2017 – A Year of Shame – a Failure to Protect
The Royal Commission into Sexual Abuse has correctly condemned sections of the institutionalised church for its failure to protect. As God’s people we have failed to protect. And as a country we are also now guilty.
We failed to protect against our “little ones being led into sin”.
But in the midst of failure we had a notable “success” – we now have a God’s army of dedicated, prayerful people from all walks of life with multiple magnificent skills and experience.
2018 – A Year of Celebration
As a people of God may it be seen and heard that “the shout of the King” is among us.

In the second point you talk about loving our neighbour. Surely the distress felt by LGBTQI people presently caused by this plebiscite is a reason to say “yes”, thus affirming their homosexual orientation, loving them as Jesus taught.
A belated response to those Christians saying “yes” or abstaining and a reminder to pray.

And this of course leads to the threat to our freedom – control of belief and to speak of that which we believe, and beyond that, control of our thoughts and minds – if necessary with correctional re-education classes. This threat is spearheaded by the push for same-sex marriage

Even more outrageously, CCR is claiming that Lively’s pro-family speeches were “international crimes against humanity” are comparable to the Nazi crimes in WWII. CCR is attempting to sue Lively in a United States courtroom using a law from the 1700s. Read more here.
The lawsuit against Pastor Lively has been ongoing since 2012 and has garnered international notoriety. To a normal observer, the extent of this lawsuit strains the imagination that a court would allow it at all. But to the LGBT activists, it makes perfect sense.

“…and your neighbour as yourself.” If we see a flood coming and we do not warn our blind neighbour then we have failed to love him.

We are at war. We have been in Pearl Harbour and we have been asleep, Darwin has been bombed, and now we are in the Battle of the Coral Sea. This battle will shape – as it did – the future of Australia. Australia is at risk in a way it has never been before. The issues we have talked about transcend all other issues. Today we have choices – choices at the ballot box and a choice with the marriage plebiscite – and they are choices that each of us must make before God. I trust and pray that as we inevitably face increasing persecution for our children and their children that you will not look back with regret on 2016 with a sense of failure that you were not awake, that you did not do enough and that you made wrong choices.

Yes we can. But we need to cover the battle with ongoing prayer http://www.chooselifeaustralia.org.au/life/can-we-win-the-marriage-plebiscite-yes-we-can/

Can we win the Marriage Plebiscite? Yes we can. Slowly we are turning the tide in Australia against the automatic “oh, just let them do it – it won’t affect us”.

I watched a movie last night (very unusual but I needed some time out). It was the story of Esther. Not one I would bother watching again but it sheathed home the message “for such a time as this”.
Please come to the Marriage Rally this coming Sunday in your capital city (in WA west end of Langley Park 2pm). See http://unityaustralia.org/ for detail and map.

Yes, a black day in history.
Can we hold back the tide of evil in Australia?
Will we even be targeted for asking this question?
The need for discernment and spiritual warfare has never been greater.
And in this awareness we must never think we can stand in our own strength.
