Nurse At Mount Sinai Hospital Sues Hospital-Forced To Assist in Late Term Abortion Against Her Will


A New York nurse and devout catholic who was allegedly lied to by Mount Sinai Hospital bosses and forced to assist in a late term abortion is suing the hospital.

The nurse claims she was forced to choose between her religious convictions and her job when Mount Sinai Hospital ordered her to assist in a late-term abortion against her will.
The hospital even exaggerated the patient's condition and claimed the woman could die if the nurse, a devout Catholic, did not follow orders, the nurse alleges in a lawsuit.

"It felt like a horror film unfolding," said Catherina Cenzon-DeCarlo, 35, who claims she has had gruesome nightmares and hasn't been able to sleep since the May 24 incident.

  • Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee. Jeremiah 1:5
The married mother of a year-old baby was 30 minutes into her early-morning shift when she realized she had been assigned to an abortion. She begged her supervisor to find a replacement nurse for the procedure. The hospital had a six-hour window to find a fill-in, the suit says.

Bosses told the weeping Cenzon-DeCarlo the patient was 22 weeks into her pregnancy and had preeclampsia, a condition marked by high blood pressure that can lead to seizures or death if left untreated.

The supervisor "claimed that the mother could die if [Cenzon-DeCarlo] did not assist in the abortion."

But the nurse, the niece of a Filipino bishop, contends that the patient's life was not in danger. She argued that the patient was not even on magnesium therapy, a common treatment for preeclampsia, and did not have problems indicating an emergency.

Those of us in the medical profession with religious convictions aginst the murder of the unborn need to take a stand and say no to intimidating employers.  There is coming a time and is already here when each of us will be tested by our Lord for our beliefs and we must be ready to let our conscience and religious convictions be our guide and stay in the Word of God.  No job is worth having to live with the nightmare day after day of knowing you assisted in the murder of the unborn and if enough medical personnel say no to abortions, hospitals will have to get someone else to do their dirty work for them.

Britain: Islamics Trying To Convert Shoppers to Islam Say 'Jesus Was A Muslim'



Islamics, trying to convert shoppers to Islam, set about trying to convince shoppers that Jesus was a muslim, causing religious tensions in the centre of Wood Green in Britain.Read about it here
  • "These people were slagging off Britain and trying to convert people to Islam. They were quite confrontational".

#####

While Jesus wishes that none should perish and came to save the entire human race, Jesus definitely was not a muslim. The entire Holy Scriptures, the Bible, is centered around Jesus, Israel, Jesus being a Jew himself, and the Jews; Jesus being of the tribe of Judah, God's chosen. The Holy Scriptures tell us that Jesus in John 8:44 said satan is the father of lies, and the islamic activists promoting this lie are spewing a lie from the pit of hell.

The Jewish apostle Paul, who called himself an Israelite, from the tribe of Benjamin, (Romans 11:1) chosen by Jesus Christ himself after His resurrection,(Acts 9:15) wrote in Romans Chapter 9: I say the truth in Christ, I lie not, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Ghost, That I have great heaviness and continual sorrow in my heart. For I could wish that myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh; Who are Israelites; to whom pertaineth the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service of God, and the promises; Whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh Christ came, who is over all, God blessed forever. Amen 1-5

Christianity was founded by the Son of God, Jesus Christ Himself in the first century around 30 AD, (Matthew 13:16-18) and His original twelve chosen Jewish apostles; (Mark 6:7) the muslim religion never saw the light of day until around 570-632 AD. The muslim religion teaches that God has no son. Surah 4:157-158

Palestinians Living in Jordan Citizenship Revoked

The Jerusalem Post is reporting Jordanian authorities have started revoking the citizenship of thousands of Palestinians living in Jordan to avoid a situation in which they would be "resettled" permanently in the kingdom, Jordanian and Palestinian officials revealed on Monday.

What's behind the King of Jordan, Abdullah, to revoke the citizenship of "palestinians" living in Jordan? Because the "palestinians" you hear so much about living in Israel the West Bank, and Gaza are arabs from Jordan that are a part of the Middle East war history who have been used to keep the uprising against Israel ongoing.

