Faith groups call for greater efforts to promote tolerance

Religious leaders and activists from a variety of faiths called for tolerance of one another and said the U.S. government should step up efforts to fight faith-based discrimination and persecution around the world.

“Everyone should have the right to believe or not believe,” said Suzan Johnson Cook, who was confirmed this year as the State Department’s ambassador-at-large for international religious freedom. “That is their God-given right.”

Several speakers at the daylong conference “Stop Religious Persecution Now,” held at The Washington Times, spoke in favor of a bill beforeCongress proposed by Rep. Frank R. Wolf, Virginia Republican, that would boost the State Department’s role as an advocate for religious freedom abroad.

Provisions of the bill would give U.S. Foreign Service officers new training on promoting religious freedom, shine a brighter spotlight on countries identified as restricting religious liberties and reauthorize the independent U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom.

Among those at the event were Christians, Muslims, Hindus and Sikhs. Other religions also were represented. Speakers and participants included lawmakers and administration officials, religious freedom advocates and representatives from such groups as the Center for Understanding Islam, the Hindu America Foundation and ChinaAid.

The event was co-sponsored by the U.S. chapter of the Universal Peace Federation and The Washington Times Foundation.

The faith activists said there was strength in unity in the fight against religious discrimination.

“The problem is that no faith community is safe,” said Tina Ramirez, director of government relations at the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty. “You might be the persecutor in one but the persecuted in another. So, unfortunately, religious persecution knows no bounds.”

This is a problem that is dividing world religions when they should instead be uniting, said the Rev. In Jin Moon, the keynote speaker. She is president and CEO of the Holy Spirit Association for the Unification of World Christianity and the daughter of the founder of The Washington Times, the Rev. Sun Myung Moon.

“Do we not belong to one family?” she said. “How can you mistreat another faith group just because you don’t understand them, just because you don’t agree?”

She urged fellow religious leaders to do more than simply “tolerate” or “coexist” with people from different faiths.

“I certainly do not look at my children and say, ‘I tolerate you’ or ‘I think we can coexist,’ ” she said.

Participants at the conference said persecution is not so much of a problem in America, but discrimination remains an issue.

“The U.S. is surely one of the freest of countries,” said Ramesh Rao, human rights coordinator at the Hindu America Foundation, “but even we have discrimination problems.”

He said American Hindus have encountered problems getting permission to build temples in the country.

Hansdeep Singh, senior staff attorney for the United Sikhs, said people in his religion encounter prejudice at airports across the country. Oftentimes, Transportation Security Administration screeners make him feel like a “caged animal” when they call for someone to pat him down before he even goes through the metal detector because of the turban he wears. “What did I do wrong?” he asked.

Rep. Gus M. Bilirakis, Florida Republican, recalled the story of how his godmother was forced out of Turkey because she was a Christian.

“Religious persecution is an issue that has personally touched me,” he said. “I will always be there for you, I promise you, because this is an issue very dear to my heart.”

8/7/11 - 'God the Father' banished by mainline denomination

United Church of Christ prefers 'to leave that more open for different expressions of the Trinity'
By Bob Unruh

Sen. Barack Obama with Rev. Jeremiah Wright

TheUnited Church of Christ,the denomination whose Chicago pastor Jeremiah Wright blasted the UnitedStatesand white people for years from the pulpit while Barack Obama sat in his pews, has decided to banish God "theFather" from its organizational documents.

A report from Eric Anderson on the denomination's website confirmed that delegates to the UCC's "General Synod 28" agreed late Monday to a series of proposed amendments to the constitution and bylaws. The vote was 613 in favor of the changes, 171 against and 10 abstaining.

The changes include a pointed deletion of a reference to God "as heavenlyFather," which has been part of Christendom's description of the Trinity for millennia – the three persons of God being the heavenly Father, Christ the Son and Savior, and the Holy Ghost, the counselor and comforter.

