AUSTRALIA CAN EXPECT GOD’S JUDGEMENT TO ESCALATE

The 2025 Sydney Mardi Gras has crossed a line that cannot be ignored. Among its numerous controversial moments, a performer uploaded an image during the event of themselves impaling a depiction of Jesus Christ —an intentional and public act of desecration meant to mock the Christian faith. This spectacle not only targets Christianity in a way that would be unthinkable for other religions, but it also exposes the inconsistency of claims that the event promotes respect and dignity for all. At the same time, Mardi Gras continues to expose children to explicit adult content, normalising sexual fetishes and radical gender ideologies under the guise of inclusivity and celebration. Despite these concerns, the festival continues to receive significant financial support from hardworking Australian taxpayers. Many Australians are increasingly alarmed by the growing disconnect between public funding priorities and the values held by families across the nation.

The Sydney Mardi Gras, which claims to champion inclusivity and respect, regularly demonstrates open hostility toward Christian beliefs while demanding millions of dollars in public subsidies. While private organisations have every right to fund whatever expressions they choose, it is entirely inappropriate for taxpayer resources to be used to support an event that mocks the faith of nearly half the population. The Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras has received substantial taxpayer funding despite a history of financial mismanagement: $1.1 million: NSW Government “recovery package” (2024), $1.6 million: City of Sydney grant (2024-2027), $2.25 million+: Cumulative City of Sydney contributions since 2012, $550,000: Emergency bailout from City of Sydney (March 2024), diverting resources from vulnerable families, $250,000: Free municipal venue (September 2024), while faith-based and family support groups struggle to secure space.

The time for action is now. The Australian Christian Lobby encourages all Christians to sign a petition to demand the NSW Government and City of Sydney cut all public funding for the Sydney Mardi Gras: www.acl.org.au/campaigns/pet-nsw-mardi-gras/

I have signed the petition; make sure you do and circulate this message to your family, friends and whosoever.

SPIRITUAL COLLAPSE OF CHRISTIANITY IN THE U.S.A.

George Barna, director of research at Arizona Christian University’s Cultural Research Center, released new data earlier this month that “reveals the limitations of Christian evangelicalism in American society.” The events from recent years have caused “millions of Americans to realize just how depraved American society has become,” the report stated. “Corrupt politicians, dishonest journalists and media outlets, broken social institutions, immoral religious leaders, unconstitutional government programs and policies, and more, have generated non-stop headlines highlighting the decadence of American society and the demise of the United States.”

It went on to contend that “The depth of the depravity is shocking” and that it’s “indisputable” that the “decline is a direct result of the spiritual collapse of Christianity in the nation” ­— particularly how the evangelical community has changed over time. According to Barna, not only are there fewer evangelicals than some reports have claimed there to be, but many of them “are far less biblical in their thinking … and tend to vote in far fewer numbers than expected.”

Even when you define them theologically as evangelicals, they’re not buying into what the Bible teaches and they’re not living it out.” Barna contended that this comes in conflict with the heart of what evangelicalism is supposed to do.

We should not be surprised as Jesus told us that many Christians would fall away in the time before He returns to restore righteousness and usher in His much prophesied Millennial Kingdom. The next 1000 years when Jesus will rule the nations from a newly constructed Jerusalem. Israel the nation God established for His purposes will finally fulfill its destiny.

And then many will fall away, betray one another, and hate one another. And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. And because lawlessness will be increased the love of many will grow cold.” Matthew 24:10-12
