Pastor Daniel Ministering at the Altar

Dear family & friends in Christ,Receiving Healing For Knee Problem

What a mighty God we serve! We thank and praise God for His increasing manifest presence in our nation of Australia, this Great South Land of the Holy Spirit!

Over the weekend gone by Pas Daniel (Danny) ministered in Toowoomba, QLD. The Holy Spirit fire fell mightily at every meeting with many people empowered and radically transformed for the glory of the King of kings and the Lord of lords! Hundreds of Christians hungry for the presence of God attended the revival meetings as God-seeking worshippers packed the church hall on Sunday morning.

Many at ‘On The Edge Church’ in Toowoomba were greatly blessed as the Lord healed many from their physical, emotional, and spiritual problems. Pas Daniel stated, “This church has a great Pastor who is absolutely hungry for more of the power and presence of God in our nation. Pas David is a man who is willing to do anything to see a mighty move of God in Australia. I rejoice when I see men of God rise up like this to catch the fire of the Holy Spirit.  We desperately need 300 men & women of God like this man in the body of Christ, another Gideon’s army in the Spirit, who will rise up and take Australia for Jesus!” (more…)

The Dangers Of Dual Covenant Theology

Jonathan BernisFriday, 07 August 2009 – by Jonathan Bernis

Jewish leaders finally are realizing that evangelical Christians are Israel’s best friends. As a Jewish believer, I rejoice over this growing love and support for the country and the people. I am grateful for the rallies, financial support and efforts to lobby our government not to force Israel to trade land for peace.

Having said that, I have serious concern for the growing acceptance of “dual covenant theology.” It promotes the idea that Jewish people have a separate path to salvation through the Abrahamic or Mosaic covenants. In other words, Jews don’t need Jesus for personal salvation.

Proponents of this theology teach that Judaism and Christianity are valid yet distinct religions, each equally worthy of the other’s respect. They say Christians should not challenge the traditional Jewish thought that Jesus was not the Messiah.

Iran Tightens Grip On Christians As Unrest Roils

Iran\'s Persecution of ChristiansCharisma News Online – Wednesday, 12 August 2009 – Compass Direct News News – Featured News

Amid a violent crackdown on protestors and a purge of opponents within the Iranian government, more than 30 Christians were arrested in the last two weeks near Tehran and in the northern city of Rasht.

Two waves of arrests near Tehran happened within days of each other, and while most of those detained—all converts from Islam—were held just a day for questioning, a total of eight Christians still remain in prison.

On July 31 police raided a special Christian meeting 15 miles north of Tehran in the village of Amameh in the area of Fashan. A Compass source said about 24 Christians, all converts from Islam, had gathered in a private home. In the afternoon police squads in both plain clothes and uniform raided and arrested everyone present. (more…)

Mr. Obama, What About The Christians Of The Middle East?

Paul BatouAINA (Assyrian International News Agency)  | August 8, 2009 | Paul Batou

AINA) — The oppression of the Iraqi Christians started when Arabs occupied the land in the seventh century. Their method of wiping out Christianity from the region involved the implementation of a simple rule: either convert and follow the Islamic banner or pay heavy taxes (which many Christians could not afford) or face war.

Looking at more modern history, the first genocide of the 20th century began on April 24, 1915. By 1918, 2.65 million Christians including 750,000 Assyrians, 1.5 million Armenians, and 400,000 Greeks were killed by the Ottoman Empire and the Kurds. The Assyrians called this genocide “seyfo” which means sword. In 1933, the massacre of Simmele, in Northern Iraq, resulted in the death of 3000 Christians at the hands of the Iraqi Army. This was the first atrocity committed by the new Iraqi state under after gaining independence from the British in 1932. My village Tin, in Northern Iraq, shared a similar fate in 1961.

The American occupation in Iraq did not end the struggles of the native Christians. Under the watch of our Democratic government and the newly established Iraqi government, Christians continue to face persecution. Here is a list of some of the acts of violence committed as reported by the Assyrian International News Agency:

Christians Rally To Defend Prayers In Jesus’ Name

Former Military ChaplainCharisma News Online – Wednesday, 05 August 2009 – Adrienne S. Gaines News – Featured News

A former military chaplain who battled the U.S. Navy over the right to pray in Jesus’ name is waging a similar fight in Lodi, Calif., where the City Council in May temporarily banned sectarian prayers before meetings.

Chaplain Gordon James Klingenschmitt expects several hundred people-some from out of state-to join him tonight at 6 p.m. for a “Stand Up for Jesus” prayer rally protesting a city policy requiring all prayers to be “non-sectarian and non-denominational.”

