Rudd’s Hair

Andrew Bolt of Herald Sun on Friday August 14, 2009

Michael Smith‘s editorial on 4BC yesterday seemed to go down very well:

Here’s a way to understand Mr Rudd’s Carbon Pollution Reduction Scheme.

Imagine 1 kilometre of atmosphere that we want to rid of human carbon pollution.  We’ll have a walk along it.  The first 770 metres are Nitrogen.  The next 210 metres are Oxygen.  That’s 980 metres of the 1 kilometre.  20 metres to go.  The next 10 metres are water vapour.  10 metres left.  9 metres are argon.  Just 1 more metre.  A few gases make up the first bit of that last metre.  The last 38 centimetres of the kilometre – that’s carbon dioxide.  A bit over one foot.  97% of that is produced by Mother Nature.  It’s natural.   Out of our journey of one kilometre, there are just 12 millimetres left.  About half an inch.  Just over a centimetre.  That’s the amount of carbon dioxide that global human activity puts into the atmosphere.  And of those 12 millimetres Australia puts in .18 of a millimetre.  Less than the thickness of a hair.  Out of a kilometre.

As a hair is to a kilometre – so is Australia’s contribution to what Mr Rudd calls Carbon Pollution.  (more…)

Abbott and another Costello – Abbott’s high calling

The Australian December 01, 2009 – Drew Warne-Smith and Natasha Robinson

A WEEK ago, when Tony Abbott determined to run for the opposition leadership, he did what he has always done at a critical juncture in his life: he rang Emmet Costello.

A “somewhat retired” 85-year-old Jesuit priest, Costello was formerly the chaplain at St Ignatius College Riverview, on Sydney’s north shore, where Abbott was schooled.

And for the past 35 years he has remained Abbott’s mentor and closest confidant; a man he credits as “the most important male influence on my life” apart from his father.

“Tony rang and said, I’m going for it; I’m going for the leadership, and could you remember me in your prayers,” Costello told The Australian yesterday.

“I said, don’t worry about that, I’ll storm Heaven for you. God can’t say no to me!”

Ahmadinejad: Obama Must Choose Iran or Israel

Iranian President Mahmoud AhmadinejadFriday, 13 November 2009 – ICEJ
  
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said President Barack Obama must choose between Israel and Iran. The comment was made Tuesday in Istanbul during an economic address before the 57-nation Organization of the Islamic Conference.

“The support of both Israel and Iran can’t go hand in hand. No change is made unless great choices are made,” said Ahmadinejad. “We will clasp any hand that is extended sincerely toward us, but changes should be made in practice.”

During a briefing at the Middle East Institute in Washington, Undersecretary of State William Burns responded to the remarks: “We seek a relationship with the Islamic Republic of Iran based upon mutual interest and mutual respect. We do not seek regime change. We have condemned terrorist attacks against Iran.

A mighty weekend of Holy Spirit Fire in Melbourne/ Hindu lady accepts Jesus and removes all idols from her home

Removing and destroying idolsDear family & friends in Christ,

1) All glory to the Lord Jesus Christ as the Spirit of God continues to move mightily in response to our desperate hunger for Him!  We only need to welcome Him and give Him all the time He needs at our services to do what He wants to do! Unfortunately, in a 1 hr 30 minute service there’s not enough time for Him to move and minister amongst the children of God! However, at our CTFM meetings we let the Holy Spirit have His way throughout the 3-4 hour services as He always moves mightily in healing, delivering, and setting people free at every single meeting!

Over the weekend several hundred desperate Christian worshippers gathered at Hallam (Melbourne) to soak and press deeper into the manifest presence of God. All glory to our loving Father in heaven as everyone present was mightily touched by the Spirit of the Lord. Some even drove 4-5 hours to get a drink from the rising river of God’s awesome presence. One thing I am beginning to see is that much of the pew (just normal people with no profile) is becoming desperate for more of Jesus while many pulpits are trying to control the sovereign move of God’s Holy Spirit, partly because of denominational structures which often hinder the Spirit of God from moving in the local church.

We must let go of the reign of the Christ’s Church and let Him have His way as we worship Him in Spirit and Truth. I am sure everyone wants to see revival, but unfortunately it will not come if we Christian leaders try to control the move of God’s Holy Spirit.

Revolution the new spirit of the Libs’ true fightback

Herald Sun – 27th November 2009 – Andrew Bolt

MALCOLM Turnbull is gone and all but buried. In a stunning revolt, the Liberals grassroots are reclaiming a party hijacked by a leader of the Left.

Turnbull’s leadership was finally shot dead by frontbencher Tony Abbott and the Liberals’ Senator leader, Nick Minchin.

Both told Turnbull he had to reconsider the decision that he (falsely) claimed the party took on Wednesday – to back Rudd’s colossal emissions tax to “stop” global warming.

When Turnbull refused, Abbott quit. Minchin will, too, rather than vote for a tax he knows is a fraud.

That triggered a mass resignation of other frontbenchers, enraged not only by Turnbull’s deceit, but determined to overturn his decision as well.

What’s telling is how the collapse of Turnbull’s leadership has shocked most mainstream political commentators. (more…)

Oprah or Jesus: Who’s right?- Evangelical author Josh McDowell takes on theology of media icon

Oprah Winfrey - New Age / False ProphetPosted on WorldNetDaily on October 04, 2009

DALLAS, Texas – “One of the mistakes that human beings make is believing that there is only one way to live, and we don’t accept that there are diverse ways to being in the world. There are many paths to what you call God.”

