Comments on: When a tract repels http://www.metacatholic.co.uk/2008/03/when-a-tract-repels/ a few graffiti on the wall of life Mon, 01 Dec 2008 20:20:06 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.2 By: Peter Kirk http://www.metacatholic.co.uk/2008/03/when-a-tract-repels/#comment-3560 Peter Kirk Thu, 27 Mar 2008 00:08:51 +0000 http://www.metacatholic.co.uk/2008/03/when-a-tract-repels/#comment-3560 Yes, Nathan, there are such evangelicals, but not many of them in London, and if they are at Westminster Chapel, where Martyn Lloyd-Jones and R.T. Kendall were ministers, I am sure they are not officially representing the church. People from that church do good street evangelism work. Indeed I myself was approached on the street by R.T. Kendall in about 1995, when I happened to be walking past his church on other business, and when I told him I was not just a Christian but a Bible translator he said I had made his day. But I am sure they would not interfere with another church's ceremony, use the kind of language reported, or surround someone until the police were forced to intervene.

I can see them doing the same sort of thing, sadly. I know many evangelicals who believe that RC are going to hell. I can see them doing the same sort of thing, sadly.

Ian mentions Westminster Chapel, but I have challenged him in a comment whether he in fact has any evidence to link these people to that church. I am sure the leaders of Westminster Chapel would be appalled at the sentiments reported. Do we actually know that these people were
