JESUS AND PATRIOTISM
In Luke 19, in the midst of the pomp and glory of the Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem, Jesus begins to weep. He weeps because the city-and, by extension, all Israel—failed to recognize his lordship, and because he knew the impending destruction of Jerusalem. The scene echoed a previous lament over Jerusalem (Luke 13:31-35), where Jesus said, "How often would I have gathered your children together as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, and you were not willing!" (v. 34, ESV).
Jesus, it seems, loved his people, his city, his nation—so much so that he cried over it. He didn't despise his country or wish ill upon it—instead, he wanted nothing but the best for it, and it grieved him to see how his people had rejected his teachings.
Jesus' example of patriotism perfected can provide a guidepost to Christians...

PAUL GOLDING’S POLITICAL CONVICTIONS
- Two convictions for wearing political “uniforms” which was just Britain First merchandise. No other party activists are prosecuted for this.
- One conviction for distribution of leaflets criticising immigration.
- One conviction for “harassing” the Islamist who trained the 7/7 bombers.
- Two convictions for exposing a gang of Afghan paedophile child rapists.
- One conviction for confronting an imam in a mosque who said it’s okay to keep sex slaves.
Seven political convictions in total. The Left make a lot of noise about Paul’s convictions. Judging from above, are you proud of what Paul did?

We are encouraging Britain First supporters to attend the Old Bailey this Thursday to support Tommy Robinson, who faces prison.
Party leader Paul Golding may be in attendance, but has a grandfather who is very ill so will have to see how the situation progresses.
If you can make this important protest, please do so. We need to show unity and friendship during this important time. OCS
