Paraphrasing..........
“If you are ashamed of me on earth, I will be ashamed of you at the last judgment.”
“If you are ashamed of me on earth, I will be ashamed of you at the last judgment.”
Entirely appropriate and relevant, thank you.
I would suggest also that if there is truly Justice in the Universe, the ones who should be most harshly judged, as in your statement, should be those who have placed the clergy in the UK in the awkward and untenable position of having, apparently, no other legal option than to conduct themselves as though they are ashamed of God and of their worthy Mission, which I'm sure they are not.
It is indeed entirely shameful that the Government has created a situation where the clergy must apparently cower and hide like frightened little rabbits, lest they be cut down by marauding hordes of thugs who brazenly and shamelessly run wild thanks entirely to the Government's breathtaking incompetence.
