The abuse of children and adolescents by priests of the Roman Catholic
church, the attempt to cover-up these crimes and the chicanery of the
hierarchy whenever their contrivances to hide the truth is exposed is a
scandal that is world-wide in its extent. On this topic, the US
newspaper, “The Boston Globe,” has served the cause of truth as well as
any secular organisation may.
Visit their site and see the special articles on this distressing
matter. Its list of articles is constantly upgraded.
A year of scandal
An interactive timeline of the developing church crisis, featuring photos and audio.
BBC Northern Ireland's "Sunday Sequence" programme on March 25th included an item on the 50th anniversary of the Free Presbyterian Church of Ulster. It comprised a reporter's view of the Free Presbyterian Church and a discussion by a panel of guests. They were Professor Robert McCallum of the Reformed Presbyterian Church, Ed Maloney, a journalist, and Rev. Ivan Foster, a Free Presbyterian minister for over 35 years.

A word to the distressed amongst God’s flock today.
By telephone, by email, by letter, in personal encounters in churches, on the street, in shops and even in the airport, I have been been asked by Free Presbyterians, most of whom are of many years standing, about the events in Ulster between October 2006 and the present day, at the centre of which have been Dr Paisley and the Democratic Unionist Party and the decision to enter a power-sharing government with Sinn Fein/IRA.
Sadness and distress have filled the voices and furrowed the brows of those who have approached me with the oft-repeated enquiry: “Why did Dr Paisley do it?”

The truth concerning funding of sodomites through the Office of the First Minister finally revealed
It has been repeatedly denied that funding for sodomites was ever paid over by OMDFM during the tenure of the previous First Minister, Dr Ian Paisley.
The full facts have now, finally, come to light. The closing statement in this correspondence, though couched in that form of diplomatic terminology designed to soften the sharp edge of truth, nevertheless clearly states that denials issued in the past regarding these payments to sodomites are not supported by the records kept by the OFMDFM.

A little more honesty from the First Minister but . . . . !!
In an interview in the East Belfast Community Telegraph and reproduced in The Newsletter of July 26th, 2008, First Minister, Mr. Peter Robinson MP, MLA, makes some commendable points in defence of the condemnation of sodomy which has seen his wife and fellow DUP MP, Mrs Iris Robinson, come under attack.
However commendable in essence such statements may be, Mr. Robinson does endorse that view which is incompatible with faithful allegiance to the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ which is that Christians may hold a public office which requires them to act in a fashion in which they would not act but for the requirements of their office.

This Silence Is Shameful
By Pastor Ralph Ovadal, Pilgrims Covenant Church, Monroe, Wisconsin, USA
What I am about to describe is a . . . gross spiritual perversion, an orgy of paganism and idolatry masquerading as Christian before a gullible, ignorant world. It was, and continues to be, nothing less than an open assault upon the very person, work, and word of our Lord Jesus Christ--and yet an assault carried out in His own precious name by a church held by billions to be Christian!

The Fallibility of Ministers
By Bishop JC Ryle
10/5/1816 - 10/6/1900
First Anglican Bishop pf Liverpool
(Taken from his book, “Warnings to the churches”) Have we ever considered what the apostle Peter once did at Antioch? It is a question that deserves serious consideration.
