Wittenberg Gate reports that Kate who recovered from a so-called “PVS” state will appear on Larry King tonight.

This from Wittingshire supports my concern that “the generation that began killing its children will itself be killed by its children”

Terri Schiavo has died- how many more innocent deaths to come?

March 31, 2005

Terri Schiavo – murdered by the American System?

March 31, 2005

Terri has died in a way quite bizarre to me as a UK observer. How can it be that both the governor of the state and the president can express a desire for a different outcome and yet this woman was starved to death. How can the US parliment and courts disagree so [...]

What is the purpose of preaching?

March 30, 2005

Just spotted an old comment on my blog. It came from a man called Mick Porter who appears not to have a blog. I honestly hope he does get one at some point though.

The Cost of and rewards of preaching to be a Soul-Winner

March 30, 2005

Preaching the simple gospel is not as easy as it looks. I think that what Spurgeon says below is true to a greater or lesser degree of all preachers used significantly by God. Paul was not the only preacher of whom God has said “I will show him how much he must suffer for [...]

More on the power of preaching to change lives

March 28, 2005

Blogotional appears to be doubting the power of preaching to change lives. I have not taken this matter further lately, but intend to do so! All I have time to say right now is that faith is produced by preaching. It is faith that is the foundation not just of our salvation [...]

Blogging for an eternal purpose

March 28, 2005

Rick Warren on Larry King Live

March 28, 2005

CNN had an interview with Rick Warren in the aftermath of the Ashley Smith incident. I know that Warren has many detractors, but all I can say is I rejoice that the gospel message got out on CNN through him.

Ashely Smith and the purpose of a murderer turning up in your house
