The Truth Is!

The Golden Report – Jerry Golden from Jerusalem, Israel – 14th February 2010

We have an enemy that is unstoppable and must be recognized as our foe and not our friend.  That enemy is time, and the longer Israel waits to attack Iran, Lebanon, Syria, Hezbollah and Hamas the more likely it is that we will have to take on others such as Egypt – and consequently more Jews will die in Israeli cities. 

America has a problem much like ours here in Israel.  If the freedom loving citizens of the US don’t rise up against the Obama administration’s destruction of the Constitution they will soon lose the liberties they so cherish.  Time is not on their side, the enemy has diabolically been planning the destruction of the Jews as well as the United States.

All hell is about to break loose and we all know it, but seem to be powerless to do anything about it.   Pray as we may, God’s prophetic Word will come to pass regardless of human events..

Islamic Finance for Australia!

Salt Shakers I-List – Jenny Stokes – 12th February 2010

Some time ago I read that there was some investigation occurring into the provision of Islamic finance in Australia.
 
Today, the Trade Minister, Simon Crean, launched a booklet published by the Australian government called Islamic Finance.

It has been produced by Austrade (part of the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade).
 
The media release says “The booklet Islamic Finance provides a detailed explanation of the opportunities that booming Shariah-compliant investment and banking offers Australia’s financial services sector.”
 
In the booklet, the ‘opportunities’ for the expansion of Islamic finance in Australia are explored – including attracting more international banks and Islamic banks to Australia to provide the finance, Australian banks providing shariah-compliant finance, funds managers doing Islamic finance etc etc…. (Page 6)

The booklet then looks at a wide range of trade areas in Australia and ways they could ‘benefit’ from or use shariah or Islamic finance!

Yemen Negotiates Release of Christian Hostages

by Wolfgang Polzer : Jan 14, 2010 : ASSIST News Service

Government Claims to Know Whereabouts of German Family and British Engineer

The government of Yemen has started negotiations for the release of six Christian hostages.

A German family of five and a British engineer are held captive in the Northern province of Saada, according to foreign minister Abu Bakr al-Qirbi. He was quoted by the German television channel ARD.

Johannes and Sabine Hentschel (both 37) and their children Lydia (5), Anna (3) and Simon (1) as well as the engineer were kidnapped six months ago during an outing near Saada. They were with two German Bible school students and a South Korean teacher. They were found murdered on June 12. The nine Christians had been working at the Al Jumhuri hospital in Saada.

Myth Of The Anti-Muslim Backlash

Investors.com ^ | January 13, 2010 | PAUL SPERRY  – Posted on 14 January 2010 by Kaslin
 
The Council on American-Islamic Relations warns that making an issue of Islamic terror incites “hate crimes” against innocent Muslims, but federal data disprove that. And commendably, the Obama administration is ignoring the Islamist pressure group’s latest bluff.

The White House has added top CAIR donor Saudi Arabia to a list of 14 mostly Muslim nations whose travelers will undergo extra airport-security screening in the wake of the Christmas Day airliner attack by a Muslim passenger. CAIR slammed the new policy as “across-the-board profiling” and griped “Muslims will pay the price for this one.”

That’s standard post-Islamic-terror bluster by CAIR, which remains under a cloud of terror suspicion itself following its 2007 federal designation as an unindicted co-conspirator in the largest terror finance case in U.S. history. The group is quick to argue that increased security only serves to demonize innocent Muslims and put a bull’s-eye on their backs.

But it’s a red herring, and one that can have the dangerous effect — designed or not — of taking authorities off the scent of radical Muslims.

Billy Graham’s Suit – I not only know who I am .. I also know where I’m going.’

Billy GrahamBilly Graham is now 90 years old with Parkinson’s disease.

In January 2000, leaders in Charlotte, North Carolina,  invited their favorite son, Billy Graham, to a luncheon in his honor.

Billy initially hesitated to accept the invitation because he struggles with Parkinson’s disease. But the Charlotte  leaders said, ‘We don’t expect a major address. Just  come and let us honor you.’ So he agreed..

