America as the last man standing / ‘In a generation or two, the US will ask itself: who lost Europe?’

Geert Wilders is a Dutch Member of ParliamentHere is the speech of Geert Wilders, Chairman, Party for Freedom, the Netherlands, at the Four Seasons, New York, introducing an Alliance of Patriots and announcing the Facing Jihad Conference in Jerusalem.

Dear friends,

Thank you very much for inviting me.

I come to America with a mission.  All is not well in the old world.  There is a tremendous danger looming, and it is very difficult to be optimistic.  We might be in the final stages of the Islamization of Europe.  This not only is a clear and present danger to the future of Europe itself, it is a threat to America and the sheer survival of the West.  The United States as the last bastion of Western civilization, facing an Islamic Europe.

First I will describe the situation on the ground in Europe.  Then, I will say a few things about Islam.  To close I will tell you about a meeting in Jerusalem.

The Europe you know is changing. (more…)

Rev. Dr. Mark Durie’s speech in Washington D.C. on Hate Speech Laws, Islamic Blasphemy Scriptures and Freedom of Speech: The Case of Australia

The Hudson Institute’s Center for Religious Freedom held a discussion with The Rev. Dr. Mark Durie on September 15, 2009, 12:00 – 2:00 PM  (Hudson Institute, Washington , D.C. Headquarters)

In December 2004, pastors Daniel Scot and Daniel Nalliah of the evangelical group Catch the Fire Ministries (CTFM) were found guilty by an Australian judge of religious vilification for criticizing Islam in the course of a religious seminar and were ordered to publicly disavow their beliefs. Four and a half years after the lawsuit was brought, the pastors ultimately prevailed in the courts. Pastor Scot, who had grown up in Pakistan and fled the country after being accused there of the capital crime of blasphemy, remarked that religious vilification statutes like that under which he had been convicted in Australia were “blasphemy laws in disguise” and “sharia by stealth.” (more…)

Clergy Oppose Human Rights Charter!

A delegation of about 20 Australian church leaders met with federal Attorney General Robert McClelland on Wednesday to tell him they oppose a national Charter of Rights.

The delegation included representatives of Catholic, Presbyterian, Baptist and Pentecostal churches.

A report in The Australian said they warned “the Rudd government it could curtail religious freedoms and give judges the power to shape laws on issues such as abortion and gay marriage”.

The delegation was led by Catholic Cardinal George Pell.

Sydney’s Anglican Archbishop Peter Jensen told the paper he could not attend but “staunchly backed the delegation’s views”.

You Mustn’t Mention God… Council Bans Church From Putting Up Notices About Its Meetings

Roman Catholic Our Lady of Christians parish church in CamdenBy Daily Mail Reporter on 16th September 2009

A Christian campaign group has been banned from pinning up notices about its meetings in libraries or community centres.

The activists were told their posters advertising talks about climate change could not be shown in public because they mentioned Christianity and God.

Officials declared that the flyers for a talk on ‘climate change is a Christian issue’ and and another by a spokesman for the Christian Ecology Link were in conflict with town hall policy against the promotion of religious ideas. (more…)

Ethiopian Convert Remains Jailed For Handing Out Bibles

Wednesday, 16 September 2009 01:45 PM EDT Simba Tian / Compass Direct News News
  
A convert from Islam who has led a push for Muslim-Christian understanding in Ethiopia has been in jail for nearly four months since his arrest for “malicious” distribution of Bibles.

Christian sources in Ethiopia said that, contrary to Ethiopian law, 39-year-old Bashir Musa Ahmed has not been formally charged since his arrest on May 23 in Jijiga, capital of Somali Region Zone Five, a predominantly Muslim area in eastern Ethiopia. Zonal police arrested him after he was accused of providing Muslims with Somali-language Bibles bearing covers that resemble the Quran, the sources said.

An Ethiopian national, Ahmed is known as a bold preacher of Christianity and is credited with opening discussion of the two faiths between Christian and Muslim leaders. He is well-known in the area as a scholar of Islam, but his case has gone largely unreported in Ethiopia. (more…)

A Muslim prayer rally on Capitol Hill Friday drew between 3,000 and 5,000 participants, a figure well below the 50,000 organizers hoped to attract.

Among those gathered were several dozen protestors. Some stood at the rear of the crowd holding Bibles and praying. Others yelled “repent” from across the street, where they gathered with banners and crosses, the Washington Post reported.

Converts From Islam Jailed, Pursued In Somalia’s Breakaway Region

SomaliaThursday, 17 September 2009 Simba Tian / Compass Direct News

A convert from Islam in Somalia’s self-declared state of Somaliland has been jailed for distributing Christian materials, and another is on the run from both family members and police upset over his new faith.
 
Christian sources said Somaliland native Osman Nour Hassan was arrested on Aug. 3 for providing Christian literature in Pepsi village, on the outskirts of the breakaway region’s capital city, Hargeisa.

Promotion of any religion other than Islam in Somaliland is prohibited, contrary to international standards for religious freedom such as Article 18 of the U.N. Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Article 5(1-2) of the Somaliland constitution states that Islam is the state religion and prohibits the promotion of any other faith, according to the U.S. Department of State’s 2008 International Religious Freedom Report, and Article 313 outlines penalties for Muslims who change their religion.

Dying For Their Faith

Jonathan FalwellJonathan Falwell – WorldNetDaily- Posted: August 15, 2009

Most people wouldn’t think to look to Congress for spiritual insight, but recently one member of the U.S. House served to remind us of the price many Christians pay for their faith in Jesus Christ.

On July 30, Rep. Christopher Smith, R-N.J., spoke from the House floor to pay tribute to Christian martyr Watchman Nee of China. Rep. Smith noted that Nee is known around the world for his Christian witness and his books are still banned in China today. He was imprisoned for his faith in 1952 and died 20 years later in a labor camp.

In his speech, Rep. Smith stated, “… it is estimated that China has more than 100 million Christians, and millions of them consider themselves spiritual heirs of Watchman Nee. Millions more are rightly proud of the contribution Watchman Nee made to global Christianity – he was the first Chinese Christian to exercise an influence on Western Christians – and indeed of his contribution to world spiritual culture. It is sad that the works of Watchman Nee are officially banned in China – even as they are being discovered afresh by a new generation of Western Christians. It is my hope that Watchman Nee’s collected works can be freely published and distributed within China.”

Pastor Daniel Nalliah Wins Annual Top Gong At Ernie Awards

Pastor Daniel Nalliah speaking out for Pro-LifeDear family & friends in Christ,
 
It is reported that Martin Luther once said something along the lines of, ‘Do not worry about what either people or the media says, both good and bad publicity is always good for the cause.’ 
 
Over the last few days, you have possibly read newspaper articles on many major media outlets across Australia regarding Pas Daniel winning the annual top gong at Ernie Awards for sexist comment of the year. Of course it’s not a surprise that when you stand for Jesus, His kingdom, righteousness, justice and truth, you be increasingly attacked by Satan and his cohorts. However, how you handle it is what’s most important. 

When Pas Daniel heard about the award on Thursday 1st October, he cracked up laughing in the office and shouted, “Glory to God, more publicity for the Kingdom of God. When God starts to move, He is setting the stage for His prophetic word of Healing, Deliverance and Salvation to spread like wild fire through these same media outlets. God is up to something very big, so I am very, very excited. Bring it on mate!!!”
