The glorious Son - the Fountain of life For my people have committed two evils; they have forsaken Me the fountain of living waters,
and hewed them out cisterns, broken cisterns, that can hold no water.(Jer.2.13)
Scenes of the snare of syncretistic decadence from Soul Survivor 2019 and the Big Church Day Out 2019.
Christians should never worship in the dark! (Acts 20.8) The Lord seeks worship in Spirit and Truth (Jn.4.23) not a performance of fleshliness and worldly sleaze - 'Christian' Baal worship 2019 'God is greatly to be feared in the assembly of the holy, and to be held in deep awe by all them that are about Him.' Ps.89.7
'If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God defile; for the temple of God is holy, which temple you are.' 1 Cor.3.17 Depravity in the Name of Christ
John Piper's promotion of nightclub churches (archive) - sadly this carnality is now wickedly promulgated in London by Co-Mission. Revive 2019
'Wherefore come out from among them, and be separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you.' (2 Cor.6.17) For churches struggling with involvement with this pernicious influence, words of reproof and comfort here: Rev.2.12-29.
Gog & Ukraine - it looks very likely tonight (18/2/22) that Ukraine will be invaded by Putin's massive army. Josephus, the Jewish historian, identified Scythia with Magog, roughly equal to E Ukraine and Western Russia on our maps. This may well eventually trigger the crucial events described in Rev.20 and Ezek.38 (no they are notseparate events as some unwisely hold).
It is troubling that Care Sri Lanka's recent investigation into the very serious allegations against Selvarajah Jeyakanth from multiple serving elders (see more below) amounted to a brief open air meeting in a public place with the detractors, at the last minute, which was interrupted by rain, and focused largely, according to the parties, just on one recent case of adultery. This matter should have prompted serious incident reports to the Charity Commission. Instead this looks like very much another whitewash. Here is the report of the pastors on what they saw and heard in Tamil and in broken English. Background is here and here.
Maajid Nawaz is sacked from LBC for highlighting carefully documented argument about vaccine mandates. (Paywall). Look out, something sinister is brewing in this. I predict (20/2/22) the UK government will soon backtrack on its current plan to discard covid passes, (I do not of course claim to be a prophet!). The cabinet don't realise the full agenda, nor is it set by them. This is about data control not healthcare.
Another illuminating production through CMi (though Back2Genesis have produced it). Inadvertently shows just how irrational, obscurantist and anti-scientific neo-Darwinism and the nest of vipers (esp so called 'humanism') that rest upon it have become. Creationists have the future on their side.
If you haven't yet responded to the Government's consultation on banning repentance from sodomy gay conversion therapy, you had better get your skates on. But don't be surprised if they let their Herodic tendencies get away with them anyway....
PWMI should disown this serious error. Ordained sacrifices after Calvary, after the destruction of the Second Temple are a blasphemous denial of the completeness of Messiah's work, not a blessing or a means of cleansing.
Selvarajah Jeyakanth has now been excommunicated from Amyand Park Chapel. He has also now resigned from Thampalagamam Church, at the church's insistence (this is disputed in his latest prayer letter, we will shortly know the mind of the church, reportedly over 200 members have left during recent discord). The reasons have not yet been made public, but here are the allegations of six pastors who formerly worked with Jeyakanth, which precipitated this. Why is this man still receiving enormous funds for his work, largely sequestered in his own and his family or friends' names, in property and vehicle registrations, whilst these allegations remain unanswered? They corroborate and compound many correlated allegations and concerns raised for well over a decade, and some even more serious, by many senior serving pastors in and outside Sri Lanka, for which many have appealed repeatedly for thorough, objective investigation. This appears to amount to a serious breach of due diligence, which has been repeatedly brought to the charities' attention. We await a thorough and objective examination of these charges. We believe a great deal of damage has been done and continues to be done to the Lord's Name in Sri Lanka by this man with these monies. A recent article in the Colombo Telegraph, which I have had nothing to do with, indicates very widespread concern about his ministry and character. Polite, steely & accurate replies to defamatory comments there have not been uploaded and the comment section since withdrawn. (I retain proof for these claims).
Another, more pointed and less prurient article from the CT and in the local Daily Mirror challenges the LEFC to come clean over yet more serious allegations of corruption.
Here is the redacted verbatim report from a Sri Lankan contact to indicate where Reformed Baptist charity contributions have been going for a decade, 'Above information I received from a [brother] *** (keep the name secret) who worked in the Trincomlee [sic] police for many years... He met one of the CID (his close friend) and got the information. he honestly admitted he too was bribed for 100,000 SLR while revealed that JK would have paid 600,000 SLR altogether to cover up this case where they changed the story that girl herself voluntarily involved in this abuse'
Worship and adore the Architect of this cathedral - or live forever in sightless ingratitude!
A tiny glimpse of the breathtaking magic garden that is you! (Focus on a few better understood aspects of white cell adhesion and migration out of blood vessels) Did I really hear you say God doesn't care or notice your sorrows? His Word generated & sustains this marvel entirely and continuously (Col.1.16-7)

'On Surtsey, only a few months sufficed for a landscape to be created which was so varied and mature that it was almost beyond belief.'
Christian Antisemitism - the spirit level of our time 'Let them all be confounded and turned back that hate Zion

'Which is the glory of all lands' Ezek. 20. 6,15 An obscure question to our eminent forebears, as their confusion testifies, now an inescapable issue of white hot relevance.
Famous 'Christian Zionists' writings - though they would not recognise the term for one who believes Biblical prophecy predicts a real Jewish return to Israel at the end of the Age. C.H.Spurgeon, J.C.Ryle, Robert M. M'Cheyne and Horatius Bonar. (Courtesy CWi) Many many others held an identical position.
'We look forward, then, for these two things. I am not going to theorize upon which of them will come first whether they shall be restored first, and converted afterwards or converted first and then restored. They are to be restored and they are to be converted, too.'

Lord Shaftesbury, Edward Bickersteth, J.C. Ryle, Murray M'Cheyne, John Rippon, Benjamin Keach, Thomas Sibbes, John Gill and Andrew Bonar and an army of other reformed teachers' positions were very similar, some pre-mill, many post-mill, other unpersuaded of literal millennium (like this author) - see Iain Murray's the Puritan Hope for more names and quotes.
