20 Years!

BTM’s Anniversary Year

BTM has been ministering for 20 years this year! Those with acid in their stomachs predicted that we would be finished within months. Others continue to wish doom upon us. But, we are still here, and will continue to minister unless, and if, God says we should not.

Amazingly, we continue despite a chronic shortage of income and thank God that He has given myself and James Waddell private income enough to pay for costs. On the other hand, a few good friends donate every year (thank you!). Others support us with their friendship and prayers. We thank God for them all!

We began late in 1985, but were then known as the Christian Research Institute. This clashed with the USA group of the same name, so we decided to change. The newer name matched our aims exactly.

The opening articles in our first publications were a ‘blockbuster’ for we gave the findings of three years research into the then new AIDS disease…resulting in my being sacked from my post as a college health lecturer and the promised post as director of research, because of complaints from homosexuals (for telling the truth)!

For the next five years I found my lecturing jobs decreasing rapidly and so had to find other work. It was not until 1990 that I discovered an unsavoury truth – that one I called my friend had completely destroyed my college career by treacherously sending out bad references to everyone I had ever applied to! I had asked him if I could use his name as a referee (“Yes – you’re my friend!”) – but for five years he was a dire foe, and I never knew it.

Even so, the ministry has flourished and though not wealthy, BTM has growing influence in the minds and hearts of Bible-loving Christians. Others refer to our website as ‘hot’ and ‘major’, and this is all by God’s good grace.

On a number of occasions I have personally wanted to give it all up. But, God reminds me of what I am and why I do it – I am a minister called by God to do His will. It is not my job to provide numbers or worldly ‘success’. Over the years we have retained some friends, though, as with most ministries, those who stay with us usually fluctuate in number. (Have some today been with us since the start? I don’t know).

Whatever the course of the past 20 years I know this – God called me to this ministry and He has not yet finished with me. If He does, I will finish.

Until that time, I will remain a watchman, whether or not sleeping Christians behind the city walls throw boots at me for shouting a warning! God bless you all!

The Jerry Springer Opera

This filth was broadcast by BBC 2 in the UK in January, despite over 30,000 protests beforehand. I personally wrote to every BBC director.

It contained more vile swear words of the worst kind, ever to be broadcast before, and was obviously and deliberately blasphemous.

I reminded the directors that the advice to ‘just switch off’ was not good enough, for my licence fee helped to maintain the BBC and its foolish directors and producers.

This means that the BBC should listen to comments and complaints and not act like spoilt children who are intent on blurting out all their new swear words!

Over Christmas a number of programmes were aired decrying Christian teaching. This was totally eclipsed by the airing of a show so vile as to be blasphemous. We are all able to speak freely – but the play was nothing but unadulterated filth, a despicable pretence to ‘art’, a scorning of the term. Cursing and making a mockery of God is not art – it is just wickedness aired to shock, using a story-line that deliberately rides rough-shod over the truth.

Even so, our complaint should not be based on these things, but on one simple fact – it offends God and blasphemes His name. What it actually says and does is not really the point. We are to speak out against such evil at any time, regardless of outcome or scoffing by others.

That the author of the ‘play’ is an unbeliever is not the point either – the point is that his wicked play is the fruit of a godless society. It is a society that will silence Christian freedom of speech, very soon, as we have warned many times. Beware, friends, for the time is short.

Tsunami Millions?

It is true that we should help those who are devastated by disaster (so long as it is not the result of God’s judgement). But, what interests me about the recent Tsunami is the way that Tony Blair can find ‘hundreds of millions’ of pounds to give away to help.

He will not release the same amounts to help UK citizens in need, such as the elderly or the chronically infirm or poor. Yet, suddenly, he can find this hidden treasure.

Of course, it is providing him and his cronies with wonderful pensions when they retire and with hefty incomes when they work! What separates Blair from world despots? You tell me, for I cannot see any real difference!

Quaker Anger

People don’t think of Quakers as showing anger…but they do, and sometimes in a very hostile manner! A while ago I told you that a Quaker website had been set-up specifically to oppose me personally (rather an extravagant thing to do, I thought), because the author of the site believes I have done-down Quakers.

Yet, I have told numerous Quakers that my book on the subject is based solely on Quaker publications with their HQ in London. And I have said, in writing, that there are other Quaker factions who do not believe the same things.

