From the Frontline-Episode 261-The Cancel Culture Woke World War

There is much we can learn from the recent backlash by consumers leading to catastrophic declines in income for Target, one of the largest chain stores in America which, after launching trans gender clothing for children and even babies, in just one week, lost more than $9 Billion in corporate value on the stock exchange. After launching a very woke advert for their brand, Bud light is facing such a boycott from alienated customers, that they have been reduced to actually offering crates of their beer for free and are even still being rejected by consumers. After offering massive discounts, but light is not being offered free, but consumers are still not interested. Since provoking a massive backlash against their woke policies and repeated insertion of LGBTQ+ themes and radical political agenda in an increasingly failing series of films and events at their resorts Disney, once one of the most successful family entertainment producers has had to lay off more than 7500 workers. After employing a transgender man to model their women’s sportswear, Nike also discovered that those who go woke, go broke! Pres Vladimir Putin recently observed that Russia had already been there: the Bolshevik revolution of 1917 introduced cancel culture, destroying monuments, removing teachers, professors and pastors, renaming streets and buildings, as a preparation for political and cultural revolution. Those who seek to eradicate your religion, history and heritage, plan to enslave you, control you and will ultimately seek to exterminate you. The Soviet Union also waged war against history, Christianity and against the family. They distorted gender roles and conscripted women into the Red army. Ultimately, cancel culture is a war against Christian civilisation, a war against God Himself. “For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.” 2 Timothy 1:7.

From the Frontline-Episode 259-Pentecost Sunday and the Power of the Holy Spirit

From the Frontline: the Power of Pentecost

28 May is Pentecost Sunday. What is the significance of Pentecost? How is Pentecost Sunday relevant to the church today? What does the Bible teach concerning Spiritual warfare and spiritual weapons? What are we as Christians called to do when confronted by so much evil in the world today? We need Christians endued with supernatural power to win the spiritual war at present raging (Acts 1:8). There are far too many of our friends, families and churches that are being undermined, chained and crippled by the forces of evil (2 Corinthians 4:4). The time has come to rise up and go out in the power of God’s Spirit and annihilate wickedness and worldliness. We must set the prisoners free (Isaiah 61:1). We must win the victory (Romans 8:37). We must win our world for Jesus (1 John 5:4) and in the power of the Holy Spirit and in the Name of Jesus we shall, we must, we will prevail. In order to set free the prisoners of sin and satan the Lord has given believers power to bind evil (Matthew 12:19). We can restrict, limit and oppose the powers of rebellion, doubt, unbelief, sin, perversion, slavery and hatred (Matthew 18:18). We have power to overcome the gates of hell, to storm the very strongholds of evil (Matthew 16:18-19) and to set the prisoners free (Luke 11:22). To announce liberty to the captives (Luke 4:18). Even the demons must obey us when we give them a command in Jesus Name (Luke 10:17; Acts 16:18; Mark 16:17). This is because, as we place ourselves in submission to the power of God, we are able to resist the lesser power of the enemy (James 4:7).

“Greater is Him who is in us, than him who is in the world.”

1 John 4:4

From the Frontline-Episode 258- Rapidly Escalating Conflict erupts in Sudan

From the Frontline: Rapidly escalating Conflict erupts in Sudan

what is going on in Sudan? There are reports of renewed fighting in the capital city of Khartoum, foreign embassies are scrambling to evacuate their citizens from the embattled country. After several years of peace, there were hopes that years of war were over for Sudan. What happened? What has led to this new escalation of conflict in this North African country? Why are the factions which have worked together for number of years now in open conflict? What can we learn from recent history in Sudan? Is there any outside interference at work in this conflict?

“Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may run swiftly and be glorified, just as it is with you, and that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men; for not all have faith.”

2 Thessalonians 3:1 - 2

From the Frontline: You Can Use Literature to Win Africa for Christ

How can we be more effective in using literature to fulfil the Great Commission of our Lord Jesus Christ. What resources are available?

"For the Word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart."

Hebrews 4:12

From the Frontline: Literature to Win Africa for Christ

Last week we received guests from  Kenya. A film crew from Africa Speaks had driven down, overland, from Nairobi. The film producer, Gathuku, told us that he was part of the Great Commission conference I spoke at, in 2000 at Kenyatta University. He had also been part of a conference I spoke at, in 2016 at Kabarak University. He had  received my book the Greatest Century of Missions at that event. He had since helped launch Africa Speaks as a network of publishing professionals united to establish a viable and flourishing Christian publishing industry throughout Africa. We discussed many important aspects of Christian literature and how to fulfil the Great Commission throughout Africa.

"The Lord gave the Word; great was the company of those that published it."

Psalm 68:11
