Kenya Stands Firm for Morality Despite President Obama’s Urging for “Gay Rights”

Isaiah Narciso : Jul 28, 2015 : Gospel Herald

“Unfortunately, we are living in a world where these things have now become quite acceptable but for the fact that they are acceptable doesn’t mean that they are right.” -Cardinal John Onaiyekan, the Archbishop of Abuja Diocese in Nigeria.

(Kenya)—In his historic visit to East Africa over the weekend, President Barack Obama went to his father’s ancestral homeland and made the case for gay rights there. However, some pastors in socially conservative Kenya, along with the country’s president, have voiced their objection to Obama’s remarks. (Photo: Reuters/Jonathan Ernst)

U.S. President Barack Obama delivered remarks at an indoor stadium in Nairobi. Obama told Kenya on Saturday the United States was ready to work more closely in the battle against Somalia’s Islamist group al Shabaab, but chided his host on gay rights and said no African state should discriminate over sexuality.

According to Kristen Holmes and Eugene Scott of CNN, the president met with Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta. One of the topics focused on Kenya’s gay rights record.

“When you start treating people differently not because of any harm they are doing to anybody, but because they are different, that’s the path whereby freedoms begin to erode,” Obama said. “And bad things happen.”

Since Mildura is one of several locations in Australia where Muslims refugees are resettled in large numbers, could this become another ghetto or sharia zone”?

Salman Rushdie: world learned “wrong lessons” from his Iran fatwa

July 23, 2015 – By Robert Spencer

“The writer said that the controversy that surrounded the PEN prize to Charlie Hebdo this year convinced him that, if the attacks against ‘The Satanic Verses’ had occurred today, ‘these people would not come to my defence and would use the same arguments against me by accusing me of insulting an ethnic and cultural minority.’”

Indeed so. That was what happened after our free speech event in Garland, Texas: the international media, including many “conservatives” such as Bill O’Reilly and Laura Ingraham, excoriated Pamela Geller and declared that she should have shown more “respect” — which really meant that she should have submitted in fear, as they were doing.

The freedom of speech is seriously imperiled, and most Americans have bought into the idea that “hate speech,” which they assume to be an entity that can be objectively established, does not deserve protection. They have no idea that they’re thereby paving the way for authoritarianism and totalitarianism.

“Salman Rushdie says the world learned the ‘wrong lessons’ from his Iran fatwa ordeal,” Agence France-Presse, July 22, 2015: More than a quarter century after being slapped with a fatwa fromIran [sic] calling for his murder over his book “The Satanic Verses”, Salman Rushdie says the world has learned the “wrong lessons” about freedom of expression.

My response to Leadership (office of PM) change in Australia – Ps Daniel / Live webcast Sun 20th Sept about honouring God & leadership

Dear family and friends in Christ,

On Monday night when the news broke that Tony Abbott was no longer the PM and that Malcolm Turnbull has taken over the top job of PM, I was very sad and disappointed.

The Liberal party had just done what Labor did to Kevin Rudd. My night was quite messed up, as I am sure many of you would have felt the same.

6 months after Mr Abbott took up the office of PM, I told my team, “the greatest threat to PM Abbott was not Labor but Malcolm from inside the Liberal Party”, and at this point I did ask my team to pray about this.

Well, in the most shocking way it happened overnight.

I woke up very early the next morning (Tuesday Sep 15th  2015) and started praying, asking the Lord for wisdom. To my surprise, I started getting the prompting by the Holy Spirit, “Bless the office of PM and do not curse it,” as I was very upset in my heart.

The following is what I believe the Lord would want the Church to do; to start praying for PM Malcolm Turnbull (also his family) and bless the office he is holding as PM of Australia.

I have also put this on video on YouTube at https://youtu.be/EyrrniooKyY

In God’s heavenly courtroom, Jesus is our advocate, but remember the devil is constantly accusing us in the sight of God. Every word which comes out of our mouths is taken by the devil or Jesus, so we must speak blessings and let the Lord be the judge.

RUAP National President calls on churches & Aussie homes to open up to help refugees (mainly Christian minorities from Syria & Iraq)

FOR URGENT RELEASE – MONDAY 14th SEPTEMBER 2015

Last week, the National President of Rise Up Australia Party sent out an email to his church and political party network asking for churches and Aussie homes to open up and accommodate refugees from Iraq & Syria; under PM Tony Abbott’s plan of taking 12,000 refugees from “persecuted minorities”.