Oprah Winfrey said it. And when she did, many Americans who love Oprah believed it. But one of the best-selling living evangelical authors, Josh McDowell, is not about to sit back and let that statement go unchallenged.

The result is a very unusual book – both in Christian publishing and in the world of secular literature.

Get your autographed copy of “O God” exclusively from the team that published it – WND Books and the WND Superstore.

It’s called “O God: A Dialogue on Truth and Oprah’s Spirituality” – and its official debut in bookstores nationwide comes tomorrow.

“As Christian apologists who believe that salvation is by God’s grace alone, through faith alone, and in Christ alone, we wanted to create a fictional, almost Socratic dialogue that would cover many of the themes of Oprah Winfrey’s spiritual teaching in recent years,” explain McDowell and co-author Dave Sterrett in their preface.

We thank the Father in heaven for His mighty hand continually at work in our nation of Australia as this past week gone by saw many people healed, delivered and set free by the supernatural power of God!
 
In Melbourne (Hallam) one of the leading Satanists in Australia surrendered her life to the Lord Jesus Christ as a direct result of the national spiritual breakthrough at Mount Ainslie in Canberra on the 17th October. As the Catch The Fire ministry team led by Pastor Daniel prayed for her she was delivered from many demonic spirits over a period of 3 hours. The demonic spirits left her body screaming, shouting and vomiting blood. Please pray for this woman who is not yet fully set free and is in great danger of being attacked by a Satanic cult. At this point unfortunately we cannot give out more info for her safety.
 
On Saturday 21st November Pastor Daniel ministered in Sydney at the conference ‘Protecting Australia’s Christian Heritage’ organized by Rev Fred Nile. Pas Daniel spoke on ‘Why is the West being de-Christianised’? There were many other Christian leaders speaking too which all contributed to a very success conference.

When Perfect Pastors Divorce

Pastor invloved in adulteryCharisma Magazine – Tuesday, 13 October 2009 – Tamara Lowe

Pastor Jack (not his real name) stood before his congregation in tears. He said, “I have to confess that I have been involved in an extramarital affair. Effective today I am resigning as the senior pastor of this church. I’m sorry.” The congregation sat in shocked silence. Many wept.

I never saw it coming. Just a week earlier I had taken the pastor’s beautiful wife, Angela, out to lunch. She acted as if she didn’t have a problem in the world. Everything was great. I asked her, “How did you meet Jack?” Her answer is still vivid in my mind.

Scientology targets young kids

By Rosie Squires From: The Sunday Telegraph November 22, 2009

THE NSW Government has warned principals about a Church of Scientology attempt to infiltrate primary schools with propaganda videos and booklets aimed at Year 6 students.

The Sunday Telegraph has learned an organisation called Youth for Human Rights, which is sponsored by the controversial group, sent an educational DVD about human rights to schools last month.

Titled Youth for Human Rights – 30 Rights, 30 Ads, it is a series of public service announcements concerning each article of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

But the misleading cover letter does not acknowledge the relationship between the organisation and the church.

The sole indicator that the DVD is linked to the Church of Scientology is an L. Ron Hubbard quotation printed on the back of the DVD cover that reads: “Human rights must be made a fact, not an idealistic dream – L. Ron Hubbard.”

Hackers ‘expose global warming con’: Sceptics claim that leaked emails reveal research centre massaged temperature data

Hackers targeted the University of East Anglia\'s Climatic Research Unit, pictured, and published sensitive emails on the internetMail Online by Fiona Macrae 21st November 2009

One of the world’s leading climate change research centres has been accused of manipulating data on global warming after thousands of private emails and documents were leaked.

Hackers targeted the University of East Anglia’s Climatic Research Unit and published the files, including some personal messages, on the internet.

Among the most damaging is one which appears to suggest using a ‘trick’ to massage years of temperature data to ‘hide the decline’.

The CRU, which plays a leading role in compiling UN reports and tracks long-termchanges in temperature, has repeatedly refused to provide detailed information about the data underlying the temperature records.

It is thought that this could have triggered the theft. Climate change sceptics claim that some of the leaked messages discuss ways of manipulating data that fails to comply with the establishment view that climate change is real and is being driven by man.

Brazil’s March for Jesus Draws 1.5 Million Evangelicals

March 4 Jesus BrazilBy Ethan Cole|Christian Post Reporter Tue, Nov. 03 2009

The annual “March for Jesus” event in Brazil drew more than 1.5 million evangelical Christians Monday.

In its 17th year, the event brings together hundreds of evangelical churches in a country that is home to the world’s largest Roman Catholic population. Seventy-four percent of the country describes themselves as Roman Catholic.

The march is held each year on the same day the Catholic Church celebrates the Corpus Christi holiday, which is not observed by evangelical Protestants but is a national holiday in Brazil.

Participants marched 2.5 miles in San Paulo and heard music from Christian bands and messages from preachers and local celebrities, according to The Associated Press.

The event was sponsored by Reborn in Christ Church, whose leaders had recently returned after serving a combined year’s worth of U.S. legal punishment for attempted money smuggling. The punishment included a prison sentence, house arrest, and probation. Estevam Hernandes Filho and his wife, Sonia Haddad Moraes Hernandes, had failed to declare $56,000 in cash that they had carried on a flight from San Paulo to Miami. The money was hidden among a child’s backpack, a Bible case and other bags.