In Amman, Jordan, King Abdullah has apparently authorized the revoking of these arab palestinians living in Jordan for fear he and his kingdom will be overthrown by Jordanian arabs, "palestinians", now living in Jordan in the same manner which occurred when King Abdullah's father was king of Jordan. When Abdullah's father was King of Jordan, Yassar Arafat of the then PLO attempted to overthrow him and Abdullah's father threw Yassar Arafat and the PLO out of Jordan. Watch King Abdullah of Jordan.

Quebec Physicians Propose Legalized Euthanasia

Euthanasia, another name for legalized murder, is a North American thought process that is rapidly attempting to follow the European thought process, is now being proposed by physicians in Quebec.

This is a shameful idea regardless of the location and these people who call themselves physicians need to be exposed in the same manner as the abortion murderers in the medical profession and go back under the rocks they crawled out from under. Who will be next to be legally murdered, or euthanasied? The disabled and physically handicapped? Remember Terri Schiavo , a healthy young woman who was denied food and water by order of the American government until she died? The mentally challenged? The elderly? Hospice patients?

  • July 16, 2009 (LifeSiteNews.com) - In what one prominent euthanasia opponent has called "a straw man argument," the Quebec College of Physicians is proposing that euthanasia be legalized "as part of the appropriate care in certain particular circumstances." The Globe and Mail broke the story today, and at the same time launched an online poll asking its readership, "Do you support the legalization of assisted suicide?"
  • After having examined the issue for three years, the College's task force on ethics concluded that Quebec society has grown to the point where it can now tolerate euthanasia. "The question here is to decide whether a drop in dosage or an increase in dosage constitutes a criminal act," said College secretary, Dr. Yves Robert to the Globe and Mail.
  • Dr. Robert is referring to circumstances that occur occasionally, where gravely ill patients may be in such pain that the amount of medication they require to relieve their pain could result in their death. "We are being very cautious in our approach," said Dr. Robert. "Avoiding the debate contributes to the general hypocrisy around this issue. To say that it doesn't happen because it is illegal is completely stupid. ... We have to stop hiding our head in the sand."
  • The College is contending that a patient's death in this case would constitute euthanasia. "We may go as far as to recommend that in certain cases," says Dr. Robert, "where the pain is unbearable, the amount of analgesic required could correspond to a form of euthanasia."Story continues

Cure For Radiation Sickness Found?


Here's an amazing story in direct fulfillment of Daniel's prophecy for the time of the end -- a promising discovery of a cure for radiation sickness by Jewish- American scientists. This dramatic discovery, it is reported, could change the world. What does it mean for Israel? For Israel, the discovery marks a particularly dramatic development that could deeply affect the main issue on the defense establishment's agenda: Protection against a nuclear attack by Iran or against "dirty bomb" attacks by terror groups. Read the story from Ynetnews.com

Hundreds of Thousands Protest in Iran Today (With Video)


Hundreds of thousands of people are again protesting in Iran today, with eye witnesses saying as many as one million people participated in the massive demonstrations against the brutal Iranian regime.

Rafsanjani defies Ayatollah Ali Khamenei As Protesters Turn Out in Force

Tens of thousands of Iranians flooded the streets of Tehran yesterday to hear the country’s most influential powerbroker pronounce the Islamic Republic in crisis and as he called for the release of those arrested in recent pro-democracy demonstrations.

In a devastating attack on the regime, Ali Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani, a leading cleric and former President, told a crowd at Tehran University that the Government had lost the people’s trust. Referring to the handling of last month’s disputed election, which President Ahmadinejad claims to have won, he said that the custodians of the Islamic Revolution had undermined its basic principles.

Hojatoleslam Rafsanjani condemned the brutal suppression of protests and called for the release of those detained during the post-election crackdown. The crowd acclaimed his address by chanting: “Death to the dictator” and “Leaders, give us arms”. More

ISRAEL: MESSIANIC JEW WINS SUPREME COURT BATTLE

Many of you who visit here are aware of the very difficult struggle and persecution believers in Jesus Christ, or messianic Jews, undergo living in Israel today from the orthodox and secular Jewish people from the many reports I have written about here.

Three years ago a bakery owner in Israel lost her Jewish dietary law certificate because of her faith in Jesus Christ. The good news is that recently it was announced that this messianic Jew wins the Supreme Court battle.

