Respect for the House of God

by Dr. Larry Ollison

I come from a Baptist background. As a child, I attended church with my parents every Wednesday and Sunday – morning and night. My parents made sure I participated in all the church functions, both spiritually and socially. I was in the church bell choir and sang with various musical quartets. As a child, attending church was not an option. My father never considered what I had done the day before or what I had to do the next day. How I felt was irrelevant. On Sunday morning we went to church.

Recently, I asked a husband and wife how their child was doing because I hadn’t seen him at church for a while. Their response startled me. They said, “He hasn’t been wanting to come lately.” I thought to myself, Who’s the parent in this household? Those same parents do not allow their child to decide whether or not he goes to school. They require school attendance, regardless. However, they let him choose whether or not he attends church. Without realizing it, those parents are instilling in that child the thought that education is important, but God isn’t.

Likewise, when children are required to show respect for teachers at school, but not required to show respect for elders at church, it also sends the wrong message. (more…)

Jesus’ name ruled ‘unconstitutional’ – Judge says prayers to Christ ‘do violence to America’s pluralistic, inclusive values

FAITH UNDER FIRE – World Net Daily – By Drew Zahn © 2011 

A board of county commissioners in North Carolina is asking the Supreme Court for help: Its members don’t believe they should have to forbid volunteers from mentioning the name of Jesus in prayers offered before their meetings.

But the American Civil Liberties Union and Americans United for Separation of Church and State are standing by their victory in a U.S. circuit court decision that states even “a solitary reference to Jesus Christ” in invocations before the Forsyth County Board of Commissioners’ meetings could do “violence to the pluralistic and inclusive values that are a defining feature of American public life.”

Furthermore, wrote Judge James Harvie Wilkinson III in the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals majority opinion, legislative invocations offered in Jesus’ name are inherently “sectarian” and thus should be censored lest they make some attendees feel “uncomfortable, unwelcome and unwilling to participate in … public affairs.”

But the board disagrees, and with the help of the Alliance Defense Fund is asking the Supreme Court to trump Wilkinson’s ruling. (more…)

Targetting Darwish

Posted by Daniel Greenfield on Oct 11th, 2011

The recent conviction of the Irvine 11 was a reminder of how far the campus arms of the Muslim Brotherhood will go to silence dissenting speakers. For all their protestations during the trial, they don’t believe in free speech, what they believe in is a monopoly on campus speech.

Nonie Darwish, an ex-Muslim and an informed critic of Islam, has had her talks assailed by Brotherhood campus affiliates numerous times. In 2009, at Seattle University members of the Muslim Students Association did their best to disrupt a speech by Darwish. That same year at Boston University, a fire was set in a bathroom right before her speech to scuttle her presentation. Now, as Darwish was set to speak at a Federalist Society event at the George Mason University School of Law, another Muslim Brotherhood organization, CAIR, deployed a slightly more subtle line of attack.

While Muslim Brotherhood front groups routinely bring extremist speakers to campus, such as Imam Abdel Malik Ali and Norman Finkelstein, CAIR wanted the Federalist Society to provide equal time to a Muslim speaker to “balance” her views. The MSA has never extended such an offer to Jewish student groups, yet the Brotherhood expected it to be granted to them.

In her speech at George Mason University, Darwish described arriving at her first job in America and seeing a sign that said it did not discriminate. “For the first time in my life, I felt free and equal to men under the law.”

Top Muslim Declares All Christians ‘Infidels

Posted by Raymond Ibrahim on Nov 1st, 2011

To what extent was Egypt’s Maspero massacre, wherein the military literally mowed down Christian Copts protesting the ongoing destruction of their churches, a product of anti-Christian sentiment?

A video of Egypt’s grand mufti,  Sheikh Ali Gomaa (or Gom’a), which began circulating weeks before the massacre, helps elucidate.  While holding that Muslims may coexist with Christians (who, as dhimmis, have rights), Gomaa categorized Christians as kuffar — “infidels” — a word that connotes “enemies,” “evil-doers,” and every bad thing to Muslim ears.

After quoting Quran 5:17, “Infidels are those who declare God is the Christ, [Jesus] son of Mary,” he expounded by saying any association between a human and God (in Arabic, shirk) is the greatest sin: “Whoever thinks the Christ is God, or the Son of God, not symbolically — for we are all sons of God — but attributively, has rejected the faith which God requires for salvation,” thereby becoming an infidel.

Gomaa then offered a hypothetical dialogue between Christians and Muslims to illustrate Islam’s proper position:

Christians: You have the wrong idea about us; we don’t worship the Christ.

Christians Take a Stand for Israel

Praying in Israel

Nicole Jansezian : Oct 6, 2011 : Travelujah.com

“The need has never been greater. The whole world is taking sides regarding Jerusalem.” –Robert Stearns

(Jerusalem, Israel)—At a time when Israel faces caustic criticism and a rising tide of anti-Semitism from nations around the world, Christians gathered in Jerusalem—and thousands more tuned into a live broadcast—to pray during the Global Day of Prayer for the Peace of Jerusalem on Sunday.

This year’s attendees included an array of Christians including Palestinians taking part in the Jerusalem event. Around the world, 300,000 churches had signed up to host their own gatherings to pray while the event was broadcast live on God TV, a Christian satellite channel.

“It is incredibly moving to see so many Christians who have come together for the purpose of praying for the peace of Jerusalem,” columnist Michael Freund, director of Shavei Israel, told Travelujah. “These people sincerely love Israel and they believe it is part of their obligation to bless Israel. We gladly welcome them.”