After wonderful things were said about him, Dr. Graham  stepped to the rostrum, looked at the crowd, and said,  ‘I’m reminded today of Albert Einstein, the great physicist who  this month has been honored by Time magazine as the  Man of the Century. Einstein was once traveling from  Princeton on a train when the conductor came down the  aisle, punching the tickets of every passenger. When he  came to Einstein, Einstein reached in his vest pocket. He  couldn’t find his ticket, so he reached in his trouser pockets.  It wasn’t there, so he looked in his briefcase but couldn’t find it.  Then he looked in the seat beside him. He still couldn’t find it.

Breaking News- Satanic cult leader from Mount Ainslie in Canberra, Australia accepts Jesus / by Pas Daniel

Culture Clash - Mixed Blessings: Mt Ainslie Exorcism Faces Its Own DemonsDear family and friends in Christ,

The last few days have been just so exciting to see what the Lord Jesus Christ is doing in our nation of Australia, in this Great South Land of the Holy Spirit!

Please do take the time to read through this email as it will bless you heaps to believe and know that all things are possible with God!

On 17th October 2009 we at CTFM decided to follow the leading of the Holy Spirit to pray on Mount Ainslie in Canberra, Australia and to pull down the strongholds of the enemy (devil) through spiritual warfare prayer. I’m sure most of you remember this as it was well covered by much of the media across the nation.  I was criticized by many within the church body for putting faith into action into what many thought was terribly politically incorrect. However, when the Lord tells us to do something, we should do it despite what others think or say! In other words, as followers of Christ, we must step out of the boat and begin to walk on the supernatural waters of the Spirit of God for Him to show Himself strong on our behalf and for a nation to bow down to worship Him as King of kings and LORD of lords!

I received many threatening messages before I led a Christian intercessory prayer team from around the nation to Mount Ainslie in Canberra, the capital city of Australia.  Particularly, one of the satanic leaders in Canberra said that the Satanists would attack us if we Christians came up on the mountain, but praise our Most High God that we did not back off but carried out our spiritual warfare assignment from the Lord of Hosts!

Sarah Palin: We Won’t Get Over Abortion, Real Women’s Advocates Pro-Life

Potential 2012 Presidential Candidate Sarah PalinLife News | 1/21/10 | Steven Ertelt – Posted on 23 January 2010

Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) — Former vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin has a message for the mainstream media and abortion advocates. In a new note encouraging pro-life advocates at the March for Life, the former Alaska governor says pro-life people won’t “get over” abortion because abortions hurt women.

Palin starts the message, shared with her more than one million fans on FaceBook, with encouragement for the hundreds of thousands at the March for Life.

“Tomorrow the 37th annual March for Life will occur in Washington, D.C. January is a tough month to schedule a march in Washington, but every year hundreds of thousands of everyday Americans from across our nation brave the cold weather on the anniversary of the Roe vs. Wade decision to bear a positive witness to the culture of life,” Palin writes.

Pat Robertson Under Fire for Haiti Remarks

Pat RobertsonThursday, 14 January 2010 – Adrienne S. Gaines News – Featured News – Charisma

Christian broadcaster Pat Robertson has come under fire for remarks he made Wednesday on his 700 Club program suggesting the 7.0-magnitude earthquake that devastated Haiti Tuesday was a consequence of a pact Haitian leaders may have made with Satan 200 years ago.

“They were under the heel of the French, you know Napoleon the third and whatever, and they got together and swore a pact to the devil,” said Robertson, founder of the Christian Broadcasting Network (CBN). “They said, ‘We will serve you if you will get us free from the French.’ True story.

“And so the devil said, ‘OK, it’s a deal.’ And they kicked the French out. The Haitians revolted and got themselves free. But ever since they have been cursed by one thing after another.”

Robertson said the Dominican Republic, which shares the island of Hispaniola with Haiti, is “prosperous, healthy, full of resorts, etc.,” while Haiti is “in desperate poverty.” (more…)

QED – Abbott and the Bible

Tony AbbottQED – Abbott and the Bible –  by Ben-Peter Terpstra – January 31, 2010

Tony Abbott’s pro-Bible statements outraged his opponents. And the reason is obvious to all with marbles.

In socialist circles, encouraging pupils to study Judeo-Christian texts is a sin. …

Click the following to keep reading http://www.quadrant.org.au/blogs/qed/2010/01/abbott-and-the-bible

Many Christian groups have praised and even promoted Mr Rudd for being a Christian. Strangely they have been very quiet about Mr Abbott’s Christian faith since he became Liberal leader.