JERUSALEM , July 15 (Compass Direct News) – For three long years a Jewish believer in Christ struggled to keep her bakery business alive after the Chief Rabbinate of Israel, the country’s highest religious governing body, annulled her kashrut (Jewish dietary law) certificate because of her faith.

Pnina Conforti, 51, finally gave a sigh of relief when the Israeli Supreme Court on June 29 ruled that her belief in Jesus Christ was unrelated to her eligibility for a kashrut certificate. While bakeries and restaurants in Israel are not required to obtain such a permit, the loss of one often slows the flow of customers who observe Jewish dietary laws and eventually can destroy a business.

Conforti said that the last three years were very difficult for her and her family, as she lost nearly 70 percent of her customers. Read more at Compass Direct News

Giant Mystery Blob Moves Through Alaskan Waters (With Video)

H/T to In The Days
A mysterious glob of unknown material up to 12 miles long has appeared off Alaska's northern coast. Coast Guard Petty Officer 1st Class Terry Hasenauer says, "It's certainly biological. It's definitely not an oil product of any kind."


A giant mystery blob has been sited in the Alaskan waters.

It's big, it's black, it's gooey and it may be alive.

Giant blobs of thick, oily biological material are floating in the Arctic Ocean's Chukchi Sea north of the Bering Strait, reports the Anchorage Daily News.

"It's certainly biological," Coast Guard Petty Officer 1st Class Terry Hasenauer told the newspaper. "It's definitely not an oil product of any kind. It has no characteristics of an oil, or a hazardous substance, for that matter."
No one in the North Slope towns of Barrow and Wainwright can recall ever seeing anything like it.

Jellyfish and sea birds are getting caught up in the sticky, stinky stuff, which according to one official "has hairy strands on it."

"It's definitely, by the smell and the makeup of it, it's some sort of naturally occurring organic or otherwise marine organism," added Hasenauer. Source

Major Victory for Army Warrior Questioning Obama's Birthplace


The big news today is a major victory for a U.S. Army Reserve major, who questioined Obama's birthplace in court when the U. S. Army warrior who was scheduled to report for deployment to Afghanistan within days has had his military orders revoked because he should not be required to serve under a president who has not proven his eligibility for office.
His attorney, Orly Taitz, confirmed to WND the military has rescinded his impending deployment orders.

"We won! We won before we even arrived," she said with excitement. "It means that the military has nothing to show for Obama. It means that the military has directly responded by saying Obama is illegitimate – and they cannot fight it. Therefore, they are revoking the order!"
She continued, "They just said, 'Order revoked.' No explanation. No reasons – just revoked. Read the full story here.
This isn't going to go away. If Obama cannot prove he is a natural born citizen of the United States of America, then the obvious is true. He is not a natural born citizen of the United States of America, ineligible to be president of the United States of America and is a fraud.

And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.

For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret.

But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light; for whatsoever doth make manifest is light. Ephesians 5:11-13
The question every American and every elected official sworn to uphold the American Constitution should be asking themselves is why have the multitudes of legal cases questioning the natural born citizenship status of Obama been dismissed by every court in the land? It is quite apparent that this corruption starts at the top.

Two Iranian Christian Women In Danger of Being Forgotten


from The Persecuted Church Weblog
Two Iranian Christian women, Maryam Rustampoor (27) and Marzieh Amirizadeh (30), continue to be held in Evin prison in Iran because of their Christian faith, unfairly labelled as ‘anti-government activists’, because of the hostility of the government towards practising Christians.
In the aftermath of the political turmoil in Iran, they are now in danger of being forgotten. One church leader from Iran said, “With so many hundreds of protestors now in the prison system,
Maryam and Marzieh are likely to be forgotten.

Arrested on March 5 , 2009, the two young women have now been in prison for four months. After being in solitary confinement for three weeks in May and early June, they were then put one small cell together for about two weeks. Then, following the arrests of thousands of protestors after the disputed presidential elections, Marzieh and Maryam were moved to a larger cell to make room for new prisoners. About 600 women were brought Evin prison during the days of the protests. There is still no clarity regarding their case. In one court session in June a judge told them that he would make sure they were both executed as ‘apostates’.

