Prayer & The Body of Christ in Perth
Dr. Simon Karginoff
Jesus has made provision for all that we need pertaining to life but often we seem to have a problem of access. My prayer for me and mine and your prayer for you and yours and usually not somebody else’s prayer - is the means of accessing the provision. I believe that when the scriptures tell us that the same spirit dwells within me/you that raised Christ from the dead and that this same spirit will quicken/strengthen my/our/your mortal body by implication this means our prayers will be quickened. Dr Bernard Blessing (pic), during his most recent visit to Perths, said that if we pray diligently our city of Perth will be changed. He said that the Body of Christ in our city and also in our nation would change. It will become less spotty and without so many blemishes. It will become progressively more glorious and so His Bride will bring Him more glory. If we would pray together – if the various church leaders pray together and submit to one another and prefer one another – if the different churches come together in one accord, in unity, putting aside our petty theological differences and rebuke the spirits of competitiveness and criticism and judgement and condemnation and support one another, esteem one another and love on each other – oh my brother and sister – it will put a smile on the Father’s face and Father, Son and Holy Spirit will be up doing a jig in heaven. <more>

Jul 22 Cambodia General Election July 27, 2008
Currently ruled by Cambodian's Peoples Party under PM Hun Sen since 1985. The opposition parties are led by disunited royalists providing the ruling party an almost certainty to remain in power. Nevertheless, Cambodia is rift with corruption and in dire needs of better public infrastructures particularly in transport and judiciary. The Church in Cambodia enjoys relative freedom and is one of the fastest growing in the world. Similarly, Cambodia economic growth rates in recent years ranked amongst the highest in the world, partly owing to the low points Cambodia experienced after the disastrous Pol Pot regime and the civil wars that followed. Nevertheless, Cambodians have been supportive of Hun Sen's rule and have voted him into power in previous elections. However, price increases in food and transportation will be greivance points that will be raised during the lead up to the election.

Jul 18 Pope Benedict XVI's inaugural pontiff's all-emcompassing message at the World Youth Day in Sydney both encouraged and challenged all within and without the Church. "World Youth Day in Sydney has seen an unprecedented public proclamation of the Gospel of Christ through the Australian media. Far from just a call to private faith behind the four walls of a church, this event has like no other, challenged, questioned and confronted secular society with the social claims of the Christian Gospel " -- ACL (Australian Christian Lobby)

June 30 Laos relaxed restriction on Christians in Attapeu province of southern Laos following years of persecution, the local government now recognizes Christianity as a legitimate religion. Only five years ago local authorities ordered believers to renounce their faith or be exiled from their villages. Christians were prohibited from using common wells, rice mills and other public facilities. At the beginning of 2002, 73 people professed faith in Christ. But by the end of the year, after heavy persecution, only 30 believers remained steadfast. Persecution continued in subsequent years as Christians were denied basic resources and forced to walk two hours to buy food. Local officials attached posters to the front doors of Christians to identify them. Persecutors poisoned the believers' animals and threw rocks at their homes. In 2004 several missionaries were arrested and imprisoned for one year. Now, however, for the first time, Christians are able to legally worship in churches. Today 336 believers gather for worship in the province with a sharp increase expected because of the new freedoms.
