The Lord Prayer. By Michael Smith.
.
There will always be those who choose not to believe and are threatened by us who choose Christ. For those who choose not, I pray for their souls and for Christ to give them understanding!!!!!
Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened."
(Matthew 7:7-8)
The Lord Prayer.
Our Father, which art in heaven
Hallowed be Thy name
Our Father, which art in heaven
Hallowed be Thy name
Thy kingdom come
Thy will be done
On earth as it is in heaven
Our Father, which art in heaven
Hallowed be Thy name
Hallowed be Thy name
Our father, which art in heaven
Our father
Hallowed be thy name
Hallowed be thy name
Thy kingdom come
Thy will be done
On earth as it is in heaven
Give us this day
Our daily bread
And forgive us our debts
As we forgive our debtors
And lead us not into temptation
But deliver us, deliver us from evil

Cause My Jesus.
If Ephesians says to Imitate Christ.
Why do you look so much like the World? Cause Jesus
He spent his time with thieves and Liars
He loved the poor and accosted the Arrogant
So which one do you want to be?

I didn't came here to break the Law. I came because I need to feed my childrens

Know days the Immigration Law goes beyond morality and decency because they keep families divided, encourage the exploitation of migrants by employers and enable abuse by Anti Immigrants groups and human traffickers.
The bishop in the nation's most heavily Roman Catholic state called on U.S. immigration authorities to stop arresting Undocumented immigrants in mass sweeps in Rhode Island and allow federal agents not to participate if they feel the raids violate Christian teachings.
Bishop Thomas J. Tobin, head of the Diocese of Providence, made the request in a letter to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Boston that was published on the diocese's Web site today.
His letter comes during a heated debate over Undocumented immigration in Rhode Island, where authorities recently raided six Rhode Island courthouses and arrested 31 people, mainly Hispanic immigrants who are overwhelmingly Catholic. In a separate raid, ICE agents apprehended 42 suspected Undocumented immigrants in Newport and Middletown.
The letter, signed by 15 priests, urges ICE agents to consider the morality of their actions.
"If their discernment leads them to the conclusion that they cannot participate in such raids in good conscience, we urge them not to do so. If ICE agents refuse to participate in immigration raids in conformity with their faith and conscience, we urge the Federal Government to fully respect the well-founded principles of conscientious objection," the letter said.
In an interview with a Journal reporter today, Tobin said he had invited the pastors to meet about three weeks ago after hearing anecdotally from parishes around the state that many Hispanics were afraid to leave their homes to attend Mass, were shopping at night for fear of being picked up and were not enrolling in school their children, who are American citizens.
"Now when we get involved in that area -- the ability to practice their faith -- that becomes a concern for me right away,'' Tobin said.
He continued that the diocese recognized that some immigrants are here illegally. "But keep in mind many of them are here because the system itself is broken. We've gone two decades... with this current immigration policy that has enabled and allowed this situation to develop.
"People who came here did not come here with the express purpose of breaking the law. They came to make a living for themselves and their families and the government has allowed that to happen ... because of the lax interpretation of immigration laws and the fact that there hasn't been enforcement.''
He added, "I know for sure what Jesus would not do. He would not sweep into a community, gather up large groups of people, separate family members, one from another and deport them to another country. I know for sure he would not do that.''
Later today, ICE spokeswoman Paula Grenier said of Tobin's letter:
"The men and women of ICE have sworn an oath to uphold the laws of our nation and it is a duty and responsibility we take seriously. While we fully intend to continue to enforce the law, I would stress that we do so professionally and with an acute awareness of the impact that enforcement has on the individuals we encounter.
"While we have great respect for Bishop Tobin and his colleagues, we believe their congregations and communities would be better served by helping individuals to comply with the law or working to change those laws rather than asking law enforcement agents not to enforce it."
Earlier this year, Governor Carcieri issued an executive order aimed at cracking down on Undocumented immigration. He said he did so because the federal government has dropped the ball on immigration reform and left state taxpayers to pick up what he said are the considerable costs of Undocumented immigration.
Several R.I. religious leaders decried that order, including Tobin, and asked Carcieri to reconsider it, saying it threatened to ignite widespread vitriol against immigrant communities.
Today, Tobin also said, "I think we need to work toward good laws. But in the meantime, treat people decently.''
Roman Catholic and other faith leaders have repeatedly criticized immigration raids that target migrant workers as opposed to Undocumented immigrants who are violent or commit crimes.

Why some Immigration systems are Inhumane?

