April 5, 2012 opened a revelation to me that was devastating. The Premiere of the Province of Alberta spoke out against a man, who is a pastor, and also running for the legislature in the current election. The Premiere stated that it "Blew her mind" that this man's blog would be Anti-Gay in this day and age and suggested he was not fit to run for government office.
I have read the blog and in no way is it any more anti-gay than it is anti-sinner. What the man is implying is that we (everybody) were born with a sin nature and unless we accept Jesus as Lord and Savior and are washed in His Redeeming Blood, we will go to Hell. This is in fact the basic tenant of the Christian Church. There's a very basic and simple theology here. It consists of three tenets. Devil = Bad, Jesus = Good, Bible = Answer to every problem. If, the Premiere of Alberta, therefore, speaks out against this blog she is actually speaking out against Christian values and therefore is Anti-Christian. I never thought this would happen so soon, but there it is. How could this be rectified? The Lady who now occupies the top spot in the Alberta government should apologize and then step down from her position. I'm sure if she had come out against gay rights instead of Christian rights she would have already been asked to step down. We as Christians are only asking for equal rights under the constitution. Do the right thing Allison Redford and step down.
