An elderly pastor was arrested on the streets of London for making "homophobic comments" and telling passers-by that same-sex couples were against "God’s created order".

Pastor John Sherwood and Pastor Peter Simpson were preaching outside Uxbridge tube station in West London on Friday, April 23, when police officers were called on them because of a statement Sherwood, 71, made while "expounding the final verses of Genesis 1".

He told passers-by that families must be "headed by a father and a mother", and that "the distinction within mankind of just two genders, male and female, made in the image of God, constitutes the essence of God’s created order".

Police soon arrived at the scene, saying they have received complaints about "homophobic comments" made by the pastor that were causing "distress" to members of the public.

Officers were caught on video asking him to stop preaching against LGBT+ people, which he refused to do

Sherwood was then told he was under arrest and was asked to come down from his step stool.

The married father-of-two was placed in handcuffs and taken away in a police car before being questioned about what he would do if his children were gay.

Well said....

I think people forget that following God's Word--His standard--His bueprint (the Bible) on how best the world should function here on earth---is the obligation of one who professes belief in Whom He said He is.
It is not a smorgasboard religion where one gets to choose what he/she believes to be truth or of little importance.

In this world, unfortunately, there are negative consequences (99 percent of the time) for speaking the truth of God's Word. Followers of Christ shouldn't be surprised as we are told this in the Word.

It is not "hate" to speak lovingly what God has told us to warn people of.....the results of living any type of lifestyle that is contrary to God's will and way. Sin covers a wide range of behavior..sins of commission and sins of omission.

What specifically is the sin in the lifestyle of two monogamous devout God-fearing, God-believing loving each other until death do part them same sex couple? Put your finger on what it is, how it personally affects you or others, how it is harmful to you or others

This is another lie as well and has nothing to do with the Gospel of the Kingdom of God that all followers of Jesus Christ are called to teach. undecided

Furthering your own hate filled agenda in the name of God is against Jesus Christ. All these Mogs who go about condemning sinners, pretending they do so on behalf of God, are not of God. undecided

I wouldnt necessarily call it a 'hate filled agenda' but will advance its confusion. It's the legacy of shoddy scriptural understanding and extremely bad theology

Of course everyone including yourself are entitled to their opinions, but as for me when I do opinion(s), I always state explicitly that I have done an opinion or I am making an opinion

You see, beloved, the thing, to start with about opinions, is that, you can have your own opinions, but you can't have your own facts. Why? It is because facts, unlike opinions, are incontrovertible. Opinions change, facts dont. You will forever change your opinions, always when it comes up to the face of facts.

Jesus Christ sent His followers out to preach the Gospel of His Kingdom to the world, not to focus on their own mini agenda in His name. Read the preaching of the apostles in the book of Acts and then compare that to what this man preaches and tell me what Truth there is in what this man teaches? undecided

Jesus Christ made it clear that He has not come to condemn but to save. So, tell me, how does condemning people amount to Truth of God? undecided

And before you respond, remember the story of the woman caught in the act of adultery and what Jesus Christ said to her. undecided

That's the problem Mr. Reeves.

The problem beloved, is you're self absorbing and a poster, that is worthy of display in a museum, hence how you are 1000 percent honest and original navel gazing with your threads & posts

eviana3:

When it boils down to rules, its you who cant handle yourself. As for me, God hasn’t yet given me anything or any poster, I cant handle. I thank God for trusting me in that department and for the grace.

eviana3:
[s]I "bug" you so much.....[/s]
I feel admiration of you, for the reason that you actually feel I pay attention to you because you remotely bug me. I promise you that, I know for sure, that the notion of ‘you “bug" me so much…’, is so far from the truth, and so beloved, please change that misinformed view, because you have never in any way, shape or form, ever bugged me

eviana3:

Tsk, tsk, paranoia is most dangerous. Watch it as, it can harm your mental health. Posters, often get mad and defensive about bans, even when in reality, they’re guilty of misdemeanours, to say the least.

eviana3:
Fun fact: When you & your mod buddies hand out Nairaland "Religion section" awards for "Most Unlawfully Banned", make sure you leave out the "3" when engraving my name on the trophy.
Blaming others (i.e. my 'mod buddies') for your ban problem(s), is like blaming donuts, for you being fat. It isnt, the donut, its you. You are accountable for your choice, your action(s) but you dont get that because you’re so blind from the simple truth of cause and effect

Isnt it amazing, where the paranoid mind can take you. Just because you’re paranoid, doesnt mean moderators or anyone, including me, are out to get you.

