O England....

Oh England, how we sorrow for you! What has happened? We remember your past and the greatness of the Christian witnesses that have come out of you! Who can forget John Wesley, and William Booth, George Whitefield, and Charle H Spurgeon! But now things have changed! The Muslims and Sikhs and Hindu's and Carribean Cultural Centers and trying to rule over you. The bride of Christ is be converted into pubs and bars! BUT WHY?

It doesn't have to be that way. You Christians can rise up and change the world. You can win back England! You can take back your land for Jesus Christ. Remember these words:

"And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it." (Matt 16:18)

Have faith my dear friends. You can do it!

"...3who through faith conquered kingdoms, administered justice, and gained what was promised; who shut the mouths of lions, 34quenched the fury of the flames, and escaped the edge of the sword; whose weakness was turned to strength; and who became powerful in battle and routed foreign armies. 35Women received back their dead, raised to life again. Others were tortured and refused to be released, so that they might gain a better resurrection. 36Some faced jeers and flogging, while still others were chained and put in prison. 37They were stoned[f]; they were sawed in two; they were put to death by the sword. They went about in sheepskins and goatskins, destitute, persecuted and mistreated— 38the world was not worthy of them. They wandered in deserts and mountains, and in caves and holes in the ground.

39These were all commended for their faith, yet none of them received what had been promised. 40God had planned something better for us so that only together with us would they be made perfect." (Matthew 11:3-40)

We are behind you and we know that the battle isn't over yet while there is still a today. Keep pressing on! The battle belongs to the Lord (1Samuel 17:47). Hope is not lost!
