Melbourne’s Fed Square “Undeniable” Celebration

Dear friends and family in Christ,

We’re posting the following report from Kirsten Jack in regard to the great success of the recent ‘Undeniable’ event at Federation Square in Melbourne on Sun 15th April.

Truly, Jesus is Lord over Melbourne, all of Australia and the Nations of the World!

Dear Friend,

We’re so excited to report about the ‘Undeniable’ event!

Praise God it was perfect weather, for a 7:30pm start at Fed Square. Around 2-3000 people turned up, with over 100 atheists from the Global Atheist Convention. A number of churches cancelled their Sunday night services to be there, and heaps of other churches, denominations and ministries were represented.

Our message to the city of Melbourne was that “we know God is real because He has changed our lives”. We had around 80 helpers in white t-shirts with the words “ask me my story”, who talked and prayed with people in the crowd. There were healings, deliverance, repentance and HEAPS of conversations and prayer with atheists and others. (more…)

Why Christians Must Be Involved In Politics

by Rev. Johnny Lee Clary © www.johnnyleeclary.com

There is a huge movement underway, with books being written and endorsed by pastors of large churches telling people that Christians should never be involved in politics and that if they are then they are turning unbelievers away from Christ. These books are not worth buying. Their authors are worthless because they lack knowledge and wisdom when it comes to God’s word and therefore should not be telling Christians how to live their lives.

All political power has been delegated by God. As Apostle Paul says in Romans 13:1, in speaking on the subject of civil authority, “Every person should obey the government in power. No government would exist if it hadn’t been established by God. The governments which exist have been put in place by God.”

People accuse me all the time of being disobedient to God’s word for criticizing government officials, using Romans 13:1 to justify that accusation. I always point out to them that if that is true that I am disobedient, then so were the Apostles, John and Peter. The ruling authority commanded and ordered them not to preach Jesus and they replied they must obey God rather than men. Therefore, the word of God is plain; we do not have to obey government authority when it conflicts with God’s word.

Now the key here is that when you have a government that is hostile to or just plain old anti-Christian, you must get involved with politics in order to change the government to be favorable to God’s word and the way to do that is to put Christians in power! (more…)

Christians Call on UK Prime Minister to Support ’Not Ashamed of the Cross’ Campaign

Friday, April 6, 2012 By Peter Wooding – Europe Bureau Chief for ASSIST News Service

LONDON, ENGLAND (ANS) — CHRISTIANS across the UK were today (GOOD FRIDAY) launching a campaign to urge UK Prime Minister David Cameron to turn his strong “words of support” for Christianity and its role in public life, which he expressed this week at a private ‘Easter Reception’ at Downing Street for senior church leaders, into “solid action”.

In a letter to the UK Prime Minister, nurse Shirley Chaplin, one of the four Christians involved in the cases going to Europe, said:At the reception, the Prime Minister, who attends church with his wife, Samantha, and their children, rallied over 100 senior church representatives with a strong call for the Church to be more active in British Society, backed by the Government. He said that he supported the “fight back” by the Church against rising secularism and the right of Christians to wear crosses at work and be open about their faith.

According to a Christian Concern press release his comments come at a time when many Christians, including the former Archbishop of Canterbury, Lord Carey, fear that traditional values are being airbrushed from public life. A series of court cases have handed victories to secular campaigners, as Christians have been penalised for wearing crosses to work, for not wanting to work on a Sunday or even for just sharing their faith with colleagues or clients. In a recent case a Devon council was actually barred from saying prayers at the start of official meetings.

Mr Cameron told the attendees: “I think there’s something of a fight-back going on, and we should welcome that. The values of the Bible, the values of Christianity are the values that we need.” In a separately released Easter message, Mr Cameron said the festival was a time to “remember the life, sacrifice and living legacy of Christ”.

Britain’s Christians are being vilified, warns Lord Carey

By John Bingham, Religious Affairs Editor Telegraph.co.uk – 13 Apr 2012

 

Christians are being “persecuted” by courts and “driven underground” in the same way that homosexuals once were, a former Archbishop of Canterbury has warned.