Christian leaders from Jerusalem and around the world called for prayer including Rebecca Brimmer, director of Bridges for Peace, who noted that the supplication was originating from and were prayed for the city where God chose to put His name. This was the first time that a Catholic priest joined the line up in the Global Day of Prayer for the Peace of Jerusalem. A pastor from Indonesia, the country with the largest Muslim population in the world, also prayed for Israel. (Photo: Travelujah)

After Two Years in a Coma, God Woke Him Up

Mark Ellis : Oct 5, 2011 : God Reports

“Before the coma I denied Jesus. I heard His voice in the coma. He taught me the real meaning of love. Now I’m His.” -Randall Hall

(Laguna Beach, CA)—Randall Hall was once a free-wheeling playboy who traveled the world, went through women like “potato chips,” and dashed around town in his Mercedes 500 SL convertible. Seven clothing boutiques from Laguna Beach to San Francisco provided access to beautiful women ready to lay claim to his indulgent lifestyle. Then he tried to move in on someone else’s girlfriend one night at a bar in this coastal enclave. The woman’s boyfriend savagely attacked Hall after he left the bar, which left him unconscious, lying face down in an alley with blood oozing from a cracked skull.

Randall in a comaTo save Hall’s life, doctors at Mission Hospital induced a coma and removed a portion of his skull to relieve pressure on his brain. After five surgeries and complications due to infection, doctors failed in their attempts to bring Hall out of the coma. He lapsed into a persistent vegetative state for two years. Over time, his body atrophied and curled into a fetal position. His doctor estimated that only 30 percent of his brain function remained. Hooked up to breathing and feeding machines, with no response to sounds or movement, doctors recommended they remove life support.

From the beginning, Hall was a rebel who dropped out of school and became a professional escort at 17-years-old. Drugs, alcohol, sex, and travel fueled his innate passions, but in his early 20s, he found Jesus Christ at Calvary Chapel in Costa Mesa. “It lasted for about a year,” he recalls.

Then he fell back into his old lifestyle, which kicked into high gear. He was a prodigal powered by jet fuel. Hall believes God used the assault and subsequent coma to rescue him from his downward spiral. “I was a bad person,” he admits. “I always took other men’s women,” he says, a practice that led to the violent assault.

“I was going to hell if I died, but God saved my life,” Hall believes.

Sydney Catches the Fire / More than 10,000 Muslim converts to Jesus want to get baptised in Indonesia / Live Webstreaming of AM & PM services this unday at CTFM

Dear family & friends in Christ,

1) Glory to God for another weekend full of Kingdom action under the anointing of the Holy Spirit, as the Lord moved mightily in Sydney where Pr Daniel ministered the prophetic Word at a Christmas evangelistic outreach organised by some Indonesian and Korean churches!

Some Indonesian & Korean churches combined together and did an amazing job with music, dance, etc.

The Christmas Love Street Parade was so great and very colourful that it attracted the attention of thousands of people in the CBD of Sydney.

At Park in Sydney, a few hundred people gathered to watch this great afternoon of celebrating the birth of Jesus!

As Pr Daniel spoke on ‘Remembering the Special Gift on Christmas Day” many people passing by watched and listened with great interest.

Additionally, over the weekend several people gave their lives to Jesus, including 2 Indonesian Buddhist men, a taxi driver and a young man from China that were all led to the Lord through Pr Daniel!

The 22 year old young man from China, a university student, came to the house where Pr Daniel was before ministering at the service, gave his life to Jesus, and was very keen to get baptised in water!

After speaking to the leaders of this fellowship, Pr Daniel baptised the young man in the bathtub in their house. As this young man came out of the water, he also received the baptism of the Holy Spirit and burst out praying in tongues! It was just absolutely amazing!

PROPHECY FOR AUSTRALIA BY CINDY JACOBS DECLARED AT H.I.M.’s RIM OF FIRE CONVERGENCE IN BRISBANE

September 23, 2011

“There is a coming shaking of the continent in order for a great awakening. The shakings thus far are beginning to awaken the church.

There is a coming shaking of the continent in order for a great awakening.  I saw in a sequence of visions, the whole of Australia as a giant, old-fashioned alarm clock and it was ringing to awaken the church to the hour of destiny.

The next vision in the series was of scales of justice.  There were tipping and in the distance I saw a huge storm gathering.

Stones had been dropped onto the scales on both sides.  I noted they had the words of past prayers from the generations.  The prayers have thus far “balanced” as it were the economy of the nation.

 The third and last in the series was of an hour glass.  The sands of time that had been allowed to stay the coming storms were slipping fast away while waiting for the church to be a loud voice of righteousness in the nation.

INTERPRETATION:

The shakings thus far are beginning to awaken the church.  There will be something of the nature of the American Tea Party that will arise in which the church will have a loud voice.

Waking up after the horse has bolted – Gay Marriage – Who is to be blamed??

Pastor Daniel NalliahDear family & friends in Christ,

I am sure you all are aware that the Federal Labour Party has taken a decision last weekend at their conference in Sydney to permit Gay Marriage as their party policy.

This is a very sad day for Australia.

As Andrew Bolt said in his column in the Herald Sun, ‘We are heading down a slippery slope.”  Yes, this agnostic journalist can see it, but how about the Church??

Someone came up to me at a social function last Saturday said, “What’s happening to our nation? The Labour Party is bad. The gay people are terrible because they got what they wanted.”  I remained silent for a while and then this person said, “What do you think?”

I responded, “If someone has a lion as a pet, lets it run loose around their garden, but they happen to leave the gate open and the lion gets out and attacks people, ‘Who do you think is responsible??’”

In the first place there should have been no lion at a home. However, the bigger problem and the one to be blamed is the owner who left the gate open because he was the gatekeeper.
