Evangelical Churches condemn Roseau violence

Wilson described the violence as ‘barbaric’

The Dominica Association of Evangelical Churches is condemning the recent acts of violence which occurred in the City of Roseau.

The Association is joining numerous organizations who have already added their voices towards the condemnation of the attacks which occurred following a public meeting on Tuesday night.

“As a Dominican who is truly concerned and as the Vice President of the Dominica Association of Evangelical Churches I take this opportunity to condemn the barbaric acts of violence perpetrated by persons whose emotions were heightened on Tuesday following the scheduled meeting organized by the United Workers Party,” Pastor Arlington Wilson said in a statement on Thursday.

The meeting was held to demand the resignation of Prime Minister, Dr. Roosevelt Skerrit and his cabinet because of their governance style.

And following the meeting several businesses were vandalized, roads were blocked and fires were set.

“In a democracy persons have a right to demonstrate, but also the responsibility to conduct themselves properly,” Pastor Wilson stated.

He said further that the Bible tells us that death and life lie in the power of the tongue.

“As a result, the authority must ensure that the perpetrators are caught and brought to justice to ensure that all Dominicans enjoy a life a peace, justice and liberty,” the Pastor said.

    The question is pastor why did the layou Christian union church rid u out from their pulpit and the church..u are no longer pastoring at that church from since last August.. ……………………………That’s why Layou Church got rid of you. GO CHECK YOURSELF.

    • February 15, 2017

      Pastors leave churches for various reasons. Sometimes they are dismissed. It is personal and not something we would discuss with an outsider. It is family business. Sometimes a pastor is asked to go where he is needed more. Sometimes he discerns his work in that locality is finished. What is needed now is another pastor with different gifts and a fresh approach.

      Unless you are a Christian who is a member in that particular church and supporting the work financially it is none of your business why a pastor leaves. The man is accountable to the local elders and deacons and under the oversight of his bishop or superintendent. They make decisions regarding the comings and goings of pastors in the boardroom. These are not issues to be discussed in the community by people who have no understanding of the work of God and no vested interest in it.`

      Sincerely, Rev. Donald Hill.

      What a foolish statement to make :!:

      Either you do not work or you do not get paid for what you do.

      The people in Canada who read DNO are laughing because up here we work for a living and get paid for what we do. When I was pastoring churches it was not a 9 to 5 job. I did not only speak three times on Sundays and once or twice during the week, counsel, and do weddings and funerals. My phone was by my bed and people knew I was available if and when they needed me 24/7. The Christian people insisted on paying me. We did not ask non-Christians to support the church. So if you are not a believer in Christ and born of His Spirit you would be welcome. We would not be after your money, trust me.

      Sincerely, Rev. Donald Hill.

  3. “The UN sanctions? Tell the UN to stay out of Dominica’s business.”( The Fictitious One with No Name).

    You call yourself Tell The Facts, The truth Kid On Block, and write under all sort of foolish worthless meaningless fictitious.

    I am going to waste a little more time to you how stupid you are. In the first place you had better be assured the United Nations can cripple Skerrit , and Dominica at random. If you were not stupid, you would have realized that everything used in Dominica are actually imported. We do not produced oil for the production of electricity, we do not produce raw material for making clothes we do not produce sugar, or anything essential to sustain life, except the little agricultural food we produce.

    All the United Nations have to do is implement a sanction on the country prohibiting any country in there world from shipping any kind of commodities to the country, and it will be all over.

    So you had be very careful when you talk crap defending…

  4. ” Bible tells us that death and life lie in the power of the tongue.”(Wilson).

    Wilson, the Bible also teaches nothing must be added nor anything taken away from it, the minute you speak anything that is not verbatim to thus saith the Lord you are adding something false to his words. There is a difference in interpreting the word to adding something which the scripture did not say!

    We read in the Book of Proverbs 18:21 ” Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof!”

    So, I would like your interpretation of what is written in the Bible, and relate it to the violence which took place in Dominica earlier this week. Let me see how you going to do it. For your information that part of scripture pertains to an individuals personal life!