But they continue to object! Just a week or so ago I received an email from a very angry Quaker leader (who had written most of the content on the ‘anti-Napier’ website), who accused me of lying – he claimed I had said (in The Beacon) that he had read my book, but he had not, so I was a liar! I had said nothing of the sort and, when I pointed this out and advised him to read the article again, the man apologised, to his credit.

However, one thing still remains the same – ‘evangelical’ Quakers, without exception, tell me that God saves everyone. They believe in universal salvation/salvation available to anyone who chooses Christ, and that is Arminian heresy. Hence, my basic charge – that Quakerism is an enemy of God – remains firm and will not be retracted. Really, it does not matter which faction of Quakerism we are looking at – all are equally wrong.

I know that Christian ministries who belong to the Evangelical Alliance (for example) are themselves Arminian, and they accept Arminianism as just another form of Christianity!! I find this unbelievable. Where is their theological credibility? Arminianism preaches the exact opposite to the Gospel, so how can any Christian uphold it?

There needs to be far more realism in the witness of all Believers, and more guts in opposing cults and error-promoters! It is a fact that some Christian ministries refuse to say much about certain cults that are ‘close’ to Christian, for fear of causing waves. (Do they not understand that ‘almost a Christian’ is the same as ‘not a Christian’?).

May the Lord help us all to be tougher than we are now, otherwise ministries will degenerate as we fail to take note of clues that often precede a full-blown wave of deception. In coming days we will need men of steel, not spineless men-pleasers.

Faith That is No Faith

I haven’t got a clue as to what Dr Rowan Williams’ ‘faith’ consists of! Do you? I seem to remember, some time ago, relating to readers the sad story of two elderly ladies. My then pastor pointed me out to them, as they wanted to ask a question. It was about the date of Christmas.

I advised them, amiably and with ordinary tone, that Jesus was not born on December 25th, but either in spring or late Autumn. With a look of obvious shock, they shook their heads and told me that I had just ‘destroyed’ their faith. They walked out and were never seen again!

Rowan seems to have a similar non-faith. After the Tsunami struck Asia, he went on record (unfortunately) as saying that his faith was severely shaken by the tragedy. What a picture to give to worldwide observers!

Why should his faith have been shaken? Does he not know the prophecies in scripture that speak of these things? Is his inward belief so weak that this awful act of the elements is enough to remove God from his heart?

For goodness sake, why don’t Anglicans get rid of weak and ineffective pseudo-Christians, and, instead, replace them with truth-tellers and men of God?

Genesis 1

We had an email recently from a man who asked if we taught that belief in six-day creation was essential to salvation. We assured him that we did not.

He said that atheists use our site (something I was already aware of) as a ‘proof text’ that shows how Christians are so scared of God that they believe in a literal creation, just in case they lose their salvation (eh??)! Says a lot about how atheists haven’t got a clue about how to perceive Christians, or even how to read our web-site!!

What we DO say is this – Genesis 1 is fully literal. The texts themselves present a literal six-day creation. Of course, atheists guffaw (the way one does when pretending to laugh loudly and naturally) and scoff. But so what? It does not alter anything!

They laugh at our scriptural teachings and then go on to present their own theories as truth. Then it is our turn to scoff, for there are no proofs whatever for evolution (that is, the change from one species to another, or, long periods of time used to effect it). None at all. At least, not scientifically. Yet, these guffaw-ers, laughing out loud in their huddles, fail to see that what they are offering as an alternative is just a weak and silly hypothesis!!

Ple-e-ease, Mr Guffaw-er, take a long look at your own ideas before laughing inanely at those of us who believe in Creation (including respected scientists).

Any Christian who believes in evolution is badly taught and his or her faith is inept because of it. As has already been said, the whole of Genesis 1 is literal in meaning, and there is no room whatever for the pretensions of pseudo-scientists and unbelievers.

I have been told that we ought to ‘make allowances’ and try to show these folk why they are wrong. But, just how much time do people think we have? Eternity? No amount of explanation will make unbelievers stop scoffing or make them understand what they refuse to accept! Only God can change their sinful hearts. We will leave arguments about science to the physical scientists.

Our job is to teach what scripture says. We can say that evolutionists are playing at being scientists. We can say that Christians who believe them are sadly failing in their faith. We can even drive ten trucks through some of the arguments put forward by these folk. But that’s it – after that they must stew in their own primordial soup.

