Oldest Christian Festival Distances Itself From Pro-Life Message in Spineless Act of Unfaithfulness (England)
Protestia ^ | August 6, 2024 | staff

Keswick Convention, The oldest Christian festival in the UK, is rightly under fire for distancing itself from a pro-life message after the cowardly, spineless, and soft organization said in a statement that they were “saddened” that a group named Brephos showed up at their event with a non-graphic picture of a fetus in the womb. They asked the group to take down the sign and stated they were “delighted” to be working with police over the incident.

“We are aware that Brephos, an organisation not affiliated with Keswick Ministries, are taking part in a ‘public education’ event in Keswick town today.

“We are saddened by this approach to targeting Keswick Convention visitors which we recognise also impacts others within the town.

“We would like to emphasise that this group has no affiliation with Keswick Ministries. As soon as we were aware that this activity might be a possibility, we contacted the organisers and requested they not use their public display in Keswick.

“Keswick Ministries are delighted to work closely with the police who we have made aware of the situation.”

Theologian Aaron Edwards gives an excellent commenatry on why the actions of this group are so lame and pathetic.

It is pretty pathetic when a “Christian” church cannot find enough conviction to oppose murdering unborn babies. May God have mercy on our miserable souls.

I’m really shocked. They are morally lost for doing this.

This church is just Christian in name only (CINO).

Well, when the likes of Sir Shmarmy are in control, fear for one’s freedom is understandable. Hell, that’s going on in the US today.

Keswick — the convention that mainlined toxic pietism into the evangelical culture. The organization that traded in a faith for ALL of life for an amplified Personal Religious Experience.

SO — is Christianity something to believe and do?

Or something to pretend and feel?