Lord Carey says worshippers are being “vilified” by the state, treated as “bigots” and sacked simply for expressing their beliefs.

The attack is part of a direct appeal to the European Court of Human Rights before a landmark case on religious freedom.

In a written submission seen by The Daily Telegraph, the former leader of more than 70?million Anglicans warns that the outward expression of traditional conservative Christian values has effectively been “banned” in Britain under a new “secular conformity of belief and conduct”.

His comments represent one of the strongest attacks on the impartiality of Britain’s judiciary from a religious leader.

Photo of baby aborted in China at 9 months in forced abortion circulates on Internet, sparks outrage

by Kathleen Gilbert – Tue Apr 03, 2012 1

LINYI CITY, Shandong Province, China, April 3, 2012 (LifeSiteNews.com) – A chilling photograph circulating in China shows the body of a 9-months-gestation baby submerged in a bucket of water, apparently a victim of the country’s one-child policy.

Digital Journal reports that the photograph, in which the head and arm of a child can be seen underwater in a large red bucket on the floor, was posted to the Chinese web services company Baidu before it was circulated on Weibo, the country’s version of Twitter, last week.

The abortion appears to have taken place on March 26 after Chinese family planning police in the town of Moshan hunted down the family because the couple already had one child.

According to English reports regarding the original post, the pregnant mother was forcibly held down as she was given an injection to induce labor, after which the baby “even gave a cry when it came out,” but was left in a bucket to drown.

Glorious Resurrection weekend / RUA Party ready for action in Tasmania

Tasmanian RUA State TeamParticipants in the play enjoying fellowshipDear family & friends in Christ,

We thank and praise God for the Easter Resurrection weekend, where we all came together to worship and thank Him for His great gift and sacrifice to mankind, Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior! It was very encouraging to see the TV News coverage of this weekend, and to hear news reporters say that more people were at church this year than in past years. This is great news, because more Aussies are beginning to feel the need for God in their lives.

Many gathered over the weekend at the CTFM base in Melbourne for the Good Friday service, then on Saturday for a Passover meal and on Sunday for the Resurrection service. All were remembering what happened 2000 years ago and giving glory to God, Hallelujah!

On Saturday the Passover meal and drama was organised and directed by sister Jill Curry and a team from CTFM. This was a remarkable night, as people were taken back to the time of Jesus and the Jewish culture. It was also so good to learn the significance of the Passover meal for today. All tickets were sold out, as many with a heart and love for Israel gathered to celebrate this event. The drama was well presented, giving great insight into the journey the people of Israel took from bondage to the promised land, plus the play of Hinds Feet on High Places beautifully portrayed our journey as Christians from fear to maturity and victory in Christ.

On Resurrection Sunday Pr Daniel spoke on the ’15 reasons to celebrate Resurrection weekend’. People were mightily challenged and blessed through the message. You can buy the CD or DVD by calling CTFM office on Mondays or Thursdays or emailing Angelene@reformationharvestfire.com. (more…)

Marriage is best for raising children, Government says

By James Kirkup, Deputy Political Editor – 12 Mar 2012

It is better for children to be raised by two parents than one, and better still when those parents are married, the Government will declare today.

Mr Duncan Smith said he was not ‘lecturing’ parents on how to live, merely setting out the facts on the advantages of marriage and commitment.

Iain Duncan Smith will make the Coalition’s most explicit official statement in favour of parents marrying and staying together.

He will say that children from such homes are most likely to end up with a good education and a job.

The Work and Pensions Secretary will make the declaration as he announces an Early Intervention Foundation to raise millions of pounds from private investors to help disadvantaged children. (more…)

More than 200 gather to celebrate the 25th wedding anniversary of Pr Daniel and wife Maryse / Live webcast – Easter Resurrection Sunday

Dear family & friends in Christ,

We thank and praise God for a wonderful time of celebration and fellowship at the 25th wedding anniversary thanksgiving service of Pr Daniel & his wife Maryse, which was held in Melbourne on 30th March 2012.