We know full-well how atheists take our teachings. But, we are also men of faith and we believe God implicitly. If He says, as He does, that He made everything in six literal days, then that is what we believe happened. We don’t care how unbelievers will take it. We don’t care that they laugh. We don’t care that they use our site as a ‘proof text’…indeed, it is rather a compliment!

So, that’s it. We teach a literal six-day creation, because that is what is taught in scripture. Take it or leave it. Christians who have a problem with this should take another look at their faith and at Genesis 1, because otherwise they will stumble along without true knowledge. (If you want a copy of our study of Genesis 1, just ask).

A federal judge recently ruled that schools in Atlanta, USA, must remove evolution disclaimer notices in their science books that say “Evolution is a theory not a fact, regarding the origin of human beings.” For all their blusterings, evolutionists haven’t got the guts to let people think for themselves! So, they use law to get people to accept the weak hypothesis known as ‘evolution’.

A Disaster Won’t Do It!

In response to the awful tsunami, numerous evangelical denominations are seeking ‘prayer for unity’. But this is the wrong way around!

It is not prayers for unity that we need, but genuine repentance, and obedience to the truth already given to us by God in His word!

On many occasions churches pray for this or that blessing, when, all along, the blessings are not received because of sin and lack of repentance. When we obey God’s word, He will bless us. When we obey His conditions for unity, we will see unity.

Love is not enough – there must also be truth! Without truth love is dead, and without love, truth is dead. Both must exist at the same time. So, that let’s out almost all our churches today! How many churches actually believe in God, let alone put His word into practice? Hardly any.

So, forget prayers for unity. Obey God instead, and then maybe we will see something happening. Only in truth can churches be unified. Prayers are often a substitute for one’s personal action and responsibility. Don’t be misled.

Asylum

At last the Tories in the UK plan to greatly reduce acceptance of asylum seekers. (For the sake of MI5 and police who we know monitor this site, let me say again – we are not against genuine asylum seekers, and we have no racial motive behind what we say. Our argument applies to all races. We simple cannot keep taking in foreigners, especially if they come here expecting state benefits). As the government has already admitted – over 90% of all seekers are bogus!

As for creeds – we are against incoming Muslim extremists. It is about time that the government of this country understood the nature of Islam. True Islamists are those who are extreme. That is what we find in the Koran. We must be thankful that most UK Muslims are, then, liberal and not authentic. But the rest – we should keep them out. In essence the Koran is subversive in a democratic country. And authentic Muslims are certainly anti-democracy.

Note that 12 terror suspects currently kept in UK prisons (at our expense), were asylum seekers! What of the four recently returned to us by the USA? There is no smoke without fire…why should security forces pick on just those four out of thousands of Muslims in the UK?

Our ridiculous sense of fair play might mean the courts ordering the government to release the 12 who are held. They are held for a very good reason and the very nature of terrorism means that terrorists act in a very covert and treasonous way. Therefore, it may be hard to pin them down with precise legal means. But they must be kept locked up – our lives are at stake!

We must double-up on ports and airports and stop incomers at source, keep them in locked buildings and transported back out of the UK again within days, not years. If they have no papers, or are suspect, they must go, regardless of pleas and excuses. Beside, the UK is probably the farthest away from countries that might persecute people. By international law, they must apply for asylum in the nearest country to them, not the farthest!

By illegally entering the UK, then, they prove they are bogus and want entry for other reasons. Others must apply from outside the UK, so that they can be properly processed – I don’t see why we, the tax-payers, should continually pay to do the processing, or to keep people in the UK, fed, given clothing and shelter, etc., when they are bogus. It is gross negligence on the part of the Labour government (on whom I place full responsibility and blame).

As recently as January 22nd, UK police chiefs warned that the UK is being targeted by crime mobs, whose members come from abroad…mainly through the asylum system! Unlike most UK criminals, the eastern mobs use extreme violence as a matter of course, and so they are feared even by our own criminal elements. (Source: Europol).

40,000 of these criminals are in gangs already! Their activities are way and above anything attributed to groups like the Mafia, such are their extensive and violent activities. The most potent are from Albania, Turkey, Russia and China. They use violence, robbery, etc., but then quickly use the proceeds to begin legitimate businesses, so that all trace of their past is covered. This, too, will cost the UK tax-payer billions, so they say.

It must be underlined again – the problem is caused directly by our Labour government. They began this whole fiasco and have not wanted to end it. Meanwhile, we carry on paying through the nose, enabling foreign bogus entrants to mop up every penny we lose. And, in the process, they terrorise the West, steal and kill.