Fyi eviana3 beloved, I frequently get banned from posting, have my post(s) hidden, have my privilege to post suspended etc, but you dont get to see or hear me whine or howl about it. I just accept it as something at that moment to be unpleasant and difficult to take, to just move on, to find other great and better things to do, and not mope around or about it, like you do

eviana3:
I forgive you guys.....really I do.
Forgive yourself first, as a self absorbed poster like yourself, only can see faults in others, because you often are colour blind to your own fault(s), just as you keep displaying every now and then. Like in this instance, you don’t consider that bans dished you, happen by consequence of you putting yourself where bans can be imposed on you and that you’re responsible for the bans you’re given to saddle with

Gaslighting narcissist posters, like yourself, believe themselves to be above the rules and above the law, that when called out, react by discrediting the moderators and uninvolved others (e.g. BassReeves), portraying them and putting the blame on them for your personal shortcoming, mistakes etc and being the cause for your ban(s) as its always easy to put the blame on others (e.g. moderators and uninvolved others like BassReeves).

Just remember that, your complaints, your dramas, your victim mentality, your whines, your blaming moderators and all your other unmentioned plaintive bleating excuses cries, have never gotten you, even a single step closer, to your goal(s), dreams, desires etc, not even a wished for reprieve. All it seems to have earned you and/or gotten you, is a consistent blacklist residency.

Good night....Nigeria's time.

An elderly pastor was arrested on the streets of London for making "homophobic comments" and telling passers-by that same-sex couples were against "God’s created order".

Pastor John Sherwood and Pastor Peter Simpson were preaching outside Uxbridge tube station in West London on Friday, April 23, when police officers were called on them because of a statement Sherwood, 71, made while "expounding the final verses of Genesis 1".

He told passers-by that families must be "headed by a father and a mother", and that "the distinction within mankind of just two genders, male and female, made in the image of God, constitutes the essence of God’s created order".

Police soon arrived at the scene, saying they have received complaints about "homophobic comments" made by the pastor that were causing "distress" to members of the public.

Officers were caught on video asking him to stop preaching against LGBT+ people, which he refused to do

Sherwood was then told he was under arrest and was asked to come down from his step stool.

The married father-of-two was placed in handcuffs and taken away in a police car before being questioned about what he would do if his children were gay.

I disagree with you on this, but I am not ready and willing to debate you unless I am sure you are not going to delete any post of mine. Guy, I am busy now, but will be back later. You have really crossed the line. It is a different thing if you disagree with the lady Eviana, but for you to be punishing her and deleting her posts. Come on! You are a coward. And I am willing to take this up with you. You have deceived many too long. Come on. Who are you that you think you are a god? Guy, take your time if you do not want me descend on you. You will not like me.

Your other moniker MuttleyLaff. Someone who spotted you (though, I disagreed with him in some areas) made this comment:
DappaD:
BassReeves sounds more and more like MuttleyLaff to me. I just figured it out.

Why are you frustrating Eviana? Disagree with her only on the subject and spot messing around with her. Stop deleting her posts. If you push me further, I will make sure you are expelled as an admin on this forum. What is wrong with you? You know you did it to my old moniker too. If you think I have forgotten. I have not. When I'm banned for what I do, I dont complain. But when I am banned when i know it is a bug, then something is wrong. Are you saying she doesnt know what she has been saying?

I do not care if you have 10,000 monikers. It is a normal thing on NL and no one cares about it. Good people have started protecting themselves because admins like you are causing wahala.

I have given you the last warning, leave her alone. I disagree with her on many issues, and that's it. But when you have admin power, or whatever, and you start using it recklessly, then, you have a low life. You will want to deny it all, but if you allow me to bounce on you, guy.....you will not like me. If you do not stop that rub.bish, you will not like me. I assure you.

Now is the time for you to bug mine too. I swear, that bo.mb I have been keeping will land on you, and you will be the scapegoat. If you are bold, try nonsense again. I will personally take it up with you.

Eviana, post again with your main moniker. Let us see what will happen again. If you can, put a call across to me asap so I can tell you what you need to do to nail the man. He is not above the law. If he thinks he is smart there are other people smarter than him. He will be sacked if he keeps bugging you. He dear not bug it again. I know because he has done it to me too.

I am not the kind who makes people lose their job. But I have warned you. If I have to delete this moniker again to then descend on you full time, I swear...I will. And I will not stop until I make sure you are eradicated as an admin. Deny it, I do not care. But i am warning you....if you bug her again, if you dear bug her again... i swear, younare in a trap already. So, just let it be as it is and leave her alone. I have warned you. I will not start dragging anything with you. I will just bounce to work. And I will sacrifice this moniker again. But be read assured that your time is already over on Nairaland.

Eviana, post again. Let him erase it with the useless spam bot lies, and he will see what will happen to him. He will explain how they bug posts with spam bot by the time he is dealt with.

Stop this early morning joke. Did you read at all? One, it was said to happen in London, i want to hope that you know where London is or at least ask your pastor. Two, the video doesn't show why the man was arrested. Three, arresting people for preaching is not happening for the first time, it has been happening even before Trump. Four, Many sins happened under Trump, he is not the Saviour by any means.
Rest and stop being a sore loser, it's a democracy.
