He was welcomed on Thursday by Korean Christian Federation leaders, Rev. Kang Yong-sop and Ri Jong-ro, at a special dinner in honor of his visit.

My stand On Catholicism – Pastor Danny Nalliah

Dear family in Christ,

Pastor Danny NalliahRecently I have been asked by a number of believers where I stand in relation to the Roman Catholic Church, the Pope and Roman Catholic doctrine because of entries on the Catch the Fire website.

There are many Born Again believers in the Roman Catholic Church who are saved and going to Heaven, however, what I must clearly say is that they are NOT saved by following the doctrine, traditions and sacraments of Catholicism. Those who are saved, are saved by the grace of God through faith in the work of Jesus Christ on the cross of Calvary, nothing more and nothing less.

During World Youth Week, amongst the massive crowd I saw many, many Born Again God loving young people rejoicing together and also many others who were so hungry for more than this world can offer and seeking something. This gives me great hope that our prayers for revival are being answered, may these hungry young people find salvation in Jesus. (more…)

By Aimee Herd - CWN, CBN News

Children Praying In MyanmarEven Buddhists are beginning to open their hearts to the Gospel.

(Myanmar)—As the government and military in Myanmar (also known as Burma) is finally beginning to allow other countries, such as the United States, to provide relief and aid to the country’s cyclone victims, God has already been at work.

A CBN video shows orphans praying and praising God for protecting them during Cyclone Nargis’ devastation. They are just one of many stories of survival coming from the storm-ravaged area.

One woman shares how the Lord kept her home from being destroyed by a neighboring church, which had begun swaying in the overpowering winds at midnight. “I prayed to God to send His angels to protect us,” she said. “He gave me the verse in Nahum 1:7-‘The Lord is good, a refuge in times of trouble for those who trust in Him.’ I believe the angels stretched their big wings to keep the big church from falling in the direction of our house.” (more…)

The Biblical days recorded in the book of the Acts of the Apostles are being reflected in the here and now! Yes… the supernatural acts of the Holy Spirit are happening right now in the 21st century in our backyard in Melbourne! We read in the Bible how the apostles, disciples, and simple believers in Jesus, healed, delivered and set people free by the power of God under the anointing of the Holy Spirit!

Colombian Guerilla Melts Beneath Love Of Jesus; Becomes Pastor

By Teresa Neuman

Colombian Guerilla“The next several nights in dreams he saw a group of Christians carrying their Bibles into a church. He thought to himself, ‘I would gladly lay down my arms for one of those Bibles.'”

(Colombia, South America)—Wayne and Phyllys Wozniak are missionaries to Colombia, South America. They have shared with Faith News Network the testimony of a pastor known only by the name of “Wilson.”

According to the testimony, due in large part to the fact that Wilson’s father was a Colombian guerrilla, by the time Wilson was 10-years-old, he was also a guerrilla. He lived for violence, crime and murder. (more…)

Pope Calls For Christian Values In The Public Square

World Youth Day in Sydney has seen an unprecedented public proclamation of the Gospel of Christ through the Australian media.

Far from just a call to private faith behind the four walls of a church, this event has like no other, challenged, questioned and confronted secular society with the social claims of the Christian Gospel.

Images of thousands of happy young Christians celebrating against the backdrop of Sydney’s spectacular harbour have been beamed in to living rooms throughout Australia and overseas.

Not only has the Pope exhorted people to turn to Christ for their own individual salvation, but his messages have questioned modern society’s greed, lack of concern for the poor and moral breakdown. (more…)

An Opportunity To Help Defend Marriage

Defend Marriage 2008Dear Pastor,

As I’m sure you are aware, marriage is under attack today as never before. Yet marriage is vitally important for healthy families and a stable society. Australians have a brief but important opportunity this week to defend marriage – can you help?

The saying “as goes the family, so goes the nation” reminds us that nothing is more fundamental to a stable society than healthy marriages. Successful societies around the world and throughout the ages have esteemed marriage. As Hebrews 13:4 says: “Marriage should be honoured by all, and the marriage bed kept pure, for God will judge the adulterer and all the sexually immoral.” (more…)
