This was among the e-mails awaiting my perusal this morning. I should comment that the same issue has been raised considerably on various forums in recent weeks and months…

“Johnny Robertson and James Oldfield can’t be the real church of Christ because they aren’t obedient to Romans 16:16.”

The writer is of course referring to local cultist Johnny Robertson and his lackey/second cousin James Oldfield, the leaders of what they proclaim is the “Church of Christ” (no relation to the real Churches of Christ). The two men who have been harassing the legitimate churches in this area, and even committing slander against some (like when Johnny Robertson accused one church in Kernersville, without evidence, of child pornography).

It was thirty years ago today – November 18th, 1978 – that the Jonestown Massacre occurred at the People’s Temple Agricultural Project near Kaituma, Guyana.

Jones then ordered his faithful to drink cyanide-laced fruit drink. Many families used syringes to squirt the deadly poison into the mouths of infants, before they themselves ingested the fatal fluid.