Feb. 6th. Tony Blair at last admitted, today, that we are right to worry about asylum! This newsletter is read on the internet by many thousands across the world and I have received a number of accusations of being ‘racist’ (??) for demanding a stop to asylum and immigration.

Today, Blair gave the same reasons for worry as I have published in this newsletter for several years! Perhaps, now, folk will start to listen?

Gay Month

The Labour government is also responsible for promoting homosexuality. Using the title ‘Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender History Month’, schools are being instructed to offer lessons in homosexuality.

Children as young as seven will be encouraged to write swear words on the blackboard, so that teachers can use them as prompters for chats about homosexual activity! And if no words are given by the kids, teachers are told to invent them, just so as they can indoctrinate pupils!

Same-sex church blessings will be re-enacted, there will be gay-orientated fashion shows, gay Valentine dinners for staff, and much more.

Kids will be given lessons in ‘Queer Celebrities’, such as the late Freddie Mercury (but will they also teach the reason for his death?). It has all been made possible through a grant given by the new Education Secretary.

I urge all Christians in the UK to protest. Bring your kids out of school until this terrible thing has gone. Even watch what happens in primary schools. This is nothing but abuse of children by the state.

Iraq and Terror

Just a short note. In my article about the late Palestinian leader, Arafat, I show that terrorists are not nationalists who want their country to be free. They are just cold-blooded killers who kill for the sake of it. They only want power. The excuses they give are only asides, not reasons. They give these excuses to cover the truth.

This is clearly shown to us in Iraq. If the terrorists really wanted freedom, all they had to do was wait until the people voted-in a free government. But no – they bomb and shoot them instead. Many are from outside Iraq. They kill not for freedom or for any reason except their own power!

Even now, commentators recklessly blame Israel for Palestinian violence, when the facts point blame toward Palestinian terrorists themselves.

Don’t become a pawn in the propaganda game – the USA is a champion of freedom, even with its many failures. Terrorists will not arise in greater force just because the USA fights them – they would do it anyway! The USA just gives them a great excuse to murder people.

Constantly, I hear groups, including Christians, who call for cessation of fighting. In effect, they blame the policemen for crime!

We cannot oppose terror with peace talks. Terrorists are immune to peace. They only see jihad written large across their own foreheads. Any peace they talk about is only a ploy, a waiting time, a breather in the midst of plans for more terror activities.

In short, you do not placate a rampaging tiger – you shoot it! Otherwise, it will turn around and rip your head off.

And remember – those terrorists who say they kill UK and USA soldiers in revenge for Iraqi’s they have beaten, are liars. They are only using this as a pretence. They don’t care about Iraqi’s, otherwise why do they kill them, in their own country? Wake up, people!

Stem Cell Research

There have been no benefits thus far to stem cell research. And guess what – almost all the cells currently used are from ‘unviable’ foetuses, including those who were aborted because of disability. (Source: K-House News).

There is no reason why such cells are used, when adult stem cells can be obtained without harming any living thing. And the results from adult cells can be dramatic…like the woman who had been paralysed for 20 years. She had an injection of new cells taken from umbilical cord blood, and she walked again!

A young girl destroyed a huge area of skull in an accident and nothing was able to replace it. Until adult stem cells were used, like a paste. It was pasted onto her head and very soon it replicated and new skull bone was made.

Four heart patients in Texas were so ill they could not even have transplants. Then, they had their own bone marrow taken and injected into their own hearts. They are now off the transplant list and are well.

And in the same state, researchers are using bone marrow stem cells to fight cancer…and the initial results are stupendous. This is where the research cash should go – not to those who want to kill off babies.

But stem cells from foetuses? Nothing! So, why use a foetus? The answer is very obvious – abortion is considered okay, and a foetus is not thought to be human! Note that President Bush is against abortion.

The Extent of Deception

A ten year old, partially-eaten grilled cheese sandwich, is for sale on eBay for a staggering $69,000!! This is because it supposedly bears an image of the Virgin Mary! It seems that Catholic deception strikes deep.

The pope prayed to Mary for peace in Iraq, during the 150th anniversary of the introduction of the Catholic dogma of the Immaculate Conception. His next book is already a sell-out – with millions of ready-made buyers, the Catholic faithful, waiting with uncritical minds, the publisher will make a fortune. All on the back of gross deception.

Rowan’s Ineptitude, Again!

