TERROR THREAT PUTS COMMUNITY ON ALERT April 21, 2006 (Edited by
DCB) "WASHINGTON — Following a threat this week by Palestinian
militants to target ‘Zionists outside Palestine,’ a national Jewish
community terrorism alert system has been activated to determine
whether Jewish institutions should take extra security precautions."
"The Palestinian threat was issued Monday, shortly before a suicide
bombing in Tel Aviv that left nine people dead and more than 60
wounded. The bombing, Israel's deadliest terrorist incident since
August 2004, was attributed to Islamic Jihad, a radical group with
links to Iran."
Editor’s Comment: Jeremiah 1:19 "And they
shall fight against thee; but they shall not prevail against thee;
for I am with thee, saith the LORD, to deliver thee."

"A California-based immigration reform activist says Mexico is being
hypocritical in demanding that the United States bestow special
rights upon illegal Mexican immigrants while it treats its own
illegal alien population harshly. While illegal immigrants in the
U.S. have been allowed to unfurl the Mexican flag and demand rights
during recent demonstrations, hundreds of thousands of Central
Americans who are in Mexico illegally suffer mostly in silence. In
fact, Mexican authorities recently shot and killed a man they
thought looked like an illegal alien." The Mexican government
doesn’t "…offer people all sorts of government benefits and
services. They're not giving college tuition to the children of
illegal aliens in Mexico. They're not giving them driver's
licenses."
Agape Press 25 April 2006 RICK WARREN'S
PRESENCE AT 'AZUSA STREET' QUESTIONED (Edited by DCB) Purpose
Driven author, Rick Warren, was a speaker at "the Azusa Street
Centennial". This meeting drew thousand to celebrate "the 100th
anniversary of the ‘Azusa Street Revival,’ which is considered the
start of the modern Pentecostal/Charismatic movement." Others
speaking at the event with Warren were "Benny Hinn, T.D. Jakes,
Kenneth Copeland, and Creflo Dollar."
Editor’s Comment: Amos 3: 2 "Can two walk
together, except they be agreed?" Sadly many independent Baptists
are following like sheep to the slaughter.

– "A self-described pro-choice atheist and rationalist set out to
prove that abortion does not have any psychological consequences. He
found the opposite, and the results were so profound that they
cannot be ignored in the scientific field or the political arena.
Professor David Fergusson, New Zealand researcher at Christchurch
School of Medicine and Health, said, ‘[F]rom a personal point of
view, I would have rather seen the results come out the other way --
but they didn't. And as a scientist you have to report the facts,
not what you'd like to report.’ Fergusson and his colleagues were
surprised by the study that followed 500 women from birth to age 25
and revealed that abortive women were one-and-a-half times more
likely to suffer mental illness. ‘Those having an abortion had
elevated rates of subsequent mental health problems, including
depression, anxiety, suicidal behaviors and substance use
disorders,’ according to the research published in the Journal of
Child Psychiatry and Psychology." It is not surprising that
"Numerous journals refused to publish the research" but as Professor
Fergusson said "it would be ‘scientifically irresponsible’ to
overlook the findings."
Editor’s Comment: The journals that will not
publish this research are described in Jeremiah 9:5 "And they will
deceive every one his neighbour, and will not speak the truth: they
have taught their tongue to speak lies…"
CREATION March-May 2006 Vol. 28 No. 2
pages 39, 40 "As long as evolution remains the reigning paradigm of
Earth history, we must bear in mind that teaching about origins will
involve propaganda. One educator recently confessed; ‘And I use that
trust to effectively brainwash them… our teaching methods are
primarily those of propaganda. We appeal- without demonstration-to
evidence that supports our position. We only introduce arguments and
evidence that supports the currently accepted theories and omit or
gloss over any evidence to the contrary.’"
Editor’s Comment: 2Timothy 3:8 "…so do
these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds…" Proverbs 19:5 "A
false witness shall not be unpunished, and he that speaketh lies
shall not escape."

"An Australian childcare advocate is changing his tune following a
negative study on the impact of daycare. Australian psychologist
Steve Biddulph, a former advocate of daycare and other childcare
options, conducted a study, which revealed that daycare slows the
development of the brain in young children. Denise Kanter of the
Morningstar Education Network says the psychologist found from his
own neurobiological research evidence that ‘clearly -- in his words
-- suggests that at least during the first two years of life, the
brain develops ... at its optimum when it's [receiving] one-to-one
care with a loving caretaker, such as a mother, father, or
grandparent.’" "Unfortunately" says Kanter, "the public has been
hearing that daycare is okay for the last 30 years, and the tide of
public opinion is often difficult to turn."
Editor’s Comment: The push for childcare
is all about taking control over the family unit. This is from the
11 June 2005 socialist People’s Weekly World http://www.pww.org/article/view/7210/1/273/
SOCIALISM, WOMEN AND GIRLS "Child care, which affects mainly women,
should be free and available at work and school so that mothers can
be near their children and still carry on with their lives. Public
funding should also be available for people who choose to have
someone come into the home to help care for children." Government
control from the cradle to the grave! http://patriotpost.us/current/
In the good ole USA "Millions of illegal aliens are preparing for a
"May Day" strike to coincide with the Communist's International
Workers' Day."
Because of Calvary,
