ANGRY ATHEISTS CONTINUE ATTACK ON 'GROUND ZERO' CROSS
Following a big victory for the Ground Zero cross earlier this year, where a federal judge threw out an atheists lawsuit to tear down the Cross, angry atheists are now appealing that ruling to a federal appeals court.

SHOULD CHRISTIAN MINISTERS SIGN UP FOR REALITY TV SHOWS?
A reality show called 'Preachers of LA', has recently begun airing on tv channels in the US. My initial reaction when I read this was, 'Really?! Why?'.

NEW 'JESUS' BILLBOARD SPARKS OUTRAGE
A new billboard campaign in the US has sparked outrage among many Christians. The billboards are the brainchild of the group behind Jesustattoo.org, and are meant to be a form of evangelism to get people talking about Christ.
This has, however, not gone down well with a lot of Christians in the town in Texas were the campaign was begun and I don't blame them. Granted, the propagation of the gospel is important, but isn't the means of this propagation important too?
Is it right to go against God's word in order to spread that same word? Does the end always justify the means? In this instance, I don't think so!
Leviticus 19:28,
“ ‘Do not cut your bodies for the dead or put tattoo marks on yourselves. I am the LORD."
Some may say it's the old testament. Yeah, but it's still the word of God, isn't it?

I was chilled to the bone when I read this story, but not surprised. Whenever people turn their backs on God in favour of humanism, this is the sort of chaos that can result.

NEW BEGINNINGS
The start of something new is often the most daunting and difficult part of the process. Be it a new project, a new relationship, a marriage, a job, school, name it. Those first steps are usually the toughest.
I'm not suggesting for one second that after the initiation period it's all smooth sailing henceforth, and no effort is required to maintain what has been started. It takes a lot of hard work to keep up with any worthwhile undertaking, but I still think there's something peculiar about new beginnings.

A QUANDARY!
Yesterday at church, I was having an innocent discussion with a friend when she unwittingly gave out some crucial information about a certain person whose services we both employ. For reasons of privacy, I shall not be divulging what the information was nor the service they provide.
HYMNS ANCIENT AND MODERN
After many years of not having one, (I left the Anglican Church many years ago), I've just acquired a new hymnbook, and it feels as if I've won the jackpot! The feelings of nostalgia that the hymns evoke are unbelievable. It's not really that I miss the Anglican church services, it's more the memories of my school days when we used to sing hymns from this book every morning at school assembly. A hymn book was among the required list of books on starting school.

HOW TO BECOME AN OVERNIGHT BILLIONAIRE IN NIGERIA - FEMI ARIBISALA
Mr Aribisala is at his sarcastic best again! This had me in stitches. He lists several ways to get rich quick in Nigeria, but for his third recommendation really did it for me. A sad indictment of the prevalent brand of Christianity in our dear country! See what he says below:
PERSPECTIVE
I read the following story and found it worth sharing.
'There was once a man who always said, “this is good” to everything that happened to him. He went with his king on a shooting trip, loaded the guns and the king shot them. He loaded one gun wrong and when it went off it shot the king’s thumb off. Faced with this situation, the friend said as usual, “this is good.” Well, the king got livid and cast his friend in confinement. “No, this is not good.”

THOSE PESKY WEEDS!
I love gardening. It's hard work and I can't always find the time to do it, but whenever I can I take the opportunity with both hands, literally :-). It's a small garden, not much at all, but whenever I'm out there I'm in my own little world.

FAITH IN HIM
Faith in Him: Subjective or Objective?
Many of today’s teaching, especially in the Body of Christ (The Church) have continued to centre on having a subjective faith rather than a complete trust in the supreme counsel and divinity of God. Subjectivity of faith gives a picture of a believer having an amount of the so called “faith” as a force bringing about a reality of the things they have desired and hoped for, majorly when it comes to materialism. It is also used on the biological aspect of our body or health. Compounding these two thoughts we have come to derive what is popularly known as the Health and the Wealth Gospel.

PASTOR ON TRIAL FOR READING BIBLE IN PUBLIC!
If this were happening somewhere in the Middle East or in an Islamic country, it wouldn't be out of the ordinary, but no, it's actually happening in California, USA!
Religious freedoms are slowly but surely being eroded, even in so-called liberal nations. Worrying times indeed! Come Lord Jesus!