A secularist playwright, Archibald MacLeish, told the world after the tsunami, that God was not good. He blames God for the disaster.

Rowan Williams, the inept archbishop of the cult known as Anglicanism, gave a typically unbiblical response in the Daily Telegraph. He said that all these random deaths make us feel outraged and helpless, and this should ‘upset a faith bound up with comfort and ready answers.’ That bit is right! Anglicanism sets out to please everyone and allows heresy to live grandly in its main parlour!

What he said was that his own faith was shaken by the tsunami and the disaster even makes God’s existence come into question.

Rowan said that the newspaper did not present his argument properly. But the newspaper said that Rowan’s arguments are so obscure and his thought processes are so hard to follow, he must take the blame for any misrepresentation. Maybe if he didn’t try to be so clever, he might say something sensible!

What is the answer to the tsunami? It is this – God made a perfect world and Man ruined it. Sin spread and the earth was cursed by God. The tsunami is, for me, the first real evidence we have had of the coming greater disasters spoken of as end-of-world signs. God warned us of this and it is happening now. He is a God of wrath to those who do not believe, and a God of love to all who are saved. Many who are saved will die in the coming disasters, no doubt, but that should not be our main concern.

China – At It Again

China has issued secret directives to destroy Christianity from amongst its people. There was a sudden wave of arrests last summer, because the government fears that the West is trying to destabilise the country through religion. Therefore, it is commanding its leaders to spread Marxism. There are said to be 30 million Protestants in China, so we can expect more oppression to come.

And in India…

15,000 people gathered to watch a Hindu teacher die. He had predicted that his soul would leave his body (death) in the morning, but when he was still alive by noon, the crowd rioted in protest! He complained that he wanted to die, but his soul refused to leave his body! This shows us that only God can remove a man’s life, not himself.

Sneaky Labour

Since 1997 the Labour government has brought in a staggering 157 ‘stealth’ taxes…that is, taxation that is not called by that name, so as to fool people! Every month a massive amount is taken from my pay, and then I pay all over again, 157 times, on just about everything you can think of. Even if you are retired, you still pay through the nose to keep this government in place.

That is why we are one of the richest countries in the world! But, those riches are not seen by us – we only provide the money, so that it can be spent on huge retirement plans for Two Jags and other cronies and to be paid out to foreign countries. And to add insult to injury, millions will be given to foreign students whilst our own pensioners cannot get hospital treatment and have to pay big fees for nursing home stays.

In this election year, we again shout loudly to all Christians – do not vote Labour in again! They have ruined our personal wealth, health gains, and handed over our sovereignty to Europe. They have allowed terrorists to enter the country and now pay for them to have housing, because the EU has stopped us from deporting them!!

How can any national government simply hand over rule to a foreign, unelected, body? I am deeply suspicious about the idea behind such moves. What is Blair and his sneaky friends up to? What are they really getting out of the deal? One thing is sure – they will come out of it with unearned wealth! They are denying the UK the right to its own rule and future in order to get something for themselves. I have never trusted Blair and I cannot stand socialism! Any study of Russian socialism will show you that these corruptions occur as part of the deal.

At the last election we warned solemnly that a vote for Labour would send us into a spiral of ungodly activity, and we were right. It had nothing to do with prophecy – just observation and reading and listening! The doom of the UK was ‘writ large’ in the skies, yet thousands of Christians voted Labour into office.

They knew Labour would take us into the EU without restraint. Yet they voted them in. They knew immigration would be unleashed like a wave, crushing the UK with responsibilities it did not want and did not need. And the position with asylum is a farce, with over 90% of all seekers being criminals or terrorists. Yet. Labour was still voted in! Look hard at Labour – Blair tells lies routinely. His government is nothing but a bully. Though elected, they think this gives them the right to hand over our country to foreigners without so much as a question.

Even so, ask serious questions of the other parties, too, for they are all starting to march to the same drum-beat! Personally, I am sick and tired of politicians doing whatever they wish, and lying constantly. I am sick of the way they openly admit to corruption and sexual depravity, as though it is a virtue!

The minister who recently spoke of being HIV positive has been treated as a hero, instead of the homosexual sinner, condemned by God, that he really is. We have become a nation of sin lovers!

Terror Supporters

Labour finances many quangos and minority support groups. And many of them support and promote terrorists. The EU says we cannot deport known terrorists, so we now have to give them free houses where they will be watched 24 hours a day.

