The Christmas Truce - 100 Years Ago

THE FAILURE OF ATHEISM and THE TRIUMPH OF FAITH IN RUSSIA

Atheism was the official doctrine of the Soviet Union. Throughout the history of the Soviet Union, Communist authorities vigorously enforced the ideology of Marxism/Leninism and violently persecuted Christianity.

Victory Over TV Porn!
Yesterday (Monday, 3 November 2014), in the Western Cape High Court, Mr Justice Bozalek, struck down the licence granted by ICASA in April 2013 to On Digital Media (formerly Top TV) permitting them to broadcast 3 pornographic TV channels.

The Justice Alliance of South Africa (JASA) and its 2 co-applicants, Cause for Justice and Doctors for Life (DFL), were awarded their costs against both ICASA and ODM.

The effect of the judgment is that broadcasting of the porn channels must cease forthwith as from today.

ODM could still appeal the decision, so please continue to pray.

The Christian Action Network presented submissions at both ICASA hearings on Top TV’s licence (the first time ICASA refused to grant Top TV a licence, the second time they renegaded and granted them the licence, prompting JASA, Doctors for Life and others to launch this case in the High Court).

Thank you for praying!
