Madness governs Northern Ireland

Madness governs Northern Ireland to a degree that would have been unimaginable but a few short years ago!

Mr Jim Allister KC, leader of the Traditional Unionist Party, was correct in what he said of the decision to appoint convicted terrorist, Gerry Kelly, to the panel charged with the task of appointing a new Chief Constable of the Police Service of Northern Ireland!

It is a case equivalent to the ‘devil being put in charge of who enters heaven’!

This is a degree of lunacy that is an indication of just what took root when the DUP entered an agreement to share power with Sinn Fein/IRA. From that foul sowing has sprung the innumerable manifestations of our society in the grip of a blind mania, born of a rejection of the wisdom and truth of God’s Word.

For the cause of that departure we point an accusing finger at the ecumenical ‘false prophets’ of the main churches here in Ulster.

Here is a report in the ‘Belfast News Letter’ which contains the comments of Mr Allister.

Sinn Fein involvement in selecting new PSNI chief constable branded ‘perverse’

The inclusion of a former IRA bomber on a panel responsible for selecting a new PSNI chief constable has been branded “perverse” by Jim Allister.

The TUV leader said that having Sinn Fein’s Gerry Kelly involved in the process is the outworkings of the “constant pandering to republicanism”.

Former chief constable Simon Byrne resigned from the post earlier this month after a High Court judge ruled that two probationer constables had been unlawfully disciplined for an arrest made following an event commemorating the 1992 Sean Graham bookmakers massacre.

Gerry Kelly has been an MLA for North Belfast since 1998 and sits on the NI Policing Board. (more…)

A very big lie

This headline appeared on the local BBC news website this morning.

Derry declared UN International City of Peace

This most undeserved ‘honour’ was bestowed by that organisation which is but a ‘den of lying, poisonous vipers’, the United nations!

David Latimer and his ‘friend’, the late IRA terrorist leader, Martin McGuinness

This headline appear in a newspaper just under three weeks ago.

Molotov cocktails thrown at police in Derry with KIDS involved in riot

Parents of such junior terrorists must bear much blame for the actions of the children involved in these riots and I am sure that many would have encouraged their offspring to engage in such lawlessness.

Londonderry, or ‘Derry’ as Irish republicans would insist on it being called, was the ‘birthplace of the 1969 riots which in turn gave rise to some 30 years of IRA terrorism.

It still harbours the offspring of that terrorism in the form of the ‘dissent’ IRA, an republican group which is extensively striving to re-ignite the terrorism of former years.

This is a familiar headline in recent years.

Police uncover weapons in Derry ‘dissident hide’

Yet the UN has the brazen audacity to speak of this city as a ‘city of peace’!

In truth, it has long been a city of terror, murder, rebellion and persecution! The ‘Fountain Estate’, within the city was a Protestant enclave of some 1500 people. That has been reduced by over 80% by constant attacks by Roman Catholic republicans.

Read the following report from some 5 years ago in the nationalist, ‘Irish News’.

Protestant enclave once a thriving community

The article, dated 10 July, 2018, commendably reports that: “Despite the dramatic drop in its number of residents, the interface has been repeatedly targeted in sectarian attacks during contentious periods – with residents saying that a ‘siege mentality’ still exists.”

The UN shamefully honours such activities by the republican majority within this city.

Naturally, the enemies of truth and righteousness hail this honour. The BBC reports contains these comments.

“The city and district’s inclusion in the prestigious initiative was led by the former First Derry Presbyterian Minister, Rev David Latimer. Rev Latimer has worked on numerous peace and reconciliation projects, many involving local young people. ‘If people are enjoying security, prosperity and quality of life then they will not think about lifting up guns and bombs.’ ”

Latimer is a rejector of the true gospel of Christ, a notorious apostate from Biblical truth. His endorsement gives an insight into the thinking behind the UN announcement and but proves the sickening deceitfulness behind the bestowing of this dubious ‘honour’!

The ‘partiality’ of the ‘Impartial Reporter’!

On Monday 18th September, I received the following email at 8.03 am.

Hi Rev Foster,

Long time, no speak.

Rodney Edwards here, now the Editor of The Impartial Reporter.

I would be very keen to feature you in the paper this week regarding your comments on the DUP and a ‘United Ireland’.

Would you care to expand on those thoughts in a 900-word piece?

At 11.29, I sent in the requested article. However, unsurprisingly, it was not received with enthusiasm by the ‘Impartial Editor’.

I set forth excerpts from his response.

Thanks, Rev. Foster.

The term ‘sodomy’ is pejorative and, indeed, offensive to very many. Can I change this to homosexuality?

I have a responsablity, (sic) you will understand, to be careful with our use of language and not to cause offence.

I defended my position and refused to allow any substitution of the Bible term ‘sodomy’. (more…)
