British Police Threaten To Arrest Christian Cafe Owner For Displaying ‘Offensive’ Bible Verses

October 31, 2019 By CFT Team -- 9 Comments

Following an alleged complaint about ‘insulting’ and ‘homophobic’ material, police in Blackpool visited Jamie Murray, owner of the Salt & Light Coffee House, a Christian-themed cafe, and demanded he stop displaying the ‘offensive’ Bible verses or risk being arrested:

The café has a TV mounted on the wall that displays verses of the Bible from a set of DVDs called the Watchword Bible.

The DVDs provide audio and text of the entire New Testament but the volume is turned down in the café.

Police told Mr Murray they had received a complaint about “insulting” and “homophobic” material being displayed in the café, although they did not tell him the specific texts relating to the complaint.

According to The Christian Institute, Mr Murray was told to stop displaying the Bible verses because it breached Section 5 of the Public Order Act, which forbids the display of offensive or insulting words.

He said: “I couldn’t believe the police were saying I can’t display the Bible. The officers were not very polite, in fact they were quite aggressive. It felt like an interrogation.

“I said ‘surely it isn’t a crime to show the Bible?’ But they said they had checked with their sergeant and insulting words are a breach of Section 5 of the Public Order Act. I was shocked.

“I’m not here to insult or offend anyone, but the Bible is the Bible. We’re always being told that we’re a tolerant and diverse nation. Yet the very thing that gave us those values – Christianity – is being sidelined.

…Spokesman Mike Judge criticised Lancashire Constabulary for its handling of the complaint. He believes their warning contravenes free speech and religious liberty.

“We’ve all seen the police stand by while extremist Muslims hold placards calling for infidels to be beheaded, but woe betides a Christian café displaying Bible texts,” he said.

“Yes, the Bible speaks about morality, of course it does. But the Bible isn’t hate speech. Disagreement isn’t hatred. If a café customer dislikes parts of the Bible, the right response is to take their custom elsewhere – not dial 999.”

Mr Murray stopped displaying the verses while he sought legal advice but has since started running the DVDs again after receiving assurances that displaying Bible verses in public is not a crime.

Sam Webster, solicitor-advocate with The Christian Institute, said there may be grounds for a legal action against the police for infringing Mr Murray’s rights to free speech and religious liberty.

If you believe your history books that Christian England was “oppressive,” wait until you start living in a Jewish England — then you’ll find out what brutal oppression really is.

Just ask the tens of millions of murdered Christians in Russia and the Ukraine.

The Jews now wielding power seem to be under the impression that the source of most “antisemitism” in the world today comes from the New Testament — and if they can just get rid of the New Testament — or at least the passages that depict them as they really are — antisemitism will magically disappear from the face of the earth.

Despite being a “semite” himself, Christ was clearly an unrepentant “antisemite” — and when He returns, we will know who He is because the Jews will, no doubt, accuse Him of being an “antisemite.”

Sodomites will accuse Him of being “homophobic” and “transphobic” — and ‘people of color‘ will accuse Him of being a “racist.”

Of course, they will all hope that Christ will be so ashamed by having these slurs showered upon Him that He will just go and hide in a corner for fear of losing His job — just as everyone is in today’s “England.”

    This was back in 2011… and the police apologised. This is misleading to say the least.

      EXACTLY! i find so many postings of the initial incident, but this one deceptively infers it is “current” (violating Christian ethics pertaining to truth themselves). i only found one account of the apology etc. That was published prominently by Daily Mail back in Oct 2011. For those who are interested in the undistorted saga: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2046959/Police-say-sorry-cafe-owner-threatened-arrest-Bible-DVDs.html

    Their hatred of Christ and His kindred people only confirms that He is indeed the Way, the Truth and the Life. They should rather try to stop the world from spinning than attempt to resist He who has all power in Heaven and Earth. It’d be easier to do and less self-destructive…

    According to God hate is OK.
    “Hate evil, you who love the Lord”.
    Psalms 97:10
    Bible verses scrolling in a coffee shop is not “hate speech”.
    Loving God and His holy Bible is a divine command.
    The evil and hate is the system that wants to shut God out of our lives.

      Don’t forget Romans 9:13, Malachi 1:2&3 , Psalms 139 :21 and revelation 2:6 to name a few…

    Just the other day I wrote an essay on “Hatred”. It is too long to post here. I will abbreviate it…

    The enemies of the Christian people now rule over them. “Hate” is now the greatest evil we face…or so says ‘the establishment’. Problem is, this concept of hatred is designed to only be a one way street. “Hate” laws have literally incapacitated the Christian people of their native countries, refusing them the ‘ability’ to be recognized as the ones being insulted or offended. We are being refused the ability to even acknowledge that we have enemies!

    Wake up Christian peoples, my beloved white Israelites. Convert fully to Christ so we don’t suffer the wrath that is to come, but will help deliver! There are plenty of white men who claim that “when guns are outlawed, I’ll be an outlaw”…but how many REAL men will say the same about the Bible…?

    They’ll get my Bible the same way they’ll get my gun 😉

    What do you bet if it was the Koran being displayed, there would be no problems whatsoever? The truth is now called hate. My jaw literally dropped a few days ago when I was accused of hate speech myself. My crime? Agreeing with someone that said only women get periods. Yes indeed, “men”, trans men, biological women though, get them too. Most sane people would argue it’s not a real man to begin with, which was my point in agreeing only women get them in the first place. Can you imagine how confused a child would be when pointing out these biological facts of life, and the left now insists this garbage be taught to children, that “men” get periods and have babies too? I was called discriminatory and accused of hate speech for stating the truth. These are the times we are sadly living in, when stating the truth is called hate speech. I kid you not. Leftists are truly insane.

    Quote “If you believe your history books that Christian England was “oppressive,” wait until you start living in a Jewish England”

    We already are. The thought-police are everywhere, and we don’t even have to DO (or say) anything to be convicted in zog’s kangaroo courts, where people can be convicted even when the “law” they’re accused of breaking doesn’t exist.

    Worse, accusations no longer have to be checked. To be accused is to be convicted, and for years now we’ve been told that “truth is no defence”.

    What was once the legal system is now a complete farce, with criminals walking free while their victims end up imprisoned and/or having to pay compensation.

    I HATE what this country has become, but even saying that is probably a thought-crime.
