Confessor Scott Roeder Sentenced

Confessor Scott Roeder was sentenced to life imprisonment yesterday. Showing his commitment to justice and his acceptance of G-d's will he did not recant or show negative emotion. He continued until the last moment to try and save the judge, the Damned Warren Wilbert. He now becomes the leading political prisoner in America and deserves our full prayer and support during his illegal and immoral incarceration.

Some may not understand what an exalted personage Scott is. In ancient times, a confessor was thought to be a saint. Wikipedia says: the term confessor's oldest use is to indicate a saint who has suffered persecution and torture for the faith, but not to the point of death. The term is still used in this way in the East. In Latin Christianity it has come to signify any saint, as well as those who have been declared blessed, who cannot be categorized by another title: martyr, apostle, evangelist, or virgin. As Scott is now a living saint, we are privileged to be able to ask him to intercede with the High Priest Jesus for a our sins. Having given up his life to save numerous others, Scott may now minister to each of us in a greater way.

It is, of course, incumbent on us to try to get him free so that he may have a wider opportunity to intercede for us. You may do that by writing Governor Mark Parkinson and requesting that he pardon Scott, but do not count on it. I suspect it is G-d's will to allow Scott to continue incarceration among those whom G-d most wants to save for he promised to set the prisoner free.

During this Easter week, Christian everywhere should remember Scott when they think of Yeshua climbing the hill to be executed and we should rejoice with all the angels that he chose to change the Law and allow each of us access to the saving power of his body and blood.

I for one will be dedicating my kiddush tonight to St. Scott and urge all of you to do the same.
