Praise the Lord Everyone,

I must give you all a haughty thanks for receiving our mails, thanks for your

encouragements, letters and basically your support. We really appreciate it;

the site now 24,694 hits since July 1, thanks to you.

Today’s newsletter might not be for everyone, for some of us would rather turn

a blind eye to the naked truth rather than realize it’s there and speak about

it as it is. But first, one short testimony from the last letter on justification,

which 'kind of' sum up why it’s not being taught in our churches and why I

think everyone should read this book’s chapter on justification:

 “…It is things like this that makes me happy...speaking about your mail. I

back you up one hundred percent and so do the scriptures. Jesus said in one

of his text, "none that the father has given me have I lost, I have kept all

of them" and also that he will present us faultless. It’s quite an assurance.

A pastor friend and I were reasoning about the exact thing some time ago, he

said he rather not teach it to his church because Christians will take it for

granted and with content cushion their ungodly deeds.  But as I always say,

'its God's church let him do the worrying'. May God continue to bless you and

your ministry.” – W. T., From New York

 ANNA'S WEDDING TURNED NIGHTMARE - Help!

.

“It was finally here - Anna's wedding day, the day she had dreamed about and

planned for months. The small, picturesque church was crowded with friends

and family. Sunlight poured through the stained-glass windows, and gentle music

of a stringed quartet filled the air. Anna walked down the aisle toward David.

Joy surged within her. This was the moment for which she had waited so long.

He gently took her hand, and they turned toward the altar.

But as the minister began to lead Anna and David through their vows, the unthinkable

happened. A girl stood up in the middle of the congregation, walked quietly

to the altar, and took David's other hand. Another girl approached and stood

next to the first, followed by another. Soon, a chain of six girls stood by

him as he repeated his vows to Anna.

.

Anna felt her lips beginning to quiver as tears welled up in her eyes. "Is

this some kind of joke?" she whispered to David.

.

"I'm...I'm sorry, Anna," he said, staring at the floor.

"Who are these girls, David? What is going on?" she gasped.

"They're girls from my past," he answered sadly. "Anna they don't mean anything

to me now...but I've given part of my heart to each of them."

"I thought your heart was mine," she said.

"It is, it is,” He pleaded. "Everything that's left is yours."

.

A tear rolled down Anna's cheek.

.

Then she woke up.”

.

We are in a new era and even the young and innocent are feeling it!

.

Everyone, there is a lot of work out there to be done, especially amongst our

teenagers. I am really, really, really, really, really sadden by the comments,

concerns and questions of actual teenagers who have an affinity towards Christianity.

I'm really sadden while reading them; the thought of hopelessness then floods

my mind, then I have to brace myself. But is there no balm in Gilead, is there

no discerner, is there no one that will say honey I can’t tonight…I promised

I’d help Daniel; is there no one that would say I must give up that business

opportunity before John gets his ‘willy’ in the wrong place. “Where are the

mothers? Where are the Fathers? Where are the eyes, where are the true born

again caring Christians that are willing to give their lives for the sake of

saving this lost generation. Where are you? Please stand up, please help me,

please help us, please help. I need your help.

  . 

The internet is a dangerous place and during the holidays that’s where the

kids turn to, according to the researchers. For instance, I received an email

entitled animal lovers, seeing that I love animals I decided to open the email.

To my surprise what I saw was the most sinful thing in humanity. I was disgusted

and sick to my stomach that at the spur of the moment I asked God to kill these

people (God forgive me). How could human beings allow themselves to be s¥xed

by dogs, horses and other animals (bestiality)? Men and men, women and women

doing the most disgraceful, heinous acts of sin known to human kind. They are

even site where real mothers go at their son, father at their daughters and

even family orgies (incest p@rn). My God I feel sick again. And our children

and teens get these mails and see these websites on a daily basis. In fact,

most of these p@rn stars are young girls under the age of 18. I remember going

to the public library sometime ago and I saw with my own eyes a group of young

students in the age of  7-11 accessing p@rn. When they saw me, they quickly

tried to get rid of it; so they knew that they were doing something wrong.