“Jesus is not an illegal word, the Bible is not a banned book, and evangelistic speech is not a crime,” Klingenschmitt wrote in an online petition that collected more than 5,000 signatures, half of them from Californians. The charismatic chaplain plans to present the petition at tonight’s rally.

When The Godly Govern

By Dave Welch
Posted on World Net Daily on August 18, 2009

I believe it necessary to pick up from last week’s column “Who’s your king?” with the recognition that while using the choice of Saul as Israel’s first king as an illustration, it appeared I was making the case that he was solely the people’s choice, not God’s. Several e-mails from studious readers properly took me to task, so let me assert that Scripture is clear. God guided Samuel, and in His sovereign plan directed him to anoint Saul (1 Samuel 9).

What cannot be overlooked is that the entire process was a result of the people rejecting the authority of God over the nation and God granting them their first wish.

Harry Potter Star Blasts Parents Who Oppose Gay Sex Ed In Schools

Daniel Radcliffe - Harry PotterBy John-Henry Westen – LONDON, August 13, 2009 (LifeSiteNews.com)

20-year-old Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe has, in an interview with a homosexual magazine, expressed anger and intolerance for parents who oppose education about homosexual sex in the classroom.  “Then there’s all this stuff at the moment, which is hateful, about people being up in arms about the idea of gay sex education in schools.  Hello!?!  Actually for the one or two gay kids in the class, it’s f***ing vital!  It really makes me angry,” he said in an interview with Attitude.

The magazine quotes Radcliffe continuing his tirade against pro-family parents saying: “I just loathe homophobia. It’s just disgusting and animal and stupid and it’s just thick people who can’t get their heads around it and are just scared.”

He concluded the point assuring his interviewer, “I’m not just saying that because I’m being interviewed for Attitude. I’d be using a lot stronger language if this wasn’t on tape.”

TOP URGENT From Ps Danny – Please Take Time To Read/ Fresh Blood Found From Sacrifice

Blood found on concrete slab on Mount Ainsley in CanberraDear family & friends in Christ,Praying and Worshipping the Lord
 
A few weeks ago a Pastor friend of mine who works as a chaplain for a state school in Victoria took his Year 6 class on an excursion to Canberra. There they went up to Mount Ainsley which overlooks the Federal Parliament building. Right on top of this mountain is some sort of a communication tower.
 
One of the students, who was not a Christian, came up to my Pastor friend and said, “there is blood all over the concrete slab under the tower”. This got the attention of many students and when they looked further, it was indeed fresh blood splattered all over the slab. The students were absolutely shocked as was my friend, who explained that it was some sort of sacrifice.
 
My friend who was very disturbed by what he had seen started praying but did not let the students know.  As they left for another place, my friend found out that the tour guide was a born-again Christian and he told her what they had seen on the mountain. She responded, “oh, we know about it as the witchcraft covens offer sacrifices all the time on that mountain”. My friend could not believe what he was hearing and he brought this to my attention as soon as he returned from Canberra.

It Wouldn’t Happen To The Koran: Pope Attacks Glasgow Art Gallery’s Invitation To vandalise A Bible

Pope Benedict XVIBy Graham Grant

Pope Benedict XVI believes the stunt would not have been contemplated with a copy of the Koran

The Pope has condemned a ‘ disgusting’ taxpayer-funded exhibition in which visitors are urged to deface the Bible.

Visitors were offered pens by gallery bosses so they could scrawl comments on the text – leading to a host of puerile and obscene remarks.

Pope Benedict XVI believes the stunt would not have been contemplated with a copy of the Koran. 

His anger over the show, organised by council-funded arts body Culture
and Sport Glasgow, was expressed by a senior Vatican priest. (more…)

60 Christian Houses In Pakistan Reduced To Ashes By Chemical Bombs Over Blasphemy Accusation

Pakistan Federal Minister for Minorities condemns violence, while some Christian villagers are missing after July 30 attack

By Dan Wooding and Sheraz Khurram Khan

Scene of the July 30 destructionTOBA TEK SINGH, GOJRA, PAKISTAN (ANS) — In another shocking display of violence in Pakistan, Islamists set ablaze some 60 Christian houses in Korian village in Toba Tek Singh district on Thursday, July 30, 2009, at 9:00 pm Pakistan time after a blasphemy accusation was leveled against a young Christian boy, Imran Masih, and his father Talib Masih.

Eye-witnesses told ANS they could still see plumes of smoke rising from some houses of the village today (Friday, July 31.)

The trouble began for the Christian residents of Korian when Talib, a Christian vendor ignorantly brought home a piece of paper that had Quranic verses written on it, along with some other rough papers.

Talib’s children innocently ripped apart the paper not understanding its contents.

When some local Muslims found the torn pieces of paper, the anti-Christian hostility spread like a wildfire in the village. (more…)
