Saudi Arabian Sheiks Legally Importing Bibles

Saudi Arabian Sheiks Legally Importing BiblesBreaking Christian News – Mar 24, 2014

(Saudi Arabia)—The following is from a worker in the Middle East who wishes to remain anonymous:

For the last 30 years, people have smuggled Bibles into this Islamic country in the Arabian Peninsula in suitcases, been increasingly caught and deported and the Bibles destroyed. Six years ago, I decided that if I could make one contribution to the Gospel, I would import them legally.

I was a neighbor to some very powerful sheiks. As my Arabic steadily improved, I became more interesting to them. I would meet them regularly for conversation over tea. One of the sheiks, older than I am, invited me weekly to his house, as I was friends with his son and a cousin. They often asked my reason in living in the Arabian Peninsula. I operate a bona fide business providing services the locals cannot.

Love is patient

In conversation, as we talked about the Qur’an, I would mention the Injil (Gospel) and the position of the Bible in the Qur’an. It says that we should read the Torah, the Zabur (Psalms), the Injil—all of God’s books. So I challenged them to read the Injil, saying that we in fairness could not dialogue about them unless all of us have read them, as I would have an unfair advantage as the only one in our group to have done so. The Qur’an does not speak of only one volume; it is a multi-volume work. In my view, many Muslims have been disobedient to the Qur’an by not reading all of the volumes God has given us. In humility, as an outsider who has read all the books, I don’t want to enter into discussions until they also have read them.

Stop the ‘gay rights’ charade: Russia is only protecting its children

by CarolynRussia Moynihan – Feb 11, 2014

Let’s face it, Russians are different: Tsarism, Stalinism, Putinism all set Russia apart and have given the West a superiority complex. But, like the rest of us, Russians like to boast about the high points of their culture and history – Tolstoy, the Bolshoi, Sputnik and all that – which they did to awesome effect in the opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics at the weekend.

Not even the most expensive – and possibly most impressive — Olympic extravaganza to date, however, could obliterate the carping about gay rights that has accompanied the Sochi games. Everyone from UN boss Ban Ki Moon to a little old grandmother in Berlin has been wagging the finger or waving placards at Russia’s terrible homophobic laws.

“More than 200 leading international authors including Salman Rushdie, Margaret Atwood and Jonathan Franzen criticised the anti-gay law as well as blasphemy legislation as a ‘chokehold’ on creativity, in an open letter published in Britain’s Guardian newspaper,” according to one report.

Australia: Muslim who married 13-year-old girl has bail refused over child sex charges

Australia Muslim who married 13-year-old girl has bail refused over child sex chargesRobert Spencer Feb 7, 2014 – www.jihadwatch.org

Despite the abundant attestation for child marriage in Islamic law, most non-Muslims remain completely ignorant of it, because Islamic apologists in the West routinely deny that it exists, insisting that Aisha was 18 when Muhammad married her, and claiming that the incidence of child marriage in Muslim countries is due solely to cultural factors (they hope you don’t notice that those cultures are Islamic).

Those who point out that child marriage will come West with Muslim immigrants receive in response only ridicule and scorn as “bigots” and “Islamophobes.” But note that this story is from Australia, not Yemen or Iran or Saudi Arabia. And while Ahmad Chamma has been prosecuted, watch for pressure to amount to lower the legal marriage age, on the grounds of “multiculturalism” and “tolerance.”

Few things are more abundantly attested in Islamic law than the permissibility of child marriage. Islamic tradition records that Muhammad’s favorite wife, Aisha, was six when Muhammad wedded her and nine when he consummated the marriage:

“The Prophet wrote the (marriage contract) with Aisha while she was six years old and consummated his marriage with her while she was nine years old and she remained with him for nine years (i.e. till his death)” (Bukhari 7.62.88).

Faith Rising in East, Setting in West? Europe and Christianity

Bestselling author Eric Metaxas address industry leaders at the National Religious Broadcasters dinner in Nashville, Tenn., on Sunday, March 3, 2013.By Eric Metaxas, Christian Post Contributor – February 1, 2014|

If I asked you to describe the state of Christianity in Europe, you’d probably answer “not good.” And there’d be ample reason to do so. Most of us are familiar with the depressing statistics regarding church attendance in Western Europe and Scandinavia.

But there is more to Europe than Britain, France, and Sweden. And in Central and Eastern Europe, a different story is being written.