Just the other day searching for images to put on the website, I came across

a site that advertise half-nude young girls in the age of 7-12. I was so disgusted

I contacted the FBI and a few other agencies and reported the matter. I’m not

trying to seem approved but my God we have gone too far and this generation

is going further. Teens are suffering, young people are dying because of all

the smut demons that are unleashed in our country. Young boys and young girls

deciding to become homos¥xuals rather than go God’s perfect way. Where are

the leaders, pastors and teachers – chasing money, dreams and television ministries

while the young perish. If you knew some of the things these teens confessed,

wondered and t-r-i-e-d. For instance, just look at what some ‘Christian Teens’

had to discuss among themselves, because no adult is approachable and available.

You should have seen the answers they gave among themselves too.

1. “My boyfriend isn’t a Christian. (I know, I know "for what does the light

have in common with the dark...") apparently he’s even gotten a rather bad

impression the whole Christian thing. I LOVE God with all of my heart and I

want to share that with him. Anyone got any ideas as to how to introduce him

to it so as not to scare him?”-spnx

. 

2. “I dated a guy for two years until we broke up a couple of weeks ago. He

broke up with me because he said that he wanted to start a new life after he

was baptized and I wasn't in it. We had decided to go to grad together a couple

of days ago and things went okay until I had gone for a walk with one of my

guy friends and he found out. He went looking for me and found me down the

street. Then he totally broke down crying and he yelled at me swearing and

telling me that I was all these bad names. Now he wants to go out with me again.

What should I do? We were very close.” JeNnO

3. “My boyfriend and I broke up just a few days ago. Right now, I can’t eat...I

just feel..horrible...I need a Christian to talk to. I know that God has a

reason I am going through this..but it doesn’t make it less painful. If you

have any advice or anything, please leave it, thanks.” Girlie4God

4. “Ok, me and some of my friends were hanging out at church at a Pizza Party

Then there were 4 of us left (2 boys & 2 girls). It was getting dark out and

my friend tried to put the moves on and make out with my 2 guy friends. Then

she started crying about how she needed a boyfriend. I can tell u the rest

of the story if you email me. But if you have any advice I can give her let

me know!!” 

. 

5. “Ever since spring break I have been letting myself go further and further

with guys. I not only cheated on my boyfriend, but I did it on a church trip.

I know what I did was not cool at all, and I definitely got what I deserved.

I have done "stuff" with 7 guys in less than 2 months, and I wasn’t dating

any of them, I am still a virgin, but there is a lot of stuff u can do without

having s¥x. I just don’t know why I keep doing stuff with them, and I feel

so worthless now, I just wish I could not do it. Anyone have advice, please

help!!” --samantha

. 

6. “Well do you all think that masturbating is a sin? I think it's a sin if

it occurs in groups, or if it's used as an escape, but normally I don't see

a problem [Lie].”

. 

7. “I need help...I think I might be pregnant. I haven't had actual intercourse,

but I looked on several sites and they said that if you had sperm on your hand

and then masturbated, you could become pregnant. I have screwed up in my life

and I gave a guy and “hand job” then masturbated. If I'm pregnant, I don't

know what I'll do!”

. 

8. “What’s wrong with s¥x? My friend says it is wrong I don't see why as long

as you have protection so you don't have a baby when you’re too young…. I’m

not having s¥x with a freak; he's a really nice guy that I love. We agree to

just have s¥x with each other and we will get married some day. Don't you think

the Bible is the way it used to be but now were in a new time where things

are different? We have to have s¥x and stuff to see if we're really in love.”

. 

9. “I went to a church lock in u stay the night and u don't go to sleep but

if u want to they have separate girl and guy rooms, well none of my friends

wanted to go to sleep and I did, well 3 guys went in a were talking to me (which

is okay as long as door is wide open) well they took my pillow and ran in their

room I figured *hey they are just playing* so I ran in there and garbed my

pillow well the biggest guy ran to the door when I was trying to get out and

held it and turned the light off, while the other 2 kept feeling on me and

trying to drag me to the floor, I feel dirty and I don't know how to explain

to my boyfriend what happened, I feel so terrible like it was my fault for

running in there to get my pillow, what do I do????? And is it all my fault??”

. 