    You see, that is what false preachers like you do, you talk all kind of nonsense using God’s word to do it, people like you are deceivers, dabbling into politics and using God word in…

  5. But God
    February 11, 2017

    To all those of you who are quick to bash anyone who in your mind opposes your party or doesn’t agree with your point of view, I would like to warn you:

    1. Judge not that you yourself be not judged – you are quick to call others liars and hypocrites because you hide behind your electronic devices and type your responses. God knows your life.

    2. Let everyone work out his salvation with fear and trembling – you say that he/she is not a christian, or you refer to him/her as a “so -called pastor/christian. Are you a christian? Have you accepted Jesus as your Lord and Saviour?

    • February 15, 2017

      I cannot imagine a born again man or woman having that attitude towards a pastor. What is this about a so-called pastor :?: This kind of slander is demonic.

      Yes, there are false pastors and fraudulent evangelists. They should be exposed. Weed them out :!: But know this. A true man (or woman) of God who has been duly ordained (appointed) by his (her) church superiors is an ambassador of Christ and an envoy of heaven. That person represents Christ and speaks for God. To slander them is to slander God Himself. Some DNO commentators are placing themselves and their families is great danger by statements they make about pastors.

      *… no man taketh this honor unto himself, but he that is called of God as was Aaron.* (Hebrews 5:4)

      I know this refers to the High Priest in Old Testament times. But I am calling to your attention the principle in the verse. When God Almighty appoints a person to a position of ministry HE stands behind that individual.

      Sincerely, Rev. Donald Hill.

    February 11, 2017

    Pastor Wilson are you living in Dominica or are so blind because of your partisan politics? In God there is no favoritism or partiality.Wrong cannot be Right and right cannot be wrong. When the government is inciting violence on the airways and in political meetings i never heard you and your organization condemn it. Who are you representing, God or are you promoting the agenda of man ? Remember God will also hold you men and women of God responsible for compromising and not living up to the standard of God.

    Think! Beginning with Lennox Linton, how many of you UWP supporters who condone these evil actions, if you were to die today will merit eternal salvation, that God will say, “Come ye blessed of My Father, possess ye the Kingdom. . . . ?”
    Are you people foolish or what that you do not know what Our Lord Jesus Christ taught us about love for one another and doing good? Ignore and reject His teaching as you call His Holy Name, saying Lennox is covered in His Blood. Oh my! It means you condoned Lennox evil actions. You will pay for it to God.
    This is why God will punish you. You say you are Christians yet condone the evil which was committed against the State and your nationals.
    Woe to you! You judge those who do good while you continue to sin with your mouth, mind, heart, soul and body. You are the hypocrites as you do nothing good for Dominica. You will pay a dear price to God for being a Christian and offending Him.

      Let me also say to you that “you say that you are a Christian yet you condone the evil which was committed against the State and your nationals.” When you point your index finger at anyone, just remember that the rest are pointing at you. Those were your your words which have also condemned you. Why is it that you condone what your favourite president is doing? Only a hypocrite would do such a thing. If you really cared about “nationals”, you would not be sputtering out such venom. You should be fair as a so-called christian or rather catholic, which to me is the same but many, like you, differentiate those words. It seems like you are on a quest for your god and only you will be going to be with him. He has sent you to save the world by any means necessary. Well, you have a lot on your hands because some people are just fed-up with your farce and all others who are like you.

      The UN sanctions? Tell the UN to stay out of Dominica’s business. I do not think Dominica needs the UN at all, godless people they are who promote homosexual and lesbian lifestyle and so-called same sex marriage.
      Dominica is a country all by itself. Where was the UN in those days, the time of our forefathers/mothers and when we were born, growing up and attained adulthood? Some of us left Dominica and heard/knew nothing about the UN. Where was it then? We survived without the UN and its advice. Tell the UN to take a back step and seat from the affairs of Dominica. I would like to state more.
      This so-called meeting which was a protest and ended in destruction of business properties was unjustified. The organizers should be arrested and tried for treason.
      Stop wasting your time. What good are you to Dominica? All you do is to criticize. You look at others and not yourself. One day God will hold you accountable for not being a doer, to build and enhance your country.