It was cited by Shakespeare, John Bunyan, John Milton, Oliver Cromwell and William Bradford, and now you, too, have the opportunity to own the "1599 Geneva Bible"

In Article V, referencing local churches, the constitution previously said, "A Local Church is composed of persons who, believing in God as heavenly Father and accepting Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, and depending on the guidance of the Holy Spirit, are organized for Christian worship, for the furtherance of Christian fellowship, and for the ongoingworkof Christian witness."

The new language, which still must be reviewed by the denomination's conferences, would be changed to say, "A Local Church is composed of persons who, believing in the triune God, accepting Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, and depending on the guidance of the Holy Spirit."

Other constitutional changes in the package approved by delegates meeting in Tampa, Fla., over the holiday weekenddealt with issues such as modifications in the church structure, the responsibilities of boards and committees.

Denomination spokeswoman Barb Powell told WND today that the change was made because the reference to "heavenly Father" was too restrictive.

"In the UCC, our language for God, Christ and the Holy Spirit … is preferred to be more open for different expressions of the Trinity," she said. "Heavenly Father is just one vision."

She told WND the denomination seeks to be "inclusive" in its language, "so therefore we will tend to change language that is more traditional to be more inclusive."

She said some of the denomination's pastors refer to God with terms such as "Creator" and "Father and Mother."

"There are a lot of people who decided, if God still is speaking to us, there is more light and truth to break forth," she said.

However, a group within the denomination,the Biblical Witness Fellowship,was critical of the editing.

"Rejecting God as Father in an age of fatherlessness is unthinkable," said David Runnion-Bareford, a leader of the fellowship organization. "God acted toward us in amazing grace when He offered to be our Father through the sacrifice of his Son, Jesus Christ who offers us life in his name.

"This is not something we as humans made up in some other time. Rejecting our Father is [an] act of arrogant rebellion in the name of cultural conformity that only further alienates members, churches, but more importantly God himself."

He noted the constitution had contained the reference since its founding in 1957, and said it "remains the covenant connection with the basic truths of Christianity that keeps many churches affiliated who are otherwise alienated by the denomination's very liberal agenda."

The organization, a group inside the denomination, warned that the UCC is "the leader among Protestant denominations in member loss."

"This is indeed a powerful confession by the Synod of the UCC that, having rebelled against the word of God, is on sinking sand – with our members, churches, historic witness, and identity in Christ washing away before our eyes," Runnion-Bareford said.

The organizationexplains on its websitethat it was "formed in alarmed response to decades of continued denominational decline that has resulted from the UCC's theological surrender to the moral and spiritual confusion of contemporary culture."

"The BWF attempts to network with renewal movements in other 'mainline' denominations as well as to expose churches to the rich diversity of resources available in the wider fellowship of the evangelical mainstream of the American church. In doing so, we hope to spark new vitality and faithfulness in the life of a denomination which seems to have strayed from its first love," the organization explains.

"We are deeply concerned about the alarming rate at which the UCC is encouraging the ordination of those who choose 'alternative' lifestyles (i.e., homosexuality, bisexuality and sexual activity outside of marriage), embrace moral relativism, seek authority in human experience, or are ambivalent about such basic beliefs as the Lordship of Jesus Christ, the reality of the Resurrection and other doctrines of the church which are the foundation of our faith. Continued ordination of ministers who cannot accept even the simplest truths of the Christian faith will only contribute to the further collapse of our church to the prevailing mythologies of the culture."

Anderson's report from the Florida meetings said delegate Robb Kojina of Hawaii urged adoption of the changes. According to Anderson, Kojina said, "This structure of governance is a missional model for us to do ministry in a post-modern world, that makes us responsible to discern God'svoicein our settings."

The UCC and its prominent Chicago pastor Wrightmade headlines during the 2008 presidential election because of Obama's 20-year membership in the church.

Wright famously condemned America in God's name and blamed the U.S. for provoking the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks by dropping nuclear weapons on Japan in World War II and supporting Israel since 1947.

ABC News reviewed dozens of Wright's sermons, finding repeated denunciations of the U.S., based on what he described as his reading of the Gospels and the treatment of black Americans.

