Clinton's Earthquake Relief Church Talk
NOTE: This church is a forerunner of what faith-based churches
are going to look like. Steve Hill was advertised as others like
him who teach Revival.
Charisma Magazine - February 27, 2001 - CLINTON SPEAKS AT
CHURCH FOR EARTHQUAKE RELIEF
Former President Bill Clinton will be the guest speaker at a
California church fund-raising effort for the victims of the
recent earthquake in Gujarat, India. Clinton is to deliver the
keynote address this Friday at the Jubilee Christian Center in
San Jose.
New Age guru Deepak Chopra, featured by Larry King,
as author of a new book: How To Know God, will also speak at
the event, which will feature music by M.C. Hammer, who is
a pastor at the church. Senior pastor Dick Bernal hopes that
together with proceeds from a similar event earlier this month,
the evening would raise around $3 million toward disaster relief
needs. "We want to do what we can to help the people who
have been displaced, and the orphans and the widows," said
Bernal, who visited the country this month with Hammer for a
series of evangelistic meetings.
The fund-raiser is being supported by members of the Indian-American
community in the Silicon Valley area. Donations are going to
UCA for India, a nonprofit organization supported by churches,
charities, community and civic organizations. "This occasion
not only marks the beginning of the road to recovery for India,
but also demonstrates how the greater Bay Area can get behind
and support people in need," said Kailash Joshi, president
of the group that founded UCA.

Example of a Type of Future Faith-Based Church
What we have going here is Mormonism. I recognize the game.
LDS members get to participate in their list of businesses and
services for advantageouss prices. The businesses and services
are members of the church. You will seldom see a Mormon in the
usual stores. They patronize their own membership if at all possible.
Mormons create peer pressure on those who do not comply with
these expectations. Do you realize what the implications of this
type of system are? No wonder Senator Ashcroft wanted "joining
the church" to enjoy the services as part of the law "Charitable
Choice." Secular businesses are going to find themselves
up a creek with half the country in the Republican camp, the
religious right. Below is just a partial list of what was on
this Jubilee Christian Church's website. Click on the popup box
and see the list. Notice the list, like Mormons, only tithing
members get to participate in this. The church is dictating to
businesses how to conduct themselves and patrons how to be good
little boys and girls.
