The vilest offender who truly believes, that moment from Jesus a pardon receives.

It’s very good to be a guest of St Peter’s School in York this evening for a magnificent fireworks display to celebrate the foiled bomb plot of one of their famous old boys.
Remember, remember, the fifth of November, gunpowder, treason, and plot. I see no reason why gunpowder treason should ever be forgot. Holler boys, holler boys, let the bells ring! Holler boys, holler boys, God save the King!

The Draft Conversion Practices Bill is not needed. Abusive coercion is already illegal. The draft Bill is being pursued by many as an avenue that will block people from coming into contact with the transformative truth of the Christian faith.

Can someone remind me what evidence there is for Napoleon Bonaparte besides what is claimed in all the collected historical documents about Napoleon Bonaparte?
Can someone remind me what evidence there is to authenticate what is claimed in the Bible, besides what is claimed in the Bible?

It was a real joy at our Northern Diocesan Synod to receive The Revd Chris Hegg into the ministry of the Free Church of England from the Church of England Diocese of Blackburn.

Please beware of those ‘clergy’ and ‘churches’ that seek to win a following and grift an income by exploiting political grievances. They don’t care for you, and they don’t care for the Kingdom of God. They are worldly and ruthless.

Don’t turn a blind eye to criminal behaviour just because you agree with someone’s politics.

The right outcome. I too have faced harassment by one of his associates.

I’ve had enquiries asking why the ‘Confessing Anglican Church’ hasn’t done anything about the serious situation in Morecambe. I share the concerns. I don’t know the answer. I’ve had to write to the relevant authority 25 times since April as incidents have occurred. (1/2)

The first 3 communications were answered but not satisfactorily. The following 22 communications haven’t been answered at all. I assume that the CAC is content with the events that are unfolding there. As readers know, I am pursuing the issue via a multiagency approach. (2/2)

Sadly this serious situation is ongoing. My door is ever open to those affected and concerned groups and individuals. I encourage those affected to make reports to Prevent and the Police.
I’m receiving further concerns about this situation. My door is open, and please can I encourage concerned individuals and groups to report directly to Prevent and the Police too.

I too have been on the receiving end of harassment from ‘Tommy Robinson’ associates. They left me a voice note saying ‘We’re coming for you.’ They used someone else’s device to do it as I had already blocked them. I published the relevant sections of it online. @DailyMailUK

Very much looking forward to being with the saints at St George’s Blackburn this Sunday, where I’ll be leading and preaching at the 10.30am service of Morning Prayer. Do join me if you’re in the Blackburn area.