This story was the subject of a recent First Things article by Filip Mazurczak. In it, Mazurczak reveals to readers what is going on in former communist societies such as Hungary and Croatia. For instance, while the European Union notoriously omitted any mention of Europe’s Christian heritage in the preamble to its constitution, Hungary’s new constitution “ties Christianity to Hungarian nationhood.”

By way of additional contrast to the secularized E.U., the document “defines marriage as the union of a man and woman, [and] speaks of the rights of unborn Hungarians.”

An even more encouraging story is unfolding in Croatia. In December, two-thirds of the population there voted to amend the constitution to define marriage as the union of a man and a woman. For a nation aspiring for E.U. membership, this definitely went against the grain.

China: Christianity’s sleeping giant

Praying For ChinaPraying For ChinaUC Observer | 02/17/2014 | By Alex Jürgen Thumm

Churches — both legal and illegal — are booming in China. Some view them as a welcome counterpoint to rampant materialism. Others see ghosts of a colonial past.

It was my last Sunday morning in China, my last chance to experience church in a Communist country where, as far as I could tell, Christianity was basically forbidden. It was 2011, and I had been in Beijing for five weeks to study Mandarin. In that time, I hadn’t seen a single cross, church or Bible. In fact, I read at customs that you couldn’t bring in more than four Bibles from abroad. I had no idea that I was in the third-largest Christian country in the world.

In Liangmaqiao, a Beijing neighbourhood that’s home to the foreign and the wealthy, I arrived at the 21st Century Hotel, where the Beijing International Christian Fellowship (BICF) holds services. The parking lot was full of Rolls-Royces and BMWs bearing Jesus-fish decals. At the building entrance, two parishioners acting as doorkeepers asked me for ID — by government order, only foreigners may attend church. I had forgotten my passport, so the doorkeepers made me sign a slip of paper attesting to my alien status.

No blessings for gay unions – church

No blessings for gay unions - churchFebruary 17, 2014 – IOL News

London – Church of England priests will not be allowed to bless gay and lesbian weddings, or marry someone of the same sex themselves, according to new guidelines issued by the church, which is struggling to heal divides over homosexuality.

Same-sex marriage becomes legal in England next month, posing a dilemma for the Church of England, which is the mother church of the world’s 80 million Anglicans and maintains that marriage is between a man and a woman.

England and Wales legalised secular same-sex civil partnerships in 2005. A church working group suggested last year that clergy allow gay and lesbian couples to mark and celebrate marriages held under the new legislation, as well as civil partnerships, in a religious service.

MLK: Homosexuality a ‘Problem’ With a ‘Solution’

Matt Barber1/27/2014 – Clarion Call by Matt Barber

This past week America honored both the life and noble work of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., a Bible-believing Christian minister who did more to advance the cause of race-based civil rights than perhaps any other person in recent history.

Regrettably–and as they do each year–the same flock of opportunist “LGBT”-activist vultures quickly swooped in, picking the live flesh from MLK’s character-based “dream,” to advance their own behavior-based nightmare.

In what amounts to a sort of soft racism, this mostly white left-wing faction has, over the years, disingenuously and ignobly hitched its little pink wagon to a civil rights movement that, by contrast, is built upon the genuine and noble precepts of racial equality and humanitarian justice.

What was MLK’s position on the homosexual lifestyle and so-called “gay rights”? While he said little in public on the issue, what he did say made his viewpoint abundantly clear. Unlike the “LGBT” lobby, I’ll let Dr. King speak for himself.

Powerful meetings in Perth, WA / Live webcast Pr Daniel Sunday 6 April

Dear family & friends in Christ,

1) The meetings in Perth, WA over the past weekend were described by some as, “Powerful meetings with the anointing and presence of the Holy Ghost!”

Yes and amen as this is so true!

On Saturday night Pr Daniel led a prayer meeting with some intercessors from Perth.  As the group entered into deep intercession for Australia, and in particular the upcoming Senate Re-Election in WA, many started to travail and cry out to God for Godly leaders to be elected into Parliament. There was a real sense of “Lord, give us Australia,” as His Word says, “Ask of Me and I will give you the nations as an inheritance.

The prayer meeting ended with a great feeling of victory in the name of Jesus!

On Sunday Pr Daniel ministered at Dream Life Church with Pr Steve Davis. Here too, the presence of God was awesome as Pr Daniel spoke on the Prophetic Anointing, Apostolic Anointing and Calling. The people were mightily blessed.

