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.

How Turkey Fights the Islamic State

by Burak Bekdil – July 27, 2015

  • “Turkey says it fights IS. Maybe it does. But just randomly and reluctantly.” — EU ambassador, Ankara.
  • Meanwhile, Turkey keeps on telling the world how it fights the Islamic State terrorists in Syria. Even more ridiculous than this claim is that some people apparently buy the Turkish fairy tales. In April, US Secretary of State John Kerry underlined that Turkey was an essential partner of the US in the fight against IS, and praised Turkey’s contributions.
  • So it is natural that the Turks think they can always fool their allies: they help jihadist terrorists and in return get pats on the shoulder.

The Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (the Islamic State, or IS) has been the number one target for the world’s democratic nations, since it captured large swaths of land in Syria and Iraq last summer and declared caliphate under sharia law in the lands it controls. The United States and its allies have been waging a war against IS at a distance. So is NATO ally Turkey, at least theoretically, and not at a distance.

In reality, things are a bit different. Especially since the beginning of this year, several press reports in local and international media outlets told chilling stories about how jihadists move freely and recruit fighters in some of Turkey’s biggest cities. “It is no secret that Turkey has become a fertile ground for jihadist activity. Turkey says it fights IS. Maybe it does. But just randomly and reluctantly,” said one EU ambassador in Ankara.

The Godly Role of a Mother and Grandmother

Written by Lillian Penner – 28th July 2015

“I have been reminded of your sincere faith, which first lived in your grandmother Lois and in your mother Eunice and, I am persuaded, now lives in you also.” (2 Timothy 1:5)

If Timothy’s grandmother Lois had not been faithful in passing on her faith to her daughter Eunice and her grandson Timothy we probably would not have First and Second Timothy in the Bible today. This is a good generational example of the importance of passing on the faith to future generations. Lois is our forerunner who modeled grandmothering for us.

Isn’t it interesting that nowhere in the Bible does it say that the church has the primary responsibility to pass on our faith to the next generation? It makes clear that parents and grandparents are the principal conduit to instruct their children about God and His love for them.

Mother and Grandmother’s role

Many grandparents are greatly concerned that their children are not passing on the values and faith by which they were raised. Parents and grandparents have a crucial role to fill, if faith is to be found on earth when Jesus comes back for His own. According to God’s word, God wants parents and grandparents to focus on passing on a godly legacy to the next generations. The demonstrations of our faithful walk with the Lord and our prayers for our children are powerful ways to pass on our faith to the next generation.

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.

Megachurch Trend Sees Global Growth: World’s Largest Congregations Are Now in Africa and Asia

July 25, 2015 – Beatrice Gitau – Christian Science Monitor

While the United States may have started the trend of megachuches, a new study shows that the future of super-size congregations lies abroad.

A survey by the Leadership Network, a Christian nonprofit organization, reveals that the world’s biggest churches are not in the United States, but in Asia and Africa.

For example, the world’s largest megachurch, Yoido Full Gospel Church in Seoul, South Korea has an attendance of 480,000 people. India is now home to more Christians than at any time in its history.

According to a list compiled by the Leadership Network, attendance is high in western and eastern Africa, and at least 25 of Africa’s megachurches are in Nigeria. Lagos, the capital, ranks second in the world after Seoul, with a combined weekly attendance of 346,500 people.

The Mahdi: Islam’s Awaited Messiah

Among the Major Signs, the most anticipated and central sign that Muslims are awaiting is the coming of a man known as, “The Mahdi.”  In Arabic, al-Mahdi means, “The Guided One” 1 He is also sometimes referred to by Shi’a Muslims as Sahib Al-Zaman or  Al-Mahdi al-Muntadhar which translated mean “The Lord of the Age” and “The Guided/Awaited One.”  The Mahdi is the first of the Major Signs.  This is confirmed by Ibn Kathir, the renowned Muslim scholar from the eighth century:

After the lesser signs of the Hour appear and increase, mankind will have reached a stage of great suffering.  Then the awaited Mahdi will appear; He is the first of the greater clear, signs of the Hour.2

The coming of the Mahdi is the central crowning element of all Islamic end-time narratives.  So central to Islamic eschatological expectations is the coming of the Mahdi, that some Muslim scholars do not even refer to “the Minor Signs” as such, but instead, refer to them as, “The signs accompanying the Mahdi”. 3 While there are some variations of belief between the Sunni and Shia’ sects of Islam and while certain quarters of Sunnis reject him altogether, general belief in the Mahdi is not a sectarian issue within Islam, but is universal among most Muslims.  According to Shaykh Muhammad Hisham Kabbani, chairman of the Islamic Supreme Council of America:

The coming of the Mahdi is established doctrine for both Sunni and Shi’a Muslims, and indeed for all humanity 4

Dear family & friends in Christ,

https://youtu.be/tmmOrbqd90I

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’.”

WHAT A TRUE CHRISTAN REALLY LOOKS LIKE

4/29/2015 Bethany Blankley – Charisma News

It’s easy to understand why nearly all non-Christians, secularists and the media misunderstand Christianity. Today words and their definitions are nearly meaningless because the same words are used to support particular, even opposite agendas. Relativism and proof-texting are the means to this end, justifying the terms people use about themselves and others.

Division among denominations, churches, organizations, and even personalities advocating their own version of truth certainly hinders non-believers from understanding Christianity.

However, identifying real Christianity and the people of the Cross is straightforward.

Christianity is rooted in the historical person and work of Jesus Christ. Jesus’ words and actions communicate God’s unconditional, immeasurable love, expressing God’s unbending commitment to human redemption. To know Jesus is to know God; one’s belief about Jesus yields eternal consequences.

A true Christian believes Jesus is not only the Word of God but he is the key to understanding God’s revelation (John 1, 5, 8; Romans). Jesus made authoritative claims about His deity, the eternal co-existing relational nature of God, and the necessity for salvation, truth and life, all of which only He can provide. His claims got Him killed (John 10:29, 30, 8:24-27, 5:18, 3:35, 15:26, 19:10-11; Luke 2:49, 11:13; 1 John 4; 1 Pet. 1; Matt. 26:39).
