"I don't know"

He's on TV all around the world preaching but what does he believe? Larry King puts him on the spot but watch how he dodges the questions and count how many times he says "I don't know".


"I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting him who called you in the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel— not that there is another one, but there are some who trouble you and want to distort the gospel of Christ. But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be accursed." Galatians 1:6-8.

I believe
the clip below demonstrates how today 'a different gospel' is being propagated. We can only share in the apostle's astonishment when he exclaims "O foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you?" Galatians 3:1

"Jesus said to him, “I am
the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." John 14:6


For an excellent critic on this and a passionate call for men to come forward who know the truth and are willing to proclaim it, make sure you download and listen to Steve Lawson's message at the 2009 Shepherds' Conference (General session 8). It's the best message I have heard this year! Click here for an outline of the message

Irish night in France


The Herons who were with (Irish) Baptist Missions are now pastoring the Baptist Church in Colmar, France. As it is only 50 minutes away and we heard that they were having a special outreach evening with an Irish band – we decided it was time we went along.It was so good to hear the music, see the images of the emerald isle, hear the (Northern) Irish accents and to see the Herons in their new ministry. In fact I was pleased to find out that most of the guys in the band are actually Irish baptists! The church was well filled and Andrew told me that there was also a good number of visitors.The band continues to play throughout France and Switzerland this week. Pray for them that through their music and the presentation of the Gospel in word and song, that people will become aware of their spiritual state and their need of the Saviour.

Come, People of the Risen King

JYC training course in Karlsruhe, Germany

Sword drill demo
Stefan (local CEF worker) teaching the class on starting a JYC
It was a joy to help out Stefan and to teach the 8 students who had traveled from across Southern Germany and from as far as Winterthur in Switzerland. The students have 2 more weekends when they will come together for more classes. Pray for them that they will learn much and that as a result new JYC's will start in Germany and Switzerland.