Maryam and Marzieh have responded with courage, however, telling the judge to “expedite his sentence.”

“Maryam and Marzieh have demonstrated great courage and trust in God. They believe the promise of Jesus that they will be given the words to speak when they are taken before judges,” says Sam Yeghnazar, founder of Elam Ministries.

Please continue to pray for Maryam and Marzieh as they suffer in prison in Iran. Pray they will continue to experience the strengthening presence of God and that they will be a witness of the love and grace of Christ in Evin prison. We invite you to post a prayer on our Persecuted Church Prayer Wall.

Please also consider Maryam and Marzieh in prison at:

Christian Churches Under Attack in Iraq


Bombers target Baghdad churches – again Six churches were attacked within the past 24 hours, the first such attacks since the withdrawal of US combat troops from Iraqi cities.
#####
Christian churches are under attack in Baghdad, Iraq, six within the past 24 hours, and the first such attacks since the withdrawal of US combat troops from Iraqi cities.

Some of these Iraqi communities can trace their roots back to the earliest days of Christianity. Today, Christians are estimated to make up less than 3 percent of the population.
These bombings are an apparent effort to dissuade Christian Iraqis living abroad from returning. Will it work? Story here

Please keep the Iraqi Christians in your prayers as they encounter enemy attacks who are trying to wipe out Christianity in Iraq, remembering Ephesians 6:12 "For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places."

New ‘World Currency’ Presented at G-8




In presenting the 'New World Currency at the G-8 Summit, Russian President Dmitry Medvedev illustrated his call for a supranational currency to replace the dollar by pulling from his pocket a sample coin of a “united future world currency.”
“Here it is,” Medvedev told reporters today in L’Aquila, Italy, after a summit of the Group of Eight nations. “You can see it and touch it.” Story here

Satan always tries to mimick the Lord. From the coin's website, here the bottom photo shows the reverse side of the coin which pictures a "tree" resembling the Tree of Life, with five leaves symbolizing local tree species that grow in the five continents. The border inscription reads “United Future World Currency"

From the coin's website, The World In A Coin


Manifesto

  • ART. 1
    "Unity in diversity" is the foundation that drives this initiative, which started up in 1996. Its aim is to bring people together and go beyond national stereotypes. Its historical importance is even greater than its economic one; it is a goal built on faith, common hope, and the unification of cultural and spiritual roots.
  • ART. 2
    The relationship between Europe and America, and between the United States and many Countries from the five continents, is based on common cultural traditions and sustained by a parallel vision of the world. It is driven by the highest concepts of brotherhood and peace. These relations are cultivated through global dynamics whose purpose is to fulfill social, political and economic objectives, in full respect of the values and national identities that found countries' respective constitutions.
  • ART. 3
    It is therefore our wish to bring to life the project for a common currency, which has been given the provisional names, "Eurodollar/Dollaeur" (initially), "United Money", then "United Future World Currency". It would symbolize not only the economic, but also the human, social, political, and spiritual bonds between the nations of different continents that hold similar ideals.

  • ART. 4
    The common currency project is a highly important step towards bringing people together. It is a means of understanding, provides reference and reinforces different identities that share principle objectives. Competition in respective markets remains free, and the basic principles of participating countries' national identities will be safeguarded.
  • ART. 5
    We are determined to raise awareness of this project among as many people as possible in all Continents. We are focused particularly on the active involvement of young people, especially from schools. Indeed, young people represent the strongest, most concrete vehicle for spreading this initiative. They are also the potential future beneficiaries of this large step forward towards unification and the creation of a world that responds better to the requirements of the new Millennium, as it gradually breaks down social and ideological barriers.
  • ART. 6
    Renewed cultural interest in the Economy comes as a result of shifting perceptions of currency as a whole. This follows on from the debate opened by the introduction of the Euro. Through this Project, students, including from a very young age, can become familiar with basic economic issues. The latter are increasingly important in a new society of widespread wellbeing.
  • ART. 7
    A joint Committee will be selected. It will include experts from a wide variety of disciplines. Everyone will be free to offer their own contribution to the project. This committee will also form the Jury that selects the most interesting ideas, proposals and projects demanded by different initiatives underway.
  • ART. 8
    There will be an information and support campaign to coordinate working groups, committees and clubs, implemented through organizations, bodies and associations. There will be a consideration period for all contributions regarding the expansion, comparison and development of: issues and technical problems; optimizing legislative instruments and procedures; and fulfilling the obligations of the new Currency.
  • ART. 9
    Trials will be carried out at important international events, aimed at awareness, education and promotion. "United Money" currency (banknotes and coins) trials will be entrusted to the best international professionals and experts in the appropriate fields. Time will be set aside to explore technologically-advanced security and counterfeiting issues, which a future Currency will have to keep in check. This will involve the most prestigious and trustworthy public and private bodies, including universities and companies.
  • ART. 10
    It will be the responsibility of the world's future citizens and the governments they put in place to make our Project a reality. This project is driven by a firm belief in the unification and co-existence of different peoples. It aims to promote an increasingly equal distribution of the planet's resources and human intellect.