"Thegovernmentgives them the drugs, builds bigger prisons, passes a three-strike law and then wants us to sing 'God Bless America.' No, no, no, God d--- America, that's in theBiblefor killing innocent people," he said in a 2003 sermon. "God d--- America for treating our citizens as less than human. God d--- America for as long as she acts like she is God and she is supreme."

In addition to damning America, he told his congregation on the Sunday after Sept. 11, 2001 that the U.S. had brought on al-Qaida's attacks because of its own terrorism, ABC News reported.

"We bombed Hiroshima, we bombed Nagasaki, and we nuked far more than the thousands inNewYorkand the Pentagon, and we never batted an eye," Wright said in a sermon Sept. 16, 2001. "We have supported state terrorism against the Palestinians and black South Africans, and now we are indignant because the stuff we have done overseas is now brought right back to our own front yards. America's chickens are coming home to roost."

WND has reportedthe church itself has been revealed to have astrongAfrican-centered and race-based philosophy.

Wright's Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago is where Obama was baptized as a Christian two decades ago. Obama even borrowing the title for one of his books, "The Audacity of Hope," from a sermon by Wright.

During the campaign, the first paragraph of the"About Us" section of the church's websitementioned the word "black" or "Africa" five times:

We are a congregation which is Unashamedly Black and Unapologetically Christian. ... Our roots in the Black religious experience and tradition are deep, lasting and permanent. We are an African people, and remain "true to our native land," the mother continent, the cradle of civilization. God has superintended our pilgrimage through the days of slavery, the days of segregation, and the long night of racism. It is God who gives us the strength and courage to continuously address injustice as a people, and as a congregation. We constantly affirm our trust in God through cultural expression of a Black worship service and ministries which address the Black Community.

On another page on the website, Wright explained that his theology was "based upon the systematized liberation theology that started in 1969 with the publication of Dr. James Cone'sbook, 'Black Power and Black Theology.'"

30/6/11 - Another Step Closer To A One World Religion: 50 U.S. Churches To Read From The Quran On Sunday

The three main pillars of the "New World Order" that the global elite want to bring about are a one world economy, a one world government and a one world religion.  A lot of attention gets paid to the development of the first two pillars, but the third pillar gets very little attention.  But the truth is that a one world religion is getting closer than ever.  "Interfaith" conferences and meetings are being held with increasing frequency all over the globe.  Major global religious leaders are urging all of us to focus on our "shared" religious traditions.  The belief that all religions are equally valid paths to the same destination is being taught in houses of worship and at religious institutions all over the globe.  This "interfaith movement" is being promoted by NGOs, "charitable foundations" and top politicians and it is being backed by big money all over the planet.

Now some U.S. churches are trying to take things to another level.  On June 26th, the National Cathedral in Washington D.C. and approximately 50 other churches in 26 U.S. states will publicly read from the Quran during their Sunday worship services.

This is all part of an interfaith project being promoted by the Interfaith Alliance and Human Rights First.  The theme of this Sunday is "Faith Shared: Uniting in Prayer and Understanding", and the goal is apparently to show how much Christian churches in the United States respect Islam.

The following are some of the other prominent U.S. churches that will be doing Quran readings this Sunday....

*Christ Church in New York City

*All Saints Church in Pasadena, California

*Park Hill Congregational in Denver

*Hillview United Methodist in Boise, Idaho

*First United Lutheran in San Francisco

*St. Elizabeth's Episcopal Church in Honolulu

In all, churches in 26 U.S. states will be participating.

But these Quran readings are just supposed to be the beginning of something bigger.  The following is from a description of the Quran reading project on the website of Human Rights First....

At its core, this project will bring together Christian, Jewish and Muslim clergy to read from and hear from each other’s sacred texts. In doing so, they will serve as a model for respect and cooperation and create a concrete opportunity to build and strengthen working ties between and among faith communities moving forward.