All too often this seems to suggest that it is actually Mr Rudd’s brand of politics, rather than his faith, that they are applauding.

At the same time the atheists, humanists and socialists have been very quiet about Mr Rudd’s ‘faith’ yet have come out firing as soon as Mr Abbott became Liberal Leader and have continued to fire at him ever since.

Again suggesting that the real motivation is politics rather than faith.

Soldiers learn Biblical history of Air Base

U.S. Forces Iraq – Spc. Lisa A. Cope, USA – Posted on 01/10/2010 by SandRat

AL ASAD AIR BASE — Over the past 4,000 years, the terrain in Iraq has changed drastically. But according to the oral tradition of the Bedouins, one of Abraham’s resting places during his biblical journey from Ur to Canaan is located aboard this base.

The oasis at Al Asad, commonly referred to as Abraham’s Oasis or Abraham’s Well, would have been critical to Abraham’s travels through the desert.

Capt. Michael T. Lanigan, the chaplain with Task Force Atlas, 41st Infantry Brigade Combat Team out of Portland, Ore., has studied the Bible and the history of the site.

“Abraham’s Oasis was one of the few stopping points that … according to the oral tradition of the Bedouins, was where Abraham and his family stopped before going on to Canaan, which is Jerusalem, the promised land, where God had called him,” said Lanigan, a Salem, Ore., native.

Lady healed of severe leg pains and walks without walker!Body of Christ Unites to Catch the Fire of Holy Spirit Revival in Kangaroo Island, South AustraliaDear family & friends in Christ,

1) What a mighty weekend once again of ministering in the Holy Spirit miracle working power of God, as many more precious people were supernaturally healed, delivered and set free by the life transforming grace and love of the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ in Melbourne (Hallam), Victoria and Kangaroo Island, South Australia! 

Pastor Daniel led a team from CTFM to minister at several combined church services on Kangaroo Island on Saturday evening 30th and Sunday morning and evening 31st January. What was most exciting was that the local Uniting church was the host of all of the Holy Spirit revival meetings for the body of Christ and Kingdom of God on Kangaroo Island!

We give all the praise, honour, and glory to our loving Father in heaven for bringing together the body of His Son, from the Uniting, Seventh Day Adventist, Lutheran, Anglican, Baptist and AOG denominations, to lift up the matchless Name above all names, the Lord Jesus Christ!  Some of these churches even cancelled their scheduled Sunday morning services to join in this united move of God’s Holy Spirit and Fire! Truly, this was absolutely incredible, especially in our nation of Australia!

MUSLIMS CONVERTED TO CHRIST IN IRAQ

by Dr. Peter Hammond

General Georges Sada, a former air force fighter pilot who once served as a senior military advisor to Saddam Hussein, is one of thousands of Iraqis who have become followers of the Lord Jesus Christ.

The remarkable testimony of General Sada was passed on to me by a former Frontline Fellowship mission worker, John Michael, who is working as a security advisor in Iraq. John Michael writes: “With all the negative and extremely disturbing violent news coming out of the Middle East, there is good news. Where there is conflict, there needs to be sober examination of our own faith as we are put to the test. Our purpose and meaning to life must be scrutinized. What is overwhelmingly obvious is that those who promote freedom and respect towards others are expressing their own personal faith in the God of the Bible. However, when confronting a religious system that lives for, and thrives on, violent conflict in Jihad with suicidal martyrdom seen as the only assurance of salvation, the question remains – what is the purpose of living? The hope for a peaceful and blessed life is really limited when such an extremely violent death is sought after. This raises some really disturbing questions about such a religious system, which has so little respect for humanity and life in general.”

“Religion can be a curse or a blessing. There is the God who blesses with life in all its abundance, and there is the god who steals, deceives, kills and destroys. It becomes as clear as the day when Elijah confronted the false prophets of Baal on Mount Carmel. The power of God was revealed with fire from on high showing who the true God was (1 Kings 18). This spectacular demonstration of God’s power, awe and might is now clearly on display in Iraq for all the world to see who really is the one true God.”