Sotomayor Supported Censoring Biblical Verse on Homosexuality



Anti-bible, racist Supreme Court judge nominees appointed by presidents such as Clinton, are one of the major causes of the sexual immorality problem with America today. Like Clinton, here again we have Obama, nominating Sonia Sotomayor, who as an appeals court judge, was involved in a case that supported censoring the biblical verse on homosexuality “Thou shalt not lie with mankind as with womankind: it is an abomination." Leviticus 18:22. Once again, the nomination by Obama of Sotomayor to serve America on the Supreme Court is appalling. This person has no business even being nominated for the top court position; it is quite obvious she does not intend to uphold the American Constitution. Read the story here.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg, another Supreme Court Justice appointed by Bill Clinton in 1993, is remembered for her association with the anti-God, anti-biblical ACLU organization who works overtime to remove anything and everything that resembles God or the Holy Bible in American society, and whose views on reproductive rights, capital punishment and affirmative action have given her a reputation for being left of center politically, has made a mockery out of the high court with her recently New York Times published statement:

  • Frankly I had thought that at the time Roe was decided, there was concern about population growth and particularly growth in populations that we don't want to have too many of. So that Roe was going to be then set up for Medicaid funding for abortion. Which some people felt would risk coercing women into having abortions when they didn't really want them. But when the court decided McRae, the case came out the other way. And then I realized that my perception of it had been altogether wrong. See story here

The Battle For Gay Marriage in Maine Not Over

The battle for gay marriage in Maine is not over, it's just beginning. Even though the law allowing for gay marriage was scheduled to take effect Sept. 12, gay marriage will be put on hold because gay marriage foes in Maine say they've collected enough signatures to stop a new law from going into effect and to force a statewide vote. Source

The good news is that wherever gay marriage has been put to a vote in a state, the homosexuals lost, and God's Word still stands, which is very significant because it reveals the masses are in favor of a godly sanctioned marriage between a man and a woman.

Bible believing Christians take note and vote out any anti-Christian state representative in favor of homosexual marriage in the coming 2010 elections who are morally bankrupting American society with this sexual sin the Lord calls abomination.

Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination. Leviticus 18:22

"But from the beginning of creation God made them male and female."Mark 10:6

"Ten Reasons Why Michael Jackson's Life and Death Matter" (Video)

While the secular media and world makes a freak show and idol out of Michael Jackson's life and death, this video, "Ten Reasons Why Michael Jackson's Life and Death Matter" speaks loudly to those who have ears to hear of the urgency of knowing Jesus Christ now before it is too late.

"For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ

For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess God.