Pr Daniel stated, “Unfortunately, many people talk the talk, but do not live and walk the talk.  

I thank God for people like Pr Steve who is bold take a stand for Jesus. Today, many Ministers of the Gospel back right off, if what God is calling them to do will bring disrepute to their reputation.  Let us all pray for these dear servants of God to rise up in the name of Jesus.”

The Rise Up Australia Party Senate Re-Election Campaign Rally on Monday at the Old Melbourne Hotel in Perth was very exciting and challenging. People who attended the meeting and heard the speeches from Jane Foreman, RUAP lead Senate Candidate, and Pr Daniel Nalliah the National President were greatly impacted.

There was a real sense of victory right throughout the meeting with people clapping and standing in agreement to Keep Australia Australian.  Many volunteered to help on the 5th of April as they were greatly challenged how RUAP policies have already had a great impact in the nation.

The Spirit Is Saying ‘Forward’!

The Spirit Is Saying 'Forward'!3/24/2014 Michael Brown  

While reflecting on a powerful quote from the lips of Catherine Booth, I was struck by the fact that the latest strategies of the American church, strategies to avoid conflict with the world, are not only wrongheaded. They are actually diametrically opposed to the strategies we should be following.

Let me explain what I mean.

Catherine Booth was the co-founder of the Salvation Army, along with her husband, William Booth, and for decades the Salvationists were known for their fearless, uncompromising preaching of the gospel, their sacrificial living and their compassionate care for the hurting and the poor.

Catherine was the more fiery preacher of the two, and in her sermon “Aggressive Christianity,” she exclaimed, “Opposition! It is a bad sign for the Christianity of this day that it provokes so little opposition. If there were no other evidence of it being wrong, I should know from that. When the church and the world can jog along together comfortably, you may be sure there is something wrong. The world has not altered. Its spirit is exactly the same as it ever was, and if Christians were equally faithful and devoted to the Lord and separated from the world, living so that their lives were a reproof to all ungodliness, the world would hate them as much as it ever did. It is the church that has altered, not the world.”

Reconciliation Assignment – Great Success on Palm Island, QLD

Group Photo of Intercessors in Townsville after time of prayers over our nationDear family & friends in Christ,Prayer, Repentance & Reconciliation Mission in Townsville & Palm Island, QLD

We thank and praise God for opening the doors for the CTFM team to visit Palm Island, QLD on a very special God given assignment to bring Reconciliation & Healing in between Indigenous peoples and others who have called Australia home.

A group of 21 intercessors led by Pastor Daniel from CTFM arrived in Townsville, QLD and then proceeded to Palm Island on the ferry on Thursday 20th March.  The group was joined by intercessors in Townsville led by Indigenous Pastor David Gela and the whole team set sail to Palm Island.

Right throughout the 2 hours the ferry rocked with worship, prayer and intercession over the waters of Australia. There was intense prayer and repentance for all the wrong we have done in our nation in the past, followed by much more prayer and prophetic declarations for the future.

As the ferry arrived in Palm IsWashing of the Indigenous Leaders feet and asking for forgivnessland it started to pour down with rain.  The Island’s Indigenous Elders were waiting for us and welcomed us on their land.Uniting as one

Later that day at the meeting for Reconciliation, the CTFM team washed the feet of several Indigenous people and asked them forgiveness for the wrong done to their forefathers.  As we humbled ourselves and washed their feet, there were many tears of love & joy.

Many of the Indigenous Elders stated, “We have never had the white man wash our feet.”  They were absolutely shocked.

One elder stated, “When the former PM Kevin Rudd said sorry, we were happy, but we knew that it was more a political statement.  However, what you people have done has brought real love and healing to our community. Thank you so much for coming all the way.”

Pr Daniel ministeringThen, we all stood in a circle and sang “Bind us together, Lord bind us together.”  As we started singing this song, the rain started to pour very heavily again and continued until we left.  Since the Island had not received hardly any rain for a long time, the people on the island called it ‘an act of God’.Humbling ourselves before the Lord praying for healing in the land of Australia

Yes, indeed, it was definitely the hand of God.  In Deuteronomy 28:12, the Word of God speaks specifically speaks of God sending the rain as a blessing when He is pleased with His people.  Isn’t that amazing. Glory to God.

“May the Lord open for you His good storehouse, the heavens, to give rain to your land in its season and to bless all the work of your hand.”
