Open Letter to SPD President Regarding Preacher's Defense Of Pederasty In Sermon

On 3 March at Wallsend Seventh-day Adventist Church in Australia, Brenton Stacey (Public Relations Officer at Avondale University College) gave the sermon. Mr. Stacey said that the Roman Centurion and his servant whom Jesus healed in John 8 were in a sexual relationship.

This troubled a young Seventh-day Adventist member, Claire Parker, who wrote this open letter to the President of the South Pacific Division. Claire’s letter:

The Bible says “Do not receive an accusation against an elder except from two or three witnesses” (1 Timothy 5:19). It also says in the next verse that those who sin openly should be rebuked openly, that others might learn from their experience (v. 20).

Claire Parker is studying journalism and law at Newcastle University, Australia. Like many other faithful members in Australia, Claire is committed to the truths of the Bible and our endtime Message.