Two Zimbabwean pastors were deported last Friday after they were declared Prohibited Immigrants by the government.
Chris Chissana of Christ Embassy and Edmore Chaka of the Abundant Life Ministries were repatriated together with University of Botswana media studies lecturer Ceasar Zvayi (see separate story on Zvayi). Christ Embassy has been Botswana fastest growing Pentecostal Church. Spotting a maroon suit and s-curl hairstyle, the stylish Chissana looked shocked on Friday as he was being loaded in a police van. His voice was shaking as he said:
"I do not know what is happening. I cannot even explain it myself. What do you do when you are just picked up from your house... it happened so fast, I do not even know what I have done, I had no chance to explain anything," he said just before he boarded the van. Sympathetic members of Chissana's church, who waited for him at the Moonlight Lodge where the state agents had gone to collect Zvayi's belongings, gave him P200 to buy drinks along the way. The Monitor understands that Chissana is married to a Motswana with whom he has children.
Chissana's Christ Embassy Church has become one Gaborone's busiest spot, attracting people from all walks of life. Popular gospel musicians such as Mathews Matsetse, Ernest Seakgosing and to club DJs like DJ Bax have been there. The church attracts a multi-racial crowd, especially Nigerians.
In Gaborone, the Block 8 branch of the church commands a following of over 1,500 people, while the BBS branch has about 600 people. In a less than five years, the church has established more than 15 branches all over the country. Attempts to talk to the church elders in Gaborone after the deportation of their head were unsuccessful on Saturday. First an elder called Mark, said he would grant an interview after 4pm, as the church elders and the pastor's wife, must meet first. "By 4pm, we will have met and discussed the issue, as you know it happened so suddenly, only yesterday (Friday), so people are still in shock. I also don't want to be quoted saying anything about the matter until we have adopted a stand," he said. He never gave an interview and after 4pm, a different pastor called Ade came and promised to grant an interview later. He did not keep the promise despite several attempts to reach him. The Monitor has since established that the multitudes that gathered for Saturday service at the Block 8 branch were not informed about their pastor's deportation. They were encouraged to be strong in faith, according to a devout member who attended the service.
Christ Embassy in Botswana has been on the spotlight for a while. The Director of Civil and National Registration, Mabuse Pule, has in the past made it clear they are investigating the church. He said the church is not registered. Its application to register as a church was turned down in 2005 because it did not meet certain requirements.
Botswana has registered 923 churches since 1973. However the mushrooming of churches, especially by foreign nationals, has been a cause for concern for politicians.
Christ Embassy was started by controversial Nigerian preacher and healer Pastor Chris Oyakhilome. The pastor has been accused by a member of the church in South Africa of staging miracle-healing sessions.
South African newspaper, Sowetan has reported that he has been hiring people to pretend to be sick and disabled. The pretenders are then 'healed' during his television shows and public prayer meetings.
Meanwhile, on the day of the deportation, the thin looking Chaka of the Abundant Life Ministries wore a red shirt. He has been in the news for sometime, especially after he told his followers taking ARV drugs to discontinue and surrender them to him.

Stop the Deportation of 'Tara Aryan' from U.K.
Tara Aryan is an Iranian refugee to the UK who converted to Christianity last year. The home office is trying to deport her to Iran. If they are sucessful she could face imprisonment or death for 'abandoning Islam'.
Tara has lived in Brighton for two years before being detained at Yarl's Wood Removal Centre. She was scheduled to be deported on Friday 13th June on a BMI flight from Heathrow. She was transferred to the airport but the removal was deferred after a judicial review was lodged by her solicitor. Tara is now detained again at Yarl's Wood
Tara was baptised last year at a church in Brighton. This means that under Iranian law she could face imprisonment or death for abandoning Islam and converting to Christianity.
Tara entered the UK in 2006 and made an asylum claim but was refused. She tried to make a fresh claim but the Home Office refused to consider it.
Although the immediate risk of deportation has passed pending the results of Tara's Judicial Review she is still at risk if the hearing does not go well.

Christian leaders appeal for end to xenophobic attacks to Immigrants in South Africa.
The Council of Zimbabwean Christian leaders in the UK has called for “rapid and effective measures” from the South African Government to curb the xenophobic attacks on Zimbabweans and other African migrants there.
Dozens of migrants were killed and tens of thousands more sought refuge in makeshift shelters after a wave of xenophobic attacks broke out on May 11.
The Council of Zimbabwean Christian Leaders in the UK said it was “disturbed” by the violence against the migrants in Johannesburg and other cities in South Africa, mostly Zimbabweans who had fled to the country in a bid to escape the “brutality and crisis of governance” in Zimbabwe.
“We are compelled to express our sorrow at this exacerbation of their plight and outrage at the criminal assault on their humanity, by citizens of a country which only recently sought refuge and solidarity from its neighbours,” a statement from the Council read.
“Need we remind them that their current leaders Thabo Mbeki, Jacob Zuma, and their Umkhonto Wesizwe comrades (members of the military wing of the African National Congress that fought against apartheid) were themselves refugees in SADC (South African Development Community) countries where they were welcomed, protected, trained and resourced often at risk to the host countries?
“Today, those who enjoy their freedom on the back of our people's sacrifices are seen to have failed to support our people in their greatest hour of need.”
The South African Government has come under fire for its handling of the attacks, with aid agencies and UN officials expressing shock at the conditions in the refugee shelters. They say that most of the blankets, clothes, food and medical supplies distributed to refugees so far have come from NGOs and individual donations, with very little coming from the South African Government.
Mbeki, whose pro-business policies have been blamed by some for the violence, has condemned the attacks but held back from visiting the affected townships or shelters.
The Council urged Mbeki to enlist the help of the UNHCR in implementing a “humane policy” to protect refugees and condemn “clearly and unequivocally” the attacks, as well as bring the perpetrators to justice.
The Council concluded: “This highlights the need for the South African Government to revisit its foreign policy towards the Zimbabwean conflict and to demonstrate to its people that it is doing all in its power to resolve the political impasse in our country

Air Force sued for Religious Intolerance.
A New Mexico man sued the Air Force on Thursday, claiming Air Force Academy senior officers and cadets illegally imposed Christianity on others at the school.
The suit was filed in federal court by Mikey Weinstein, an academy graduate and outspoken critic of the school's handling of religion.
Weinstein claims that evangelical Christians at the school have coerced attendance at religious services and prayers at official events, among other things.
There have been complaints at the academy that a Jewish cadet was told the Holocaust was revenge for the death of Jesus and that another Jew was called a Christ killer by a fellow cadet. A banner in the football team's locker room read: "I am a Christian first and last ... I am a member of Team Jesus Christ."