10. “OK. Here goes. I had a boyfriend "Ryan" for about 8 months. We were great

together, he never pressured me about s¥x, and if I felt uncomfortable in a

situation (which was rare) and I told him to stop, he would immediately. When

he broke up with me, I was crushed. 2 days after this, he told me he had made

a mistake and that he wanted me back. I told him no, because I thought we needed

time apart. He agreed, and then asked me how long I thought we needed. I said

I didn't know, and he said well then maybe it's better we did break up. That

was the end of that. I recently (about 1 month) broke up with my boyfriend

"Ethan" of one year. Ethan was great. He treated me like a princess, but he

drove me absolutely nuts. He was way too sensitive for me. He cried when I

didn't hold his hand. I realize that he is just a sensitive guy, and I accept

that, but I just didn't think we should take it any further. Now, Ryan wants

to get back together. I told him that since Ethan and I had just broken up,

that I wanted to wait awhile, and Ryan said he would wait. This confused me

because Ryan is not a patient guy. I really like Ryan and when I was with him,

I was happy. When he broke up with me, I cried for three days. When I broke

up with Ethan, It was kind of a relief. I guess I'm just wondering if I should

go for it with Ryan, or keep waiting. I'm just afraid that I will lose Ryan.

But I want to be considerate of Ethan's feelings. I hope I am being rational

about this, and I hope that I don’t sound too shallow. I've prayed and will

keep praying, but any advice is welcome. Thanks for listening.”

11. “Ok lust is something that I have struggled with for a long time. I don’t

know how to get over it. I’m not like some sick little pervert or anything

but sometimes those thoughts happen. It really gets me down. Does anyone have

any suggestions on how to not have lustful thoughts and stuff? In His awesome

name” -Jaman

.

12.   “I went out wit this guy named Dan again for a while and over the weekend

I dumped cause he’s not a Christian and I want to stay close to Christ and

all. Well he said all this really mean stuff to my best friend Daniella about

me and today I was trying really hard to talk to him and stuff and he wouldn’t

listen and stuff. I really still like him a lot and my other friend Theresa

knows that and today she asked him out! :-( And she did it even after I told

her how I still liked him and all and she promised me she wouldn’t and all

and also Dan said to me that he wanted me to stop liking him and said that

he was laughing at me for trying to talk to him and stuff. I’m sooo heart broken.

I thought I was in love wit Dan and that breaking up wit him would be for the

better of Christ and me. I also thought that Theresa was one of my best friends

but she’s dating Dan now even though she promised me that friends always come

before guys. I’m sooo upset! Please pray for me!”

13. “I was just wondering, I am getting my boyfriend this ring for our 6 month

anniversary, and you can engrave something on the inside. Does anyone have

any suggestions as to what I can say??? Nothing too long please. And something

appropriate. Thanks. Oh by the way. I kinda need this in a hurry. I am getting

it done this Saturday!” Pryzma

.

14.   “Do you think it is a wrong 4 me to go out with a guy over the net????

He is really sweet and nice but I need to know what other people think!!!!!!!!!!

Me and this guy chat ALOT and I get like 19 emails a day (no kidding) I was

the one who said that I liked him first... a couple weeks after that he emailed

me telling me that he thought I was sweet, then after that I guess we just

hit it off.”

.

15.  “If you're a Christian, then is it wrong to have s¥x before you're married?

My friend and I were talking, and I said, " I'm not gonna have s¥x till I'm

married" but she replied. " Well, what if you’re really bad at it, then like

you’re hubby doesn’t want u, isn’t it better to get practice?" now I don’t

know what to do, cause I love my boyfriend Travis, and we both said lets wait,

but now I’m wondering, would it be wrong not to? I love Travis.......... help!”

.

16.  “Ok I was out visiting an ex boyfriend and a bunch of friends that I hadn't

seen in two years. Well we were hanging at the guys house for a while and then

when it came time for him to take me back to where I was staying he was like

before you get home we are going to make out. I was like hey buddy I don't

think so and he locked the doors on the car and wouldn't let me out till I

did. It was the scariest thing that has ever happened. What should I do about

this?”

.

17.  “I am 17, my best mate and her b-friend slept together once and now she

is pregnant. How should I help her? We are still at school!”