The truth is that all Americans have the freedom to read the Quran whenever they want.  But should Christian churches be reading from it during Sunday worship and should they be seeking to "build and strengthen working ties" with Islamic groups that are seeking to promote the spread of another religion?

Obviously, many Christian leaders are not pleased with this development.  Worldview Weekend President Brannon Howse recently made the following comment regarding the reading of the Quran in U.S. churches....

"They have denied the exclusivity of Jesus Christ. They have denied the inerrancy of Scripture; they've denied the inspiration of Scripture."

Sadly, this is not a new trend.  The truth is that the "interfaith movement" has been building momentum for decades and some of the most prominent religious leaders in the world are involved.

For example, the following excerpt from a CNS article talks about a huge "interfaith event" hosted by the Pope when he visited Washington D.C. in 2008....

When Pope Benedict XVI comes to the Pope John Paul II Cultural Center in Washington for an early-evening interfaith meeting April 17 with Buddhists, Hindus, Jews, Muslims and representatives of other religions, space will be at a premium.

Many top U.S. Christian leaders have been very involved in the "interfaith movement" as well.

For example, Brian McLaren, one of the top leaders of the emerging church movement, actually celebrated Ramadan back in 2009.

Rick Warren, a member of the Council on Foreign Relations, has been a guest speaker at the national conference of the Islamic Society of North America.

Some time ago, a virtual "who's who" of evangelical Christian leaders that included Rick Warren, Robert Schuller, Brian McLaren, Richard Cizik and Bill Hybels all signed a letter to the Islamic community that was entitled "Loving God And Neighbor Together".  This letter made it abundantly clear that these Christians leaders consider Allah and the Christian God to be the same entity.

Let's take a quick look at a couple of quotes from the letter....

Before we “shake your hand” in responding to your letter, we ask forgiveness of the All-Merciful One

In Islam, "the All-Merciful One" is one of the key names for Allah.

So in this letter the Christian leaders were praying to Allah and were asking for his forgiveness and were acknowledging that he is God.

Here is another quote from the letter....

If we fail to make every effort to make peace and come together in harmony you correctly remind us that “our eternal souls” are at stake as well.

Very strangely, in the letter the Christian leaders claim that their "eternal souls" are at stake if they do not make every effort to "come together in harmony" with the Islamic community.

Once again, people in America are free to believe whatever they want, but Christian leaders should not be trying to develop religious ties with Islam.

The truth is that Jesus would not have wanted anything to do with this one world religion that the New World Order is trying to bring in.

In John 14:6, Jesus made the following statement.....

I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

You would think that would be so clear that no Christian leader would ever be able to misunderstand it.

In fact, the very first two of the Ten Commandments are about how no other gods should ever be worshipped except for the one true God.  In Exodus 20:3-6 it says the following....

Thou shalt have no other gods before me. Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.

But today everybody wants to be "politically correct".

That is especially true of religious leaders.

But this is exactly what the global elite want.  They want everyone herded into one giant "global religion" that they will be able to take charge of and control.

Of course once the global religion is established, they won't have much use for the real Jesus Christ or for the Bible.

Even if you are not a Christian, you should be deeply troubled by these developments.

Yesterday, I wrote about Agenda 21 and the radical population control agenda of the global elite.  The reality is that they want to use "climate change" and environmentalism as social engineering tools in order to reconstruct society in the way that they see fit.

I have also previously written about the globalization of the world economy.  The global elite eventually want to merge us all into a one world economic system that they will totally dominate.

So even if you are not of any faith, you should be alarmed when you see attempts being made to merge the major religions of the world into one global faith.

24/6/11 - "The Gospel Created In Hell" - The Apostasy Is Here!

"The Gospel Created In Hell"

The Apostasy Is Here!

A hideous deceptive heresy is sweeping Evangelical churches in America.  Instead of emphasizing the fallen nature of man, sin, repentance, the Cross of Christ, salvation, Heaven and Hell, the move is to be sensitive to the needs, wants and desires of people.  A "feel good gospel" has replaced the precious Gospel of Jesus Christ.  It is humanism in its most insidious form. 