It was so nice to see family, friends, church members & many pastors, from so many different ethnic backgrounds, come together as one to celebrate this special  occasion of their loving commitment toward the Lord and one another. Some traveled from overseas and interstate to be a part of the function.

At the thanksgiving service they renewed their marriage vows as Pr Daniel put a very special eternity ring on his wife Maryse. Their senior pastors originally from Sri Lanka, now living in Australia (Townsville), Pr Camilus and his wife Karen, traveled from interstate especially for the anniversary, to conduct the service of thanksgiving and renewing of vows.

 The service started with prayer by Pr Gary, then a few beautiful songs of worship led by Nigel & Shannen (Pr Daniel & Maryse’s, Son & Daughter). They also sang aPs Daniel congratulates his wife Maryse few very special songs to Dad & Mum and then spoke of the joy, love & happiness that the Nalliah family has experienced through Jesus their Lord and Saviour, through all the challenges they have faced in their journey of serving the Lord together. Many at the party were in tears.

Their youngest daughter Brianna, who turns 5 in June, was very busy finishing all the chocolates which were on the table.

Then Pr Cami led the service and renewing of vows. He also spoke of the many years he had known the Nalliah family and that how honoured he was to be at their 25th wedding anniversary.

Hitler’s Best Kept Secret?

As I wept my way through the Holocaust doing research for a new book called Hitler, God and the Bible, I thought that I would uncover why Adolf Hitler so hated the Jews. But all I found were a number of theories; no one really knowing for sure as to why his hatred was so venomous. Some surmise that he was insanely jealous of the Jews because many were able to stay financially secure during the 1929 depression. Others think that he was bitter because he contracted syphilis from a Jewish prostitute. In Mein Kampf he called it a “Jewish disease,” and this lead to speculation by some that he may have contracted the disease himself.

Still other authorities believe that his hatred grew out of a sense of rejection, after he submitted his paintings to the Vienna Academy of Fine Art. Hitler claimed that the professors that rejected him, were Jewish. Others believe another theory–that “The core of his hatred lies at the defeat of Germany in WWI.”

Perhaps it was a combination of each one that fostered the fire of hatred, that consumed the lives of six million Jews. However, I believe that there was another factor that clearly fueled the fire, and one that is often overlooked.

Adolf Hitler had a huge reason to kill Jews, because they helped him to finance his war-machine. Every time he seized the assets of wealthy Jewish families, it meant money in his bank. Big money. Cash, adding up to many billions of dollars came directly from their murder. According to those who have access to the details, he financed a massive 30 per cent of the German war effort by killing Jewish families and stealing their wealth. (more…)

Mighty Presence of God, Salvation and a BIG THANK YOU from Pr Daniel / CTFM Live Webcast Sun 1st April

Dear family and friends in Christ,

We thank and praise God for His continued manifest presence as His people unite together to glorify Him as King of kings and LORD of lords!

This is so exciting, because when people experience the manifest presence of God, they cannot deny that Jesus is real and that He is alive!

This last week has been great, as we have been receiving some very exciting testimonies of the wonderful works of the Lord!

1) Pr Daniel ministered over the weekend in Bendigo as more people were mightily touched by the Lord through the Word of God and the powerful testimonies of the many victories in the name of Jesus. On Sunday morning after the service was over, a middle aged man came up to Pr Daniel and shook his hand.  Then when asked whether he was from that church, he said to him, “Pastor, I don’t go to church. I am the owner of the local Pizza outlet. I just came because I heard that you are heading up the Rise Up Australia Party to Keep Australia Australian. I am 100% behind you. How can I help? I really like what your party stands for. I will become a member and distribute your brochures at my outlet.”

This man was so excited that he just kept talking about how he wants to help. Seeing that the man was so touched, Pr Daniel asked him whether he could pray for him and he responded, “Yes, please.” Pr Daniel first prayed for him and then was able to lead him to the Lord. The man accepted Jesus as His Lord and Saviour! What a mighty God we serve! (more…)
