The gentleman in question who has since kept a low profile was not a ‘member’ of that particular church – no Church of England church has a ‘membership’ anyway, but the man in question was certainly not a regular attender at that church. The church in question is very liberal.

My other feeling on this whole matter is that the ‘protestor’ just gave the Bishop more material to use. Having read the Bishop’s blog that he created for his tour of the UK, I believe that he genuinely thinks that he is doing God’s will. Of course, he is wrong – but he seems to be caught up himself in the grand delusion.

GCMW: Jonathan, Daniel broke the law. That’s how he ended up in the lion’s den. God is greater than man’s law. I would gladly break any law which prohibits me from speaking out against evil in God’s house.

You may be discounting that God can raise up someone to speak for him at anytime, anywhere even if it is seen as “disruption” Actually, thats exactly what it is. God can use someone to disrupt anything that he chooses. Thats a matter of God’s sovereignty.

Do you know if the man was a member of the church?
Freedom of worship is a right, that is not threatened by denouncing sin in a public place. The man did no physical harm so his actions were to me representative of God anointing someone to call out institutionalized wickedness i.e. den of thieves.

Your point about ‘who were they worshipping’ is quite valid. But that DOES NOT give us as Christian Believers the right to cause public disorder. If we want freedom of worship and then deny it to others, we are hypocrites.

Didn’t Jesus have his disciples go outside and platt him some switches together and beat the moneychangers and sellers with them )

The only reason the heretics and false prophets/teachers continue and continue to grow is because the people support it. “Religion” is just like a family, a business or a neighborhood: they can’t stay in existence without support of it. Paul says to “mark those who are contrary to sound doctrine and AVOID THEM.” Christians keep running to them and defend them almost with their lives. I’ve heard of people who help other people talk about their mates, but if someone say something about their false pastor they’re ready to literally fight. I’m sure the “lay people” in this video has the same spirit of ignorance.

God give us boldness as the apostles requested, even right after they had just been beaten for speaking the truth.

The biggest church disruption happened when Jesus turned over tables and whipped slumbags who had turned God’s house of prayer into a den of thieves. He also yelled at them.

In todays church I guess that is called “disrupting worship”.
