Celebrities, Charlatans And The Kingdom Of God

By Bill Muehlenberg


It is both an amazing and a humbling truth that God has for some reason decided that his work in this world would largely be carried out by you and me. He has said that we his people will help to build his Kingdom. Despite our fallen, frail and fickle natures, he has wondrously and mysteriously chosen us to help get the job done.

That is an incredible thought. As Paul puts it in 2 Corinthians 4:7, we have this treasure (the glory of God) in earthen vessels (our own weak and stumbling selves). Imagine the humility and grace of God, to entrust this most vital of tasks to us.

It is almost as if I had a multi-million dollar business deal to stitch together, and I entrusted the whole job to a five-year-old boy. Or as if I must sit a rigorous PhD entrance exam, and I ask a four-year-old girl to take it for me. Or as if I choose to entrust the flying of a 747 to a three-year-old boy. (more…)

Christians Respond To Crisis In Myanmar

By Joshua Goldberg

As the worst cyclone and natural disaster to hit since the South East Asian tsunami crisis nearly four years ago continues to wreck havoc and bring unspeakable destruction among the people of Myanmar, Christian groups have been mobilized into action, carrying the burden of the Lord to all those in need.

World Vision is providing clean water and other relief supplies in Myanmar.Gospel for Asia (GFA), which has more than 400 churches and over 200 missions scattered throughout the nation, has been among the first groups to respond to the crisis, which has left an estimated 40,000 either dead or missing. The group has temporarily turned their Bible College in the capital of Rangoon into a makeshift shelter for over dozens of people.

Through GFA, dozens of villagers who have lost their homes and all their belongings are now being shown the love of Christ through the careless giving of food, water, and shelter. (more…)

Senior Judge Says British Family Life Is “In Meltdown”

“Family breakdown ‘ a cancer’ behind almost every evil affecting the country”

 A senior Family Division judge, Mr Justice Sir Paul Coleridge (58), who presides over family courts in the South-West, has launched an outspoken and devastating attack on the state of family life in Britain – and blamed the government for the breakdown of society. He made his remarks last Saturday (5 April) in a speech to family lawyers. The judge has been married for 35 years and has three children.

Using graphic language, he spoke of an ‘epidemic’ of family failures. He warned that children born into broken homes are increasingly turning to drink, drugs and crime. (more…)

Iranian Leader Ahmadinejad In Rudd’s Sights

By Dennis Shanahan – The Australian

Prime Minister Kevin RuddTHE Rudd Government is preparing a case to take Iran’s President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to the International Court of Justice for “inciting genocide” and denying the Jewish Holocaust.

Australia is the only nation pursuing Iran’s despotic leader, who has threatened to “wipe Israel off the map”, through international laws.

The Australian revealed last October that Kevin Rudd, then the Opposition leader, President Mahmoud Ahmadinejadpromised the Jewish community before last year’s election he would take legal proceedings in the ICJ against Mr Ahmadinejad.

The Labor leader said it was “strongly arguable” that Mr Ahmadinejad’s conduct – statements about wiping Israel off the map, questioning whether Zionists were human beings and a conference that he convened on the veracity of the Holocaust – amounted to incitement to genocide, which was criminalised under the 1948 genocide convention.

By Teresa Neumann

Sat 7 Work“Viewers have said that SAT-7 PARS is their only source of Christian teaching, training and encouragement. Others have worked with PARS counselors to learn how they can become followers of Christ, so much so, that more counselors were needed this year.”

(Iran)—Mission Network News reports that the length and severity of a crackdown in security targeting thousands of women and youth for violating Sharia law is unprecedented in the Islamic republic in recent years; but the harsh tactics may be having the opposite effect on Iran’s youth says David Harder of SAT-7, a Farsi-language, Christian satellite TV channel.

When Muslims Become Christians

Church & Mosque in Jerusalem

There’s a widespread belief that the penalty for leaving Islam is death – hence, perhaps, the killing of a British teacher last week. But Shiraz Maher believes attitudes may be softening.

Ziya Meral’s parents disowned him when he converted from Islam to Christianity.

“They said ‘go away, you’re not our son.’ They told people I died in an accident rather than having the shame of their son leaving Islam.”  (more…)

Israel’s 60th Celebration Report – May 13th 2008

Dear Family and Friends in Christ,

Part Of The Crowd In AttendanceI am not sure where to start, as my heart is almost totally overwhelmed with thanksgiving and complete joy! Seeing God move and knit together so many hearts at the celebration at the ‘Standing With Israel’ evening was such a sight! It was a visual experience – glorious banners expressing different aspects of the names of God. You could actually see the love transmitted from one to another, as God’s grace laced the words shared. The room buzzed with murmured approval as statements concerning Israel’s journey unfolded through the different speakers, many overwhelmed by what they saw and heard. David Mandel, Danny Lamm, Danny Nalliah, John Searle, Barry Rodgers

Korean President Lee Is Seen As A Man Of Faith

By Dan Wooding: Assist News/Baptist Press

Korean PresidentHe has been encouraged to have a time of prayer with President Bush and Laura Bush at their summit.

“Some say it is a new day in South Korea. After a landslide election in November, Myung-Bak Lee was sworn into office on February 19.”

So wrote Ann Lovell, a media worker based in Seoul with the Southern Baptist International Mission Board in a story for Baptist Press. She continued, “This has been good news for many of South Korea’s Christian leaders since Lee also is a member of the 70,000 member Somang Presbyterian Church in Seoul. One of the president’s chief advocates is Billy Kim, president of South Korea’s Far East Broadcasting Company and pastor of Suwon Central Baptist Church from 1960-2004. Kim, a former Baptist World Alliance president regarded as one of the world’s most influential Christian leaders, first earned international attention when he served as an interpreter for the 1973 Billy Graham crusade.