The cost of this will again cost taxpayers millions a year!! Already, money  - now reaching into the billions, not just millions - is being siphoned from legitimate needs because of the EU laws on ‘freedom’.

Blair does not have the guts to defy the EU, so all of us (except for himself) must bear the brunt. What I am saying is on the lips of right thinking UK citizens.

But ‘human rights’ lawyers (who, of course, earn a fortune on our backs by defending terrorists) call ‘house arrest’ “chilling” and “depressing”. It is okay for them – they are seen as friends of terror, so they will not themselves be blown up or shot by extreme Islamists!!

Yes, we must ensure that the same rigid rules are not applied to anyone at random, but those who are affected are known terrorists who should not even be in the UK. They cannot be sent back, says the EU, because they are likely to be put to death. My immediate response is “Then so be it! If they are killers, they should be put to death!” The whole thing is a terrifying farce.

In many ways, it no longer matters who we vote for, because we have been stitched up by our own Labour government and are drowning under the weight of a real police-state – the EU. But, to vote Labour back in this time is to seal our doom even more. Let us get them out of office before we sink without trace!

Guantanamo Four

So four UK Muslims have been sent back to the UK amidst cries of ‘unfair’ from the usual ‘human rights’ crowd. Now, we have to put up with these miserable young men who were in Afghanistan during a war with the UK and the USA. One of them met bin Laden and all of them were trained to fight in Al Qaeda/Taliban camps. Their purpose was to kill UK soldiers…so why did the UK insist on their return? They have committed treason. They are not heroes.

To listen to their lawyers (again made rich by our taxes) you would think they were innocent men. But, why should they travel to a country that was on the verge of war – the fact of war made public many months beforehand, so they cannot hide behind ignorance – that would involve UK soldiers, unless they were there specifically to kill them?

Everyone, including Christians, should take a hard look at who they let go free, and the need to bring back the death penalty, a penalty demanded by God Himself.

Northern Ireland Two  

Everyone knows that Sinn Fein is a front for the IRA.  Yet, trying to get a name for himself as the man who brokered ‘peace’ in Northern Ireland, Blair included Sinn Fein and its ‘two’, Gerry Adams and Martin McGuinness, in the laughable ‘peace process’.

A show by the IRA of destroying its arms makes no difference, for it was responsible for the biggest bank heist ever. Now, Blair has warned the Sinn Fein Two that they will be removed from the peace process if they don’t knuckle-down. Hah!! They have never knuckled-down!!  

I know it gets monotonous of me – but the UK taxpayers are funding Adams and his terrorist side-kick for being in the UK parliament. They are getting thousands of pounds for fronting terror. When will governments learn that terrorists have no interest in democracy – they only want their own way. That is what it is all about! Ian Paisley has been right all along, but Blair ignores truth, as we know.

It has been said before: what we are seeing today – capitulation to terrorists – would never have happened in king David’s day! He would have pursued them beyond his own territories and into their homelands, with a great slaughter until all were dead!

By contrast, today’s politicians are soft and cowardly, without backbones. And many Christians, too, think that belief in Jesus Christ means to hide in fear when shot at, or to treat terrorists as brethren who may slit our throats at any time, if they so wish, because Christians are ‘supposed to be’ doormats!

Why?

A drug addict lives next door and a steady stream of fellow addicts visit. This goes on day and night and the noise leaves you distracted. The gardens are strewn with rubbish and needles. What do you do? Probably, call the police. Why, then, do you give the same addict money when he ends up on the street?

The other side of you lives a man who is increasingly drunk. He once had a good job but now he stays home ‘sick’. Occasionally you see him at his door, but he is incoherent and unshaved. When his poor wife comes home (she has to work because he doesn’t), he shouts at her all the time and destroys furniture.

When the kids come home from school, you hear them crying out, as if he is hitting them. What do you do? Probably call the social workers. Why, then, do you give the same drunk money when he ends up on the street?

There are some lovely Christians out there whose priorities are wrong. Their hearts are sound, but they help people whom God has judged and condemned. The image of people on the street somehow blurs the edges of their conscience and they help people who are in their condition because of serious sinfulness. Where in scripture are we called upon to help such people?

Yes, I am being hard-nosed. With good reason. We should not help people whom God has judged. The Cain’s of this world have been cast out to be vagabonds. They are there for a reason – God has withdrawn His help and benefits.