So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God." Romans 14:10-12


Papal Message Seeks "Global Authority" For Economy

Reuters – Pope Benedict XVI makes his Angelus blessing over Saint Peter's square at the Vatican July 5, 2009.
~~~~~
When reading this story "Papal Message Seeks "Global Authority" For Economy," you have to ask yourself what does the pope, a person who is suppose to be a religious figure on the world scene have to do with making a formal statement speaking on the world's economy? Does he have his role confused?

Interesting, the pope's message
  • "there is an urgent need of a true world political authority" whose task would be "to manage the global economy; to revive economies hit by the crisis; to avoid any deterioration of the present crisis and the greater imbalances that would result" .
was released on the eve of the start of the G8 Summit in Italy and three days before the pope is due to discuss the global downturn with U.S. President Barack Obama. Yahoo News has more.

Or, could it be that the false prophet is being groomed to make his debut?.

And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast,  that the image of the beast should both speak and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed Revelation 13:15

Pro-Life Advocates Under Attack by Planned Parenthood Abortion Advocates?

Man Who Dropped Off Girlfriend for Abortion Pulls Gun on Pro-Life Advocate

Pro-Life advocates are under attack more and more with the "indirect" involvement of Planned Parenthood, the most recent being when a man dropped off his girlfriend at a Planned Parenthood abortion mill pulled a gun on a pro-life advocate because she handed him a brochure with information on alternatives to abortion. Are these attacks being organized by Planned Parenthood abortion organizers to intimidate and scare off pro-life advocates for simply peacefully bring to the attention other alternatives to abortion? It sure looks that way.

Another attack on a pro-life advocate occurred one week ago, when an abortion advocate nearly ran over a pro-life person protesting outside a local Planned Parenthood abortion center with his vehicle. Life News.com has this story.

Continue to pray for the lives of the unborn and for the courageous souls who have brought the hideous crime of the barbaric act of murdering of the unborn to the attention of the public's eye which has saved multitudes of baby's lives.

The Price of Freedom


Jesus paid the price of freedom through His shed blood on the cross of calvary. Our greatest freedom is not of a political natue, but spiritual. By Jesus' life, suffering and death on the cross, Jesus freed us from God's eternal wrath over our sin. This 4th of July, let Americans everywhere give honor to America's Judeo-Christian Heritage and remember that Christ is the answer for true freedom is found only in knowing Him as America's early founders affirmed. Jesus loves us all and has freed us from our sins and given us power over our sins and satan by his blood Revelation 1:5.

THE spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the broken-hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound; Isaiah 61:1

If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed. John 8:36

India Overturns Old Law Banning Homosexuality

It would be quite discouraging to read today's headlines such as this "India Overturns 148-Year-Old Law Banning Homosexuality" and learn of the fact that homosexuals are gaining victory after victory all around the world in forcing their immoral lifestyle upon the rest of society through the court system, except for the fact that Jesus, looking ahead in time, told us that His return would be as in the days of Lot in Luke's Gospel Chapter 17, and these days we are living in are most assuredly likened to the days of Lot Jesus is talking about.

Jesus said "Likewise as it was also in the days of Lot: They ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built." "but on the day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all."28,29

Just what were the days of Lot like that brought about God's judgment?

Genesis 13:13 tells us that “But the men of Sodom were exceedingly wicked and sinful against the LORD".

And what was the sin of the men of Sodom that the Lord destroyed them all?

Like today, complete disregard for God's Word was rampant as it concerns homosexuality and adultery. The population of Sodom were engaged in whatever sexual sin their heart desired, with lawlessness prevailing and everyone doing whatever they pleased. This sexual behaviour that the Lord calls sinful was considered the norm in society then, as it is now.

While this certainly is not the type of news that one looks forward to because this sinful world is headed for severe judgment by God, those of us who believe God's Word can take assurance in knowing that Christ's return is very near according to what Jesus has told us because we are living in the days of Lot.

Even as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengence of eternal fire. Jude 1:7

Did Michael Jackson Repent Before He Died?

And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment. Hebrews 9:27

Gospel singer, Andrae Crouch met with Michael Jackson just weeks before he died. Did Michael repent and accept Christ before he died? Only God knows Michael's heart and if the prayers said before Michael by Andrae Crouch took root.
  • The Crouch spokesman said: "He did NOT reject Jesus or the prayer when (we) prayed, and gladly joined in prayer. He usually doesn't touch anybody, but he touched them, and held their hands in a circle as they sang and prayed. There was NO actual 'sinners prayer' however, but they did talk and pray about Jesus and the anointing of the Holy Spirit. They also told him, 'Michael, we consider you as our son,' and he said, 'Yes, yes, yes' and gave him his latest music on a CD, and he told him, 'Andrae I trust you with this,' and gave him CDs of 2 songs ... unpublished, beautiful music."
