandoned parking lots across from Planned Parenthood’s Pontiac Street entrance. As they parked their cars they were met with our daily pro life vigil outside the abortuary.
We expected to meet people who would be at least sympathetic to the pro life message but nothing could be further from the truth. We encountered hundreds of Paul supporters who were not in the least interested in plight of the unborn. Some were vulgar and mocked us, calling us idiots. Others insisted that abortion is a “states rights issue.” I came up with a slogan for them. “She is a child, not a state’s rights issue.” Others proudly shouted “Pro Choice” while displaying various obscene gestures. And the handful of Christians that stopped to talk to us about Paul’s pro life stand stomped off as we presented proof that he is not pro life.
It was shocking and extremely discouraging to see the mind set of Ron Paul’s supporters. It quickly became apparent that they are willing to unravel what’s left of the moral fabric of our nation for their own selfish purposes. Rep. Paul’s hands off approach to social issues like abortion, homosexuality, drugs, and prostitution has united the fringe, single issue voters, and given them a platform. The Christians were satisfied that he is a constitutionalist. They didn’t consider for a moment that Rep. Paul is endorsing, even promising to legalize immorality.
It was evident to us that a country run by Ron Paul would be no better off than a country run by Obama. Oh bummer…
Knowing that very soon it is not going to be able to continue covering-up the abortion/breast cancer link, Susan G. Komen has decided to stop funding Planned Parenthood. Susan G. Komen and Planned Parenthood are linked at the hip and have been lying to women for years. Satan has used both organizations to unleash his fury against children in the womb and women who choose to abort them. Now the truth is coming out and there are not enough fingers to place in the dike to stop it.
Pray that God will bring this whole sordid and ignominious scandal between these two monstrous organizations to an end.