From his office today, Mr Nalliah stated, ”I am so humbled and overwhelmed at the feedback I have received in just the last 2-3 days from churches & simple Aussie families wanting to house these refugees. This shows the real heart of our nation’s people. Thank you so very much for your kindness and willing heart of help.”

Following is a video link to a message on this issue from RUAP President Mr Nalliah.

https://youtu.be/GfzN8lWyNzg

This morning we spoke with the offices of Government Ministers Peter Dutton (Immigration Minister) & Scott Morrison (Minister for Resettlement, etc.) and they were very interested in our plan to house these refugees. They were also very appreciative of the initiative taken.

We hope the media will run this article and challenge more churches and people to come forward to help these severely persecuted minorities (Christian communities) wanting to flee Syria & Iraq from the wrath of ISIS.

Arctic ice back to chill out the ‘warmists’

Christopher Booker – ©The Daily Telegraph | 27 July, 2015

Two events last week brought yet further twists to one of the longest-running controversies of our modern world.

One was the revelation by the European Space Agency that in 2013 and last year, after years when the volume of Arctic ice had been diminishing, it increased again by as much as 33%.

The other was that Canadian scientists studying the effect of climate change on Arctic ice from an icebreaker had to suspend their research when their vessel was called to the aid of other ships trapped in the thickest summer ice seen in Hudson Bay for 20 years.

For more than a decade now the belief that, thanks to global warming, Arctic ice was vanishing has been for the “warmists” the ultimate poster child for their cause, along with those “vanishing” polar bears. (more…)

2) Top URGENT. Please call the Fiona Stanley Hospital (08 6152 4013) and the Perth Children’s Hospital (1800 303 303) to state your protest against the ‘Muslim only prayer room’.

Following are some questions you can ask them.

Why a Muslim only prayer room, while all the others have to use the interfaith prayer room? Where did you get the funding from?

Isn’t this discrimination against all other faiths? Who gave the approval for this prayer room? What is their response to your complaint?

Please be very nice to them, but also be very firm. Don’t let them get away giving you any excuses. This is very important.

3) We praise and thank God for His wonderful hand at work over the last weekend in Perth (WA), as Ps Daniel and his team from Melbourne spoke and ministered at 5 meetings on Friday, Saturday & Sunday.

Many people attended the meetings and were greatly blessed.

On Friday night the RUAP meeting was addressed by National President Daniel Nalliah and WA State President Anthony Hardwick.

Several unchurched people came to the meeting and stated, “we never knew that there are such passionate Christians who love Australia and have the guts to stand up for what they believe in.”

In the plane, at the airport, in the shopping centres, people were so very open to hear the message and some commented, “if we don’t stand up now, it will be too late”.

Take Christian & Yazidi refugees says RUAP Dr Daniel Nalliah

FOR URGENT RELEASE – WEDNESDAY 9th SEPTEMBER 2015

Rise Up Australia Party would formally welcome Syrian, Iraqi and Yazidi refugees who are fair dinkum.

This goes without saying.

You may click the following link to listen to RUAP National President Daniel Nalliah speaking out on the Refugee Crisis.

https://youtu.be/tmmOrbqd90I

From his Melbourne office this morning, Party President Daniel Nalliah stated: “I am proud of Australia’s long term policy of acceptance of the tired and broken and starving refugee. However, I am also not a mug. Contrary to the overwhelming media bias, I believe the most persecuted people, and children, in the entire Middle East are not the Red Cross mocking, agents of ‘Allah Akbar’ breaking Europe’s borders, one after another, but the Christian and Yazidi.

We should first and foremost, as has been suggested by Julie Bishop, Cory Bernardi and the P.M. himself, be giving favour to these aforementioned groups as they have zero Homeland status and on arriving in Australia would have near zero risk of becoming ‘radicalised’.”

Franklin Graham Warns ‘Arrogantly Disregarding God’s Authority Has Serious Consequences’ in Response to SCOTUS Ruling on Same-Sex Marriage

By Leah Marieann Klett – Jul 01, 2015

Leading Evangelist Franklin Graham has warned the United States that “arrogantly disregarding God’s authority always has serious consequences” following last Friday’s U.S. Supreme Court ruling, which legalized same-sex marriage throughout the United States.

Graham, the president of both the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association and Samaritan’s Purse, shared his prayerful thoughts several days after the high court ruled 5-4 in favor of legalizing the practice across all 50 states.

“‘Pride goeth before a fall.’ Supreme Court Justice Scalia used Proverbs 16:18 in his comments regarding the court’s disappointing and dangerous ruling about same-sex marriage. He rightly called the decision ‘a threat to the American democracy.’ This is so true. Arrogantly disregarding God’s authority always has serious consequences. Our nation will not like what’s at the end of this rainbow,” Graham wrote in a Facebook post.

