By Ken Silva pastor-teacher on Apr 15, 2009 in Current Issues, Emergence Christianity, Emergent Church, Homosexuality/"Christian"
If you think all of the wicked pro-homosexual rhetoric of this degenerate age within the visible church as typified by Queermergent Adele Sakler And Emergent Village is anything new, then you had better think again.

And Jeremiah tells the wicked of his degenerate age, that “his soul should weep in secret places for their pride.” Jeremiah 13:17. Indeed, sometimes sin comes to such a height, that this is almost all the godly can do, to get into a corner, and bewail the general pollutions of the age.
“If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?” Such dismal days of national confusion our eyes have seen, when foundations of government were destroyed, and all hurled into military confusion. When it is thus with a people, “What can the righteous do?” Yes, this they may, and should do, “fast and pray.” There is yet a God in heaven to be sought to, when a people’s deliverance is thrown beyond the help of human policy or power.
Now is the fit time to make their appeal to God, as the words following hint: “The Lord is in his holy temple, the Lord’s throne is in heaven;” in which words God is presented sitting in heaven as a temple, for their encouragement, I conceive, in such a desperate state of affairs, to direct their prayers thither for deliverance.