18.   “A while back I was babysitting for someone when I had to give their

kid a bath. I stripped him naked, and put him in the bubbly water. I felt a

sensation in my loins and was suddenly very aroused. I saw through my sinful

fog and it occurred to me that I was being tempted from the pits of hell. I

ran screaming from the room, and ran all the way home. Now I have not left

my apartment for a week, and I continue to have outbursts of sinful thoughts

about young children. I often catching myself flipping thru Family magazine

for the pictures of the blonde haired boys.... oh god please help me!! SATAN

BE GONE!!!!!!!EVIL BE GONE, I LIKE BOYS STILL!! BUT I DONT

WANT TO DO ANYTHING DRASTIC! HELP ME GOD!!!HELP

JESUS!!!!HELP ME MOTHER MARY!!! I DONT TO SIN NO MO!!!!!!!”

 -Diana

Please help, please help, pleaseeeee help! Talk to the kids

in your church, organize sessions, be straight, and accompany them on outings.

Give up your trips to facilitate theirs. Tell them that you love them and stop

calling them names you don’t want to be called. You might be a good parent

and role model to your child, compel the others in your church to be too. Pastors

have teaching sessions on dealing with the young people, put on dinners for

them. Do everything possible to invest in them, the time, energy, power, interest

and everything else to make them come out better than you were. Don’t just

tell them the facts or be religious, explain it to them.

 . 

I came across a bible verse that fits this context, “when thy son asketh thee

in time to come, saying, What mean the testimonies, and the statutes, and the

judgments, which the LORD our God hath commanded you? Then thou shalt say unto

thy son, we were Pharaoh's bondmen in Egypt; and the LORD brought us out of

Egypt with a mighty hand: and the LORD..." (Due 6:20) 

 . 

In other words, when a youngster asks the older, “why do you offer sacrifices

and obey all these customs,” they MUST explain to him the “whole 9 yards.”

Likewise, when the youths ask you the leaders why is it forbidden to have s¥x

with the same s¥x, why is it forbidden to have s¥x with animals (My God!),

why is it dangerous to sensuously play with our genitals, why must we wait

until marriage to be deflowered, why can’t I have more than one spouse, why

must I come to church, why must we obey godly leadership, why can’t we dress

like pimps and ‘whores?’ It is commanded that you explain it to them in details.

Here are some reasons!

.

Unless you don’t, satan’s imps, disguise as their friends, will. Christ our

father, could have stayed in heaven and gave us just punishments and let us

loose and wild upon the earth, but by his grace he came and taught us how to

“deny all ungodliness.”  This is for our example; he came and did more than

any father could ever do. Why can’t we even attempt it? I love my father dearly

and I grew up with him, but he never even taught me how to shave. On my twelfth

birthday, he gave me a book call “Everything a Teenage boy should know;” and

that was it from him to me all my teen-adolescent life. Not blaming him, because

he didn’t have it in him to, for his father died when he was around five and

his job had him most of the time. But we are here and we have many examples

as ambassadors to Christ and being empowered by the Holy Spirit in all wisdom.

Let us therefore be his example of what he did; that is, he gave up all for

us, his children.

.

Parents, Pastors, Peer leaders, Youth Pastors, anyone, everyone, someone need

your help, someone needs your attention, someone needs for you to let them

know you care. If you don’t, someone else (devil) whom you don’t like very

much, will do it. You too need help, we all have issues and need help, and

I especially need your help. But how, where, when, why, whom? Yes, Jesus but…Yes,

Christ but…Yes he cares, but…. To tell the truth no matter how much you tell

me to visualize Jesus, I still can’t physically feel his warm embrace regardless of how hard
I sing the songs of Zion, nor do I always audible hear him. Stop pushing me off, stop
throwing a religious camouflage down my throat, I NEED YOUR HELP!
This, my friends, is the cry of our youths. Remember this, as I leave you with a sermon by

Minister Mark Brown entitled, “I need your help,” God is no respecter of persons
but he does respect his principles, so if you really want to please him, walk in
LOVE; that’s his principle and guess what I had to find out the hard way? – IT’S A SACRIFICE!

 "In a JTF television program which aired in Manhattan on Sunday, September 11, 1994 -- precisely seven years to the day before the horrendous Muslim Nazi attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon -- Chaim Ben Pesach explicitly predicted that the Muslim terrorists who bombed the Twin Towers in 1993 would return to finish their bloody work, murdering thousands of Americans in the process. [The broadcaster, because of his adept knowledge in terrorism, kept calling the FBI, CIA and all these secret services to inform them of the plot, but they wouldn't listen, until Sept 11, 2001 when 5000 people got killed. How that could have avoided if they took heed to these warnings and plea's.
