Decriminalisation of Abortion Postponed

Dear Friends and Family in Christ,     (from Pastor Danny Nalliah) 

Many of you will have already heard the breaking news regarding the battle for life in Victoria; that is that Candy Broad’s bill to Infinity of Lifedecriminalise abortion has been withdrawn!

Instead, the new Premier of Victoria John Brumby has commissioned a group to research the issue more thoroughly and is expected to propose another bill in March 2008. He intends for abortion to be decriminalised in Victoria, but with similar restrictions as under the Menhennit ruling of 1969 (which permits abortion only if deemed necessary for the woman’s life or health).

This is both great news and a sobering alert on several levels! (more…)

During his interrogation, the whole village flooded the prison, requesting the release of Pastor Palakar. However, the investigator questioned their intent in wanting this pastor released. “When we were in trouble, no one helped us except this pastor,” one of them said. (more…)

Report on Howard & Rudd Showdown In Canberra – August 9th 2007

Dear Friends and Family in Christ,John Howard, on screen, addresses the Hillsong church congregation in Sydney yesterday. He promises to crack down on internet porn

The live webcast of Prime Minister John Howard and Opposition Leader Kevin Rudd was a tremendous  breakthrough in raising up Christian moral values across our nation! Below are media articles from The Australian, Herald Sun, Age, and Sydney Morning Herald.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       Ps. Danny of Catch the Fire Ministries who was present at the forum in Canberra, stated, “It was a fantastic event and clearly indicated Prime Minister John Howard’s defined stand for Christian values. On the other hand, I was very unhappy with the side-stepping responses that Opposition Leader Kevin Rudd gave, especially when questioned regarding Labor’s plans for the introduction of federal racial and religious vilification laws.” 

We applaud the Australian Christian Lobby for organizing such a history making event!

Good News From Iraq – a Direct Result of Prayer, Says Christian Delegation Who Prayed For Iraqi Prime Minister

Dr James Kennedy & Gary Cassby Christian Newswire Staff/TN : Aug 6, 2007 : Christian Newswire

“Isn’t it interesting that the very same weekend we pray for the Prime Minister, and for peace and freedom for all Iraqis, the mood concerning Iraq has significantly changed? The Iraqi soccer team unites the nation and the New York Times runs a positive op-ed that states the war might be winnable. Rush Limbaugh asked on his Monday program what happened over the weekend in Iraq. Some people believe in coincidences, we believe God is honored when we pray in Jesus’ name.”  (Photo: Drs. D.

Those Subversive Gideons

Posted: August 2, 2007  WorldNetDaily.com Inc.   1:00 a.m. Eastern

Think of all the dangerous characters lurking around our schoolchildren these days:
• There are drug dealers;
• There are gang members;
• And there are the sex predators – more and more of them posing as teachers.
With all these threats to the safety and well-being of their students, guess who school authorities in the state of Florida have targeted with more than one prosecution?
The answer: Two member of the Gideons International, those dangerous subversives who give away Bibles to anyone interested – including students walking to and from school.
It all started when Annette Martinson, the principal of the Key Largo School, spotted Ernest Simpson and Anthony Mirto of the Gideons handing out free copies of the Bible to anyone interested. In nothing flat, she was on the phone to the Monroe County sheriff’s department. (more…)

Victorian Premier Steve Bracks resigns – July 27, 2007

Steve BracksSteve Bracks, the leader who introduced the Racial and Religious Tolerance Act into Victoria (the law which raged with controversy over 5 years), announced his immediate resignation, followed by his Deputy John Thwaites, also resigning from his position in Parliament. This change of leader to the State Labor party has shocked many. We do know that many people have been and are praying for the best possible leaders to bring Godly influence accross our State & Nation. We continue to expect this in the days ahead.
It is our hope that his replacement, John Brumby, will be someone who has even better values than Mr Bracks. We wish him all the very best & God’s blessings, as he spends time with his family.

Could set crucial precedent and have far reaching effect for Egypt’s Christians.

(Cairo, Egypt)—In a move that could have far-reaching implications for Egypt’s Christians, an AFP story in the Middle East Times reports that Egypt’s official religious advisor has ruled that Muslims are free to change their faith as it is a matter between an individual and God.
Mufti Ali Gomaa“The essential question before us is…can a person who is Muslim choose a religion other than Islam? The answer is yes, they can,” Grand Mufti Ali Gomaa said in a posting on a Washington Post-Newsweek forum picked up by the Egyptian press Tuesday. Without elaborating, Gomaa added, that if the conversions undermine the “foundations of society” then it must be dealt with by the judicial system. (more…)

Vic State Government (ALP) About To Pass Decriminalization of Abortion Bill

Dear Family in Christ,

1)What an amazing article by Andrew Bolt! If you didn’t read it in the Herald Sun Newspaper on the 25th July, the article is below for your reference.

Isn’t it shocking that some Christian Leaders are planning to support the Decriminalization of Abortion Bill because they believe that they cannot stop it!  Instead they plan to call for amendments to the bill… (more…)

Another Gay Activist Shocks Nation with News of Salvation and Healing from Gay Lifestyle

Michael Glatzeby Art Moore/TN : Jul 4, 2007 : WorldNetDaily

“God came to me when I was confused and lost, alone, afraid and upset. He told me—through prayer—that I had nothing at all to be afraid of, and that I was home; I just needed to do a little house cleaning in my mind. I believe that all people, intrinsically, know the truth. I believe that is why Christianity scares people so much. It reminds them of their conscience, which we all possess.” (more…)