        I keep calling you a fool, and you perhaps wonder why! Nevertheless, it is your stupid sentiments like this which causes me to deal so harshly with you. You are so stupid, you cannot see nor understand the seriousness of the harm and damage that Skerrit and the Iranian thief has done to Dominica!

        Do you believe that a small rat, a little mouse like Skerrit can contend with the United Nations? If Skerrit is summoned to answer question on the floor of the United Nations do you believe Skerrit is capable of answering to the United Nations? Ad mind you he cannot take Tony along with him to speak for him! Facts, do you know what purpose the United Nations serves?

        The United Nations, can take Skerrit and Dominica down to nothing in less than a hour, with a yes vote, by every nation in the United Nations; they dealt with more mightier nations, than a b nobody like Skerrit. You had better know what saying…

      “What a bunch of hypocrites! What a bunch of wolves in sheep clothing!”
      Since you stated that, you can consider and count yourself in the above. You are no different. You are in the world and could do better for your country.
      If you had sense you will know that Priests and Pastors are responsible for “the souls” of their flock. Their duty is also to inform their flock against destroying the reputation and property of others and to condemn it.
      I would state they are not interested in your consistent criticism when you do nothing good for your country. You are another one, the pot calling the kettle black.
      God is a positive God. He is not negative. He is not a complainer. He does not appreciate people as you with such a character and personality trait which not only destroy you but your country.
      When you die God will ask you, what good have you done for your country. If you have nothing good to present to God then, you know where your soul will end up.

      This does not mean you and others can say and do anything, as it pleases you/them. There is a limit to what people can say and do. If you are a Christian and a practicing one at that you should know better.

Stop the hypocrisy and if you are honest, say it like it is; that is, the truth about what this present regime is conducting as so-called business to fatten their pockets. They do not really care about the poor and neither are you because you all pimp the poor and fatten your pockets as well by telling the congregation to give a tenth of their income to god. Which god? Don’t you know that man has created god to reap innocent people’s hard-earned money? If god is a spirit, as your all preach, why does he need poor people’s money and how do you see god to give him the money? Politicians pastors, preachers, ministers, etc., have a lot in common. All of you together are just bribing the people so that you can have power over them. The masses look up to you all as their gods and are committed to you. It is time for people to use their brains!

  35. The Evangelist
    February 9, 2017

    “In a democracy persons have a right to demonstrate, but also the responsibility to conduct themselves properly,” Pastor Wilson stated. He said further that the Bible tells us that death and life lie in the power of the tongue.

    Your ungodly and very biased letter enveloped in God, reminds me of a church accident that took place at Morne Prosper in 1975, when 28 persons died and those who hated Christianity especially pentecostal, blamed the church, organizers, and the late Holmes William for that accident that happened hours after the late service ended? As preachers we need to think before we write stupid letters.

    What do you mean by “death and life in the power of the tongue”? Don’t tell me you are so blind to take this wonderful verse out of context to suggest that things said at the meeting caused what happened? .

    If anything, the Evangelical church ought to take blame for what happened because like Adam in the garden, we saw the snake coming but we did nothing to stop…

      Blame others and not yourself, as if you are not a Dominican and not living in the world. God will judge you for the good you fail to do.

    February 9, 2017

    Dear Dominica Association of Evangelical Churches and Pastor Wilson, condemning the violence is truly warranted, however, it is of the utmost importance to speak on the cause for the unrest. If you condemn violence and ignore the cause for the unrest you are a hypocrite. Criminals and persons of ill repute have Dominican passports and that does not worry you? You all sit like moomoo and say nothing.

    Elijah stood up boldly for God in a time when idolatry had swept his land. Read the book of 1 King. The Bible you represent has many men of God who stood for what is right.

    Hypocrites all of you. Never condemned corruption in the government. never condemn the government’s selling our passports to ciminals, never condemn the harborig of criminals but now all you want to condemn the violence that come as a result…….

    He said further that the Bible tells us that death and life lie in the power of the tongue.