Paul warned Timothy of this coming Apostasy, "Now the Spirit speaks expressly, that in the latter times some shall fall away from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of devils." (1 Timothy 4:1).  Paul prophesied, "For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts (seeker friendly) they shall heap to themselves teachers having itching ears (hearing what they want to hear).  They shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned into fables." (2 Timothy 4: 3-5). 


Pastor David Wilkerson, the prophet to America, confronted this heresy head-on.  May God raise up more like this bold saint of God.

24/6/11 - WARNING! THE APOSTATE CHURCH IS HERE!

WARNING! THE APOSTATE CHURCH IS HERE!

We are at the END of the End Times!  Biblical prophecy is being fulfilled daily.  Jesus warned us in Matthew 24 "And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many ...." (verse 11). "For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect" (verse 24).  He further warned, "Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ, and shall deceive many ...." (Matthew 24:4,5).

The Apostle Paul echoed a similar warning in referring to the last days: "Let no man deceive you by any means." A time of deception is coming, says Paul, so take care.  The Great Lie reveals that the spiritual deception to which Christ referred, though it will of course involve rank unbelievers following false Christs and false prophets, will and has infected the professing church, it will involve a great "falling away," or apostasy: "for that day [of the Lord] shall not come except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin [Antichrist] be revealed, the son of perdition" (2 Thessalonians 2:3).

This video confronts the "feel good" "seeker friendly"heresy that is flooding the church.  Prophecy IS being fulfilled! A word of encouragement - even though apostasy is rampant, God WILL have a harvest in this last hour.  There WILL be one last outpouring of His Spirit!  The Gospel WILL be preached unto ALL nations and THEN the end will come!  Matthew 24:14 "And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come."

Apostasy and a move of God at the same time?  Yes, in every awakening there was a "falling away" or apostasy.  Even during Jesus ministry on earth, hundreds of disciples left Him in one day because they could not endure His teaching.  So it will be in this last hour.  

19/6/11 - The Dark Side of the Purpose Driven Church

The Dark Side of the Purpose Driven Church
Pastor Hutchings, was the member of a church that went from a mission in 1975 to the number two Baptist Church in Oklahoma in 2004, where they adopted, through a new pastor, the Purpose Driven Church format!

The author of this book, President of Southwest Radio Church Ministries, was the member of a church that went from a mission in 1975 to the number two Baptist Church in Oklahoma in 2004.  In 2004 his church adopted, through a new pastor, the Purpose Driven Church format.

 What happened at Pastor Hutchings’ church has also happened to thousands of churches across the nation in changing from a traditional and fundamental doctrinal position to a contemporary and informal style of Purpose Driven Church service.

 Dr. Rick Warren works on the principle to attract the non-churched and non-Christians by a worship setting in which they would feel “comfortable”.   This would mean removing Christian traditional emblems like the cross, contemporary music, and informing the “old pillars” they could go if they did not approve.

 Dr. Warren has stated that he has “trained” or retrained 600,000 pastors in how to establish Purpose Driven Churches, which in many cases means to take over already established churches.

  As documented in this book, Dr. Warren has said that the five basic fundamentals of the Christian faith are too narrow, that fundamentalists are the biggest enemies we have, and we need to bring the Protestants, Catholics, Muslims, and all religions together to stop wars, heal the sick, and feed the hungry.

 Dr. Warren has ignored the advice of men like Charles Spurgeon who warned, “The devil’s biggest lie is that we can win souls with entertainment”.  One of the problems facing churches that have gone Purpose Driven is that when the “old pillars” left, the remaining younger attendance provides little or no financial support and the church ministry suffers or ends.

 A tract based on chapter 12 of this book, “Is Your Church Going Purpose Driven, How Can You Tell”, has been disseminated worldwide.

 Every church member, and especially pastors, should read about the other side of the Purpose Driven Church controversy presented in this book.

 Brother Hutchings says that the most frequent question they get from their nationwide listenership is, “Where can I find a good church.”