Yes, there are a very few who have been forced onto the streets by unusual and pressing circumstances – but they don’t beg and don’t continue to take drugs or alcohol, they try their very best to get back to normality.

God demands that a man repents and turns to Him before He helps them. Why, then, do you help unrepentant men and women just because they are on the street? They continue their lives of sin and your money keeps them there. By all means be generous (to the right people), but don’t be fools.

More Labour Folly

The government has now set up a web-site especially for gypsies, so that they can learn all about planning laws! From this, they can search for loop-holes and exploit them.

Already, gypsies (no – tinkers…the government does not appear to know the difference) are flouting the law and setting up illegal sites, some containing hundreds of families that devastate localities with filth, bad language, criminal activities and violence. All of this help is given free, when local people have to spend fortunes just to get rid of illegal caravans!

The minister responsible for this, misled parliament. She categorically denied that the (Labour!) government gave any help to travellers, when, all along, this help-line was on offer! I am sure that the woman in Northumberland whose home has been burgled no less than 200 times since tinkers moved next door, will be very pleased!

Recent research also shows that the government is responsible for the fact that many married couples, both working full-time, earn just £1 more than a single mother who could not be bothered to get married and who has never worked in her life!

The same government is also responsible for keeping in relative luxury, the young man who has seven children by four different mothers and intends to keep having them – all paid for by social benefits, which also keep him though he does not intend to ever work. He receives a staggering £740 a week in honour of his blatant sins and lack of conscience!!

We are supporting people because they have acted sinfully, and who live on the backs of everybody else! You will not find such a scenario in scripture!

Meanwhile, as we continue to pay out unimaginable amounts to asylum seekers, tinkers, and unmarried people with kids, pensions are being cut. Not a bad deal, eh?

There is also the question of paying out massive figures to African countries by cancelling their debts. I say this without qualm, for we are thus supporting despots and guerrillas. Yes, ordinary people are caught in between – but it is their country and they ought to take back control.

I would feel much better about it if we gave actual help to those who need it – agricultural know-how, equipment, etc. But to just cancel debts is foolish…and it all comes from – yes, you’ve guessed it – our taxes!

The government gives away billions to everyone else, and then stops vital surgical operations and help for the most needy in our own country!

This year we will have the opportunity to vote-out Labour. Don’t put up with another four years of socialism! (If you are unsure, please take the trouble to read what socialism really means, especially for Christianity and its values).

Oh yes, and if you have cancer, take note that the waiting list for treatment is now longer than it was some years ago. The huge sum allotted to cancer services is swallowed up not by treatments, or on specialist staff, but by ordinary clerks!

Drugs, beds, equipment, doctors and nurses, all go by the board, as clerks are employed in their hundreds to administer the system!

Specialist sets of equipment remain in their boxes, nurses and doctors cannot be employed, and beds remain empty. In the past, matrons ran hospitals on their own, and there were almost no clerks. So, why need them now? Remember – it is YOUR money!

Witchcraft is Real

60 years ago a woman in Portsmouth, UK, was imprisoned for witchcraft (the details are not important). She was what is now called a clairvoyant. Her jailing was linked with the war and secrecy, but the point is, she was a witch.

Despite all manner of brutish and evil activities that got rid of witches in history, the need to prohibit witchcraft remains, just as it did at the time of king David.

Yet, even today, this woman has now had a film made about her life, and supporters are trying to clear her name. This says much for the UK and its rapidly diminishing sense of what is right and holy.

We are told that her prosecution for witchcraft was made on technical grounds, just to imprison her. That may be so, but her activities were those of a witch, nevertheless.

Legal Dirty Tricks

In an effort to pacify Muslims, our government (again!) is in the process of prosecuting seven hapless paratroopers who are accused of murdering an Iraqi by shooting him needlessly in a time of uprising. It turns out that the case should not have been brought in the first place…lawyers admit there is no evidence. Why, then, are these poor soldiers being victimised?

There was no identity parade. The body was taken away and buried quickly, and the family refuse to have it examined! The seven claim that the incident never took place. Am I the only one to think it is all rather suspicious?

This is an example of being ‘PC’ – why does our government think that a show-trial to pacify a tiger will stop its wild behaviour? Islam is a religion with a sting in its tail. It’s about time our government got real about it! All governments must have the moral backbone to stand up to Islam, which always makes demands for an Islamic state when there are enough Muslims to bring weight behind the demands. The tiger is ready to pounce!
