New Zealand – from bad to worse!

New Zealand PM Jacinda Ardern has resigned

See Update Below.

New Zealand is in the midst of a political crisis, of the making of its present Prime Minister, Jacinda Ardern, who has suddenly announced that she is stepping down as a result of being no longer able physically and mentally to carry the burden of leadership. She says she has no regrets over her decision to step down.

She has been one whose policies have been exceedingly ‘liberal’, with her giving support to many of the modern perversions. It was reported in ‘The Spectator’ of  14th July 2021, that “Jacinda Ardern’s Labour government has been busy prioritising a bill that would effectively allow anyone to become a woman just because they wanted to.”

In eternity Mrs Ardern may have many deep regrets about that course of action!

She has set a trend in motion in her land as is seen in recent news report that one of the ‘potential candidates (for replacing Mrs Ardern) include Minister of Justice Kiri Allan, 39. If successful she would become the country’s first prime minister of Maori descent, as well as the first openly gay leader.’

Once sin gets in, it soon establishes itself and takes root!

UPDATE: 23 January 2023

Here is an update on the political situation in New Zealand from a pro-family values organisation in that land. The newsletter was shared with me by a friend.

Update on situation in New Zealand

 

This trend of those given over to a lifestyle in complete defiance of God and His Law, is a trend developing everywhere in western ‘democracies’. On our island, our neighbours in the Roman Catholic, Republic of Ireland, are presently led for the second time by Leo Varadkar, who openly flaunts his perverted sodomite lifestyle. (more…)

Back to paganism

The following was circulated in a ‘news letter’ sent out by “CitizenGO”.

The subject it raises is most serious but it fails to highlight the full implications of the incident. A petition to the Home Secretary may help in the short-term but such a response betrays a failure to grasp the full implications of this incident.

In brief, here is what the ‘newsletter’ stated.

His offence? Praying for his son, who died as a result of abortion 22 years ago, near an abortion facility in Bournemouth.

I replied to a good friend and supporter who sent me the report early this morning, in the following way:

“It is chiefly sad that this man was deceived into praying for his dead son, especially since the little one seems to have been deliberately killed by an abortionist.

The fact that he was issued with a fine for doing so ought not to surprise us. The nation at every level has departed from God and has returned to the only alternative to the true source of knowledge, which is the Word of God, to that of man’s own depraved heart and mind.

Such a source of instruction will result in utter folly and error as to what is right and what is wrong.

On this occasion there is a protest about a man being penalised for what he was mentally engaged in.

That reminds me of the court of Artaxerxes the Persian king. We read in Nehemiah 2, that God’s servant was sad of heart and distressed by his thoughts regarding the state of Jerusalem for he had just been informed of its ruined state, 1:2-3.

“Hanani, one of my brethren, came, he and certain men of Judah; and I asked them concerning the Jews that had escaped, which were left of the captivity, and concerning Jerusalem. And they said unto me, The remnant that are left of the captivity there in the province are in great affliction and reproach: the wall of Jerusalem also is broken down, and the gates thereof are burned with fire.”

This set him to praying brokenly for the people and the city. his sadness showed on his face and his sorrowful countenance was noticed by the king since he was a chief attendant upon the king.

“Wherefore the king said unto me, Why is thy countenance sad, seeing thou art not sick? this is nothing else but sorrow of heart. Then I was very sore afraid,” Nehemiah 2:2.

Such a facial expression was not permitted in the presence of the king and could result in death!

This was man’s reasoning at its worst. The sad expression of Nehemiah could upset the king and ‘ruin’ his day! (more…)
