Boxing champ Manny Pacquiao defends natural marriage, gets pummelled by Western press

Feb 16, 2016 

MANILA, Philippines, February 16, 2016 (LifeSiteNews) – Eight-time world boxing champion Manny Pacquiao is the target of a Western newsmedia blitz misquoting him as having said that homosexuals were “worse than animals.”

In his homeland Philippines, Pacquiao is a hugely popular sports figure for winning world boxing titles in eight weight classifications, climaxing with the welterweight championship in 2014. In training for a comeback match in the U.S. in May after losing his title last year, a member of the Philippines House of Representative now campaigning for a Senate seat, and born-again Christian, he is now facing “a storm” of criticism, according to British and American news media, for comments on same-sex “marriage.”

“It’s common sense,” the boxer replied to a reporter’s query. “Will you see any animals where male is to male and female is to female? The animals are better. They know how to distinguish male from female. If we approve male on male, female on female then man is worse than animals.”

2) We’re forwarding the following article ‘Criminal on the Cross’ from Billy Graham’s Grandson regarding the true meaning of Easter.

By Will Graham, Billy Graham Evangelistic Association

The cross means different things to different people. For some it’s just a pretty piece of jewellery. To others it’s a decoration for their home. To Christians it is a symbol of the sacrificial love of Christ and His conquering of the grave.

Dear family & friends in Christ,

1) We thank and praise God for His mighty hand at work at all 5 meetings (2 services & 3 RUAP meetings) in NSW where Ps Daniel and a team recently ministered and spoke.

Many were greatly touched by the presence of God as the Holy Spirit moved very powerfully.

At the RUAP meetings, it was so very encouraging as people got behind the party in so many different ways.

After spending time in prayer, the RUAP NSW State Team worked on their strategy to contest the upcoming federal election.

Sweden: A Church with No Conscience

by Nima Gholam Ali Pour – January 28, 2016

The response from the Church of Sweden to the Kairos Palestine document contained no criticism at all against the massive lies, racism and distortions it contains. More sadly, there seems not to have been the slightest attempt to verify if any of the allegations in it were even true.

A church that genuinely believes in love and understanding would long ago have renounced the Kairos Palestine document, which has been pointed out by serious organizations out as anti-Semitic and racist.

The country’s largest religious institution is therefore helping and encouraging people to study a rawly anti-Semitic, racist document

Attacks against Jews in Sweden have partly originated through such normalization. When the Church of Jesus Christ in Sweden supports an anti-Semitic document, the Jews in Sweden become fair game.

Trump Takes A HUGE Stand For Christianity…Says What Obama Won’t!!!

Conservative Post ^ | 1/18/2016

TRUMP TAKES A STAND…

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump spoke at Christian university, Liberty University, on Monday and said “Christianity is under siege.”

“Somehow we have to unify,” he said. “We have to band together. We have to do really, in a really large version, what they’ve done at Liberty. Because Liberty University has done that,” Trump said.

“You’ve banded together. You’ve created one of the great universities, colleges, anywhere in the country, anywhere in the world. And our country has to do that around Christianity,” he continued.

Mighty Australia Day Prayer & Holy Spirit Revival meetings in Hallam

Dear family & friends in Christ,

What a wonderful weekend it was to see God’s awesome presence at every single meeting and then on Australia Day yesterday at the interdenominational prayer meeting for Australia’s spiritual revival and transformation!

Hundreds packed the CTFM auditorium over the weekend to hear the Word of God, with people travelling all the way from Perth, Darwin, Sydney and other places around Australia to soak in the anointing of the Holy Spirit.

Ps Petrus from Indonesia preached the Word of God with power and authority as many received a mighty touch from Heaven.

At the Australia Day United Prayer Service, Church leaders from Baptist, Catholic, Anglican, Presbyterian, Salvation Army, Messianic Jewish, CRC and other Pentecostal denominations led in prayer for Government, Armed Forces & Emergency Services, Youth & Families, Business & Marketplace, Israel, Indigenous people etc.

The worship from the Indonesians & CTFM was absolutely awesome, as the Holy Spirit moved most powerfully, including when we sang ‘The Great South Land of the Holy Spirit’.

You may click the following link to listen to a very special worship item from Ps Daniel’s son & daughter.

America’s Most Urgent Need as the New Year Begins Is National Repentance

December 27, 2015

America’s most urgent need as the New Year begins is national repentance.

“I am struck by the high level of anxiety and worry on all fronts,” said Robert Jones, CEO of the Public Religion Research Institute, as PRRI released its American Values Survey November 17.

There are many obvious causes of national nervousness: terrorism, crime and domestic unrest, political weakness and uncertainty, economic woes, and moral collapse, to name a few.

Yet there is unidentifiable angst in the national soul. In our travels and interactions with people across the United States, we conclude this hidden distress is spiritual.

America needs revival, but first there must be national repentance.

Ancient Israel shows how it’s possible for a whole nation to repent. There are powerful examples showing how repentance brought return to God, and restoration of the nation to its values and the best of its history, as well as security and general well-being.

On Pakistan’s Death Row, Awaiting Her Final Hearing, Asia Bibi Sends a Message of Forgiveness for Her Persecutors

Jeremy Reynalds : Dec 29, 2015 : ASSIST News

“Christmas is a celebration of God’s mercy. I forgive my persecutors, those who have made false accusations against me, and I await their forgiveness.”

A story by Paolo Affatato for La Stampa, an Italian newspaper published in Turin, reported that this was the seventh Christmas she spent behind bars, in the women’s prison in Multan. That’s a town in the province of Punjab, where Asia awaits the outcome of a re-examination of her blasphemy conviction.

Pakistan’s Supreme Court, the third and final stage in the trial, has accepted Asia’s petition to appeal against her death sentence. The wait is now on for a hearing date to be set so that her final verdict can be issued.

For this 50-year-old mother of five, Christmas in the Year of Mercy, is a celebration of forgiveness.

It Began with a Tree

Monday, December 7, 2015

And out of the ground the LORD God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. —Genesis 2:9

The Christmas story begins with a tree, but not the kind of Christmas tree with brightly colored lights or ornaments. The Christmas story begins with a tree called the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, in the Garden of Eden.

God had given Adam and Eve only one restriction in that literal paradise: stay away from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. But before long, that’s just where we find them. Of course, we know the rest of the story. They listened to the serpent and ate the forbidden fruit. And once that happened, they lost their sweet fellowship with God.

A few verses later, we come to the first Christmas verse in the Bible, where God said to the serpent, “And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your seed and her Seed; He shall bruise your head, and you shall bruise His heel.” (more…)

Where is Israel on evangelical Christian voters’ list of priorities?

August 27, 2015 by Paul Stanley of JNS.org

Seventeen Republican presidential candidates are vying for the support of evangelical Christian voters from the swing states of Ohio and Florida, to the cornfields of Iowa, to the small towns of the Deep South. Within the varied spectrum of 2016 election issues such as the economy, immigration, and health care, do evangelicals highly prioritize candidates’ positions on Israel and the Middle East?

Major evangelical leaders in America are saying, “Yes.”

“Studies show us there are approximately 90 million Christians in America who consider their beliefs to be evangelical,” Tony Perkins—president of the Family Research Council (FRC), a Christian education and lobbying group—told JNS.org. “Of that number around 9-10 percent have what we call a ‘biblical worldview,’ in that they believe what the scriptures say pertaining to Israel. That’s a large number of voters who can definitely make a difference in a primary or general election.”