RUAP MEDIA RELEASE: PUBLIC RALLY TO PROTEST “MOSLEM ONLY” PRAYER ROOM IN WEST AUSTRALIAN HOSPITALS

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE –  TUESDAY 1st SEPTEMBER 2015

From the W.A today, “A group of West Australian MPs has called for Christian symbols to be permitted in prayer rooms in Perth’s two new hospitals alongside prayer rooms built to cater for the Muslim faith.

‘After all, our tradition here is a Christian country and, while not everyone shares that faith, tradition is we are Judeo-Christian sort of country. Let’s acknowledge that’.”

Comments by Dissenting Supreme Court Justices: The Chilling Consequences of Gay Marriage Ruling

Ben Johnson : Jun 29, 2015 : LifeSiteNews

(Washington, DC)—The Supreme Court’s conservative justices lambasted last week’s majority opinion that the U.S. Constitution grants an inalienable right to same-sex “marriage,” emphasizing the threat the opinion poses to religious liberty, the democratic process, and the institution of marriage even as it is redefined.

In a series of scathing dissents, each of the High Court’s four conservative justices took apart Justice Anthony Kennedy’s Obergefell v. Hodges decision piece-by-piece.

Chief Justice Roberts, joined by Justices Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas, wrote that “the majority fails to provide even a single sentence explaining” how the 14th Amendment applies to redefining marriage.

“The right it announces has no basis in the Constitution or this Court’s precedent,” he wrote. “There is, after all, no ‘Companionship and Understanding’ or ‘Nobility and Dignity’ Clause in the Constitution.”

Great meetings in Darwin

Dear family & friends in Christ,

Ps Daniel spoke and ministered with his team this past weekend from Friday to Monday at several meetings in Darwin at a public hall, hotel, church and parliament.

Many who came for the meetings were greatly impacted to hear his message on “Why Christians should stand up for government.”

On Sunday at church the mighty presence of the Holy Ghost swept through the place as Ps Daniel shared the Word of God and led in worship and intercession.

Many people from other churches came to the meetings and were greatly blessed. Some stated, “We have never experienced anything like this ever before in Darwin.” Oh glory to God it was a great weekend!

People came to the altar weeping, asking more of God. Ps Merv the Senior Minister of the church, and a very well respected man of God stated, “Truly, God has sent this man (Ps Daniel) into Australia for an hour such as this to stand in the gap for our nation.”

Several people joined RUA Party understanding the importance of Christians having a voice in parliament.

Ps Daniel stated, “I thank and praise God for giving me this wonderful opportunity to serve Him in my nation Australia. I know Australia will turn back to Jesus. I also thank God for giving us the opportunity to go right inside parliament and intercede for our nation. It was just wonderful”.

Thank you Jan and all the team (our coordinator for NT) for doing a great job in standing in the gap for NT.”

‘Religion of peace’ is not a harmless platitude

17 January 2015 – Douglas Murray– The Spectator

The West’s movement towards the truth is remarkably slow. We drag ourselves towards it painfully, inch by inch, after each bloody Islamist assault.

In France, Britain, Germany, America and nearly every other country in the world it remains government policy to say that any and all attacks carried out in the name of Mohammed have ‘nothing to do with Islam’. It was said by George W. Bush after 9/11, Tony Blair after 7/7 and Tony Abbott after the Sydney attack last month. It is what David Cameron said after two British extremists cut off the head of Drummer Lee Rigby in London, when ‘Jihadi John’ cut off the head of aid worker Alan Henning in the ‘Islamic State’ and when Islamic extremists attacked a Kenyan mall, separated the Muslims from the Christians and shot the latter in the head. And, of course, it is what President François Hollande said after the massacre of journalists and Jews in Paris last week.

All these leaders are wrong. In private, they and their senior advisers often concede that they are telling a lie. The most sympathetic explanation is that they are telling a ‘noble lie’, provoked by a fear that we — the general public — are a lynch mob in waiting. ‘Noble’ or not, this lie is a mistake. First, because the general public do not rely on politicians for their information and can perfectly well read articles and books about Islam for themselves. Secondly, because the lie helps no one understand the threat we face. Thirdly, because it takes any heat off Muslims to deal with the bad traditions in their own religion. And fourthly, because unless mainstream politicians address these matters then one day perhaps the public will overtake their politicians to a truly alarming extent.