    As a fellow minister of the gospel I am going to put my religion on a side and give my friend and brother a very swift rebuke for his hypocrisy that is so well wrapped in this article. I agree with him and the others that what took place on Tuesday night was wrong and deserves to be condemned. However, it is highly wicked and hypocritical of him and the Evangelical Churches to tie up what happened on the street, after 6PM with a peaceful demonstration that ended before 5pm. Pastors are you telling us that if your evening service ended at 7pm and pastor went home only to hear an hour to 2 hrs later some church people stayed behind and got involved in a fight, the church has to be blamed for not taking responsibility?
    This is pathetic to say the least

      What occurs in Parliament, in the government belongs there. Let those who are members handle it. If someone was beaten, as an example, then the Church could get involved. Otherwise the Church has to stay out of it.
      What occurs in public, as this violence which are atrocities committed against the State, innocent nationals, business owners, is everyone’s business, Church, State and Society. The Church has a right to condemn it. There is the difference which requires no further explanation.

    What was your price you sir. It seems to me that you so called leaders of the communities emerge from your holes only when it is convenient to do so and not trod on your masters toe.
    There is so much controversy about the PM dealings yet you guys have not uttered a single word about the issues.

    What the hell is going on with Dominicans, do some of you have seaweed and mush for brains. Why can’t you leaders just be straight and for once honest with your own conscience. How do you guys sleep at night,selling conscience for a few dollars more?

    As far as i am concerned, you so called leaders are nothing but extras in the film called, Dominica has Fakenham and the villan in chief is you know who. Grown men behaving like kids not understanding the meaning of being patriotic to country.

    Please get a real life and do something meaningful for your country for once you men of very little spine and backbone

    Dear Pastor I do wish that you address the following the same way.
    1. How can a wanted man by iran living in your peaceful country for months?
    2. CBS 60 said that one of our diplomats is a wanted fugitive.
    3. Today this afternoon on “talk on the block- q95” we heard of an interview with two reporters from USA calling all of us in D.A thiefs and that we are passing illegal oils across.
    4. Did you hear your KING Skerrit call dominicans MUGS?
    5. Did you hear justina telling labor supporters to come dress in red at the protest? Was that wise thinking by her to aggravate citizens?
    6. Did’nt you hear skerrit telling his supporters do not matter where you see the opposition to call them traitors- In the hospital, in the airport, on the beach, in the supper market, anywhere.
    Sir are those words not barbaric?
    Finally are you satisfied with the accountability of this government? Guess what you hipocretes won’t remove skerrit but for sure the Americans and those true shepards for…

    Pastor, are we Dominicans really enjoying a life of peace, justice and liberty ? I agree that the violence in Roseau should be condemned but shouldn’t you also caution the PM about the unsavoury criminals who he keeps company with and who possess Dominican passports ? I lament that while these dual citizen bobolists will still have visa-free access to Europe, soon this may be taken away from the ordinary man like me. Because the EU is serious about protecting its borders from some of the same elements we are happily granting passports…And I wont even discuss orange Hitler and his muslim ban…

      It appears to me where criminals are concerned, he did not murder anyone. You have ample criminals in D/ca to be scared of. Some may not, at present, be criminals. They either have not yet made their debut in the criminal field or not yet caught. Nevertheless, watch out. They are capable of doing more harm to human beings, their very own nationals than that man.
      You people found something to talk about but you lack intelligence. You do not even know a thing about the man and whether the PM knew he was wanted. You have no idea but you opt out and judge and condemn the PM. As you keep condemning, you yourself, one day will have a lot to answer to God for.
      There are D/cans who reside in D/ca who love their country. They support the PM; not Lennox. They are not swayed by all your negative words. They condemn the violence in Roseau. The world knows. I also join them in condemning the violence in Roseau.

      We who also reside abroad are deeply saddened. As many words we have, there are times words are insufficient to express our feelings about this situation.
      The Most Sacred Heart of Our Lord Jesus Christ is saddened. He is crying that some nationals will do this to their own.
      Our Lord said: “Those who harm us; others, harm him.” They will pay for it.
      Romans2:6 – God will repay each man according to his deeds.
