Justifying Jew Hatred: ‘Judicial Activism’ Is On Display In Australia

Regardless of what the judiciary says, one thing is for sure—God views the Jewish nation, the Jewish people and the land of Israel as inextricably linked. Do we agree with everything the State of Israel does? Of course not. But people who purposefully or unwittingly fan the flame of antisemitism are caught in Satan’s antisemitic trap. In Romans 11:1 the apostle Paul asks a simple question: "I say then, has God cast away His people?" The answer that he gives is a verbal fence which guards the unthinkable: "Certainly not!" In Hebrew, the answer is rendered “chalilah.” Chalilah is more than a phrase. It is a theological alarm bell, warning the reader to bring their thoughts back into alignment with God’s plan and purposes.

Australia Cannot Claim To Oppose Antisemitism While Undermining Israel’s Right To Self-defense

Anthony Albanese and Penny Wong cannot claim to oppose antisemitism while simultaneously undermining Israel’s right to self-defense and security. Because if they continue down this pathway, what we have is a ruling Federal Government which has effectively signaled to the Jewish people that their history, their faith, their land, their culture and their future are disposable. And that puts our Australian Government at direct odds with the true and living God who promised Israel a glorious future.

Why Is An Australian State Government Funding The Mockery Of Christianity? 

What makes this particularly concerning is the venue’s acknowledgement of support through the NSW Government body, Create NSW. Christians rightly expect that taxpayer money should not be used to support projects that many believers reasonably regard as ridiculing their faith. Whether Australians agree with the events or not, there is a legitimate public question: should government funding be connected to projects that commercialise and mock the sacred beliefs of Australia’s largest faith community?

New Australian Bill Seeks To Provide Rights To A Child That Survives Abortion, But Will It Make It Past Anti-Life Activists?

Although the practice of abortion itself is a grievous sin, what is even more heartbreaking is to hear the stories of babies who have survived abortion, only to be left to die. In Australia, there is no single federal law specifically regulating medical care for infants born alive after an abortion. However, despite considerable opposition from politicians and medical bodies, a parliamentary bill will soon be introduced to the House of Representatives which aims to correct this. It is appropriately called the Human Rights (Children Born Alive Protection) Bill 2026.

Demonizing The Jewish State: Why Australia’s Attempts To Tackle Antisemitism Are Falling Disturbingly Short

Many attempt to mask their antisemitism by claiming that anti-Zionism is merely impassioned criticism of a nation that just happens to be Jewish. By claiming Zionism is a “modern colonial ideology” they attempt to legitimise Palestinian ownership of the land at the expense of Jewish self-determination in the ancestral Jewish homeland. The simple equation in the anti-Zionist mind is that if Zionism is indeed colonial, then the State of Israel is illegitimate. But what most people refuse to accept is that the Jewish people do not just have a legal and historical right to the land, they have a biblical claim to it as their national homeland as well.    

Could The Private Prayers Of Australians Now Result In A Knock On The Door From The Government?

Through the use of targeted examples, overreach and ambiguously drafted legislation and booklets, Victorian faith leaders and parents now find themselves the victims of arbitrary limitations that permit the government a place at the dinner table of families that need to have important discussions regarding sexual orientation and gender identity. A conversation which, if led by the clear teachings of the Bible, will only lead to one conclusion. Although the Victorian Government has attempted to grant clear concessions to parents to raise their children according to Biblical values, the undeniable conclusion is that there are limitations as to what the government will accept.

A Wake-Up Call: Report Finds That Australian Christians Are Opting For Silence Over Societal Pushback

Over the past few years, I have spoken with countless believers who feel increasingly hesitant to express their faith openly. Teachers are unsure what they can say in the classroom. Healthcare workers worry about the consequences of acting according to their conscience. Employees feel pressure to keep their beliefs private in the workplace. Parents are concerned about the values being promoted in schools and public institutions. Perhaps the most significant finding is not that Christians are facing challenges. Jesus told us to expect opposition. Rather, it is that many believers are quietly withdrawing from public life. They are self-censoring.

‘Increasingly Secular, Coercive, And Hostile’: Australian Christians Highlight A Growing Antagonism Toward Christianity

“God is still sovereign, still calling people to Himself, and still able to do immeasurably more than we ask or imagine. The cultural battles matter—Christians must engage. But we fight not as those who have only earthly weapons. We contend, knowing that the Gospel remains ‘the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes,’” she said, quoting Romans 1:16. “Ultimately, the tide will turn not merely through better policies or political victories, but through faithful witness, fervent prayer and the transforming power of Christ at work in human hearts.”

Australian Broadcasting Corp. Backs Away From Radical Partnerships… That Should Have Never Existed

For a national broadcaster, these relationships raised obvious concerns from the outset, and they should not have been allowed to continue for as long as they did.  The ABC was paying to be part of organisations that also assessed and ranked it, in some cases linking that to its editorial output. This is a clear conflict and not acceptable for a publicly funded broadcaster.

The Claim That ‘Gender Treatments Save Lives’ Stands In Direct Contradiction To The Evidence

The mother of a girl who tried to become a boy told me that the doctor said to her when she opposed the treatment, ‘Would you rather a dead daughter or a live son?’ Parents across Australia have been told the same thing when sharing their concerns regarding their child’s desired gender treatment. They have been manipulated into believing that they have no real choice.

A Revealing Ideological Bias: Australia Grants Special Status To Radical Anti-Christian Lobby Group

Equality Australia actively campaigns against religious freedom because they think that a biblical worldview on human sexuality is discriminatory. They have urged the removal of religious exemptions in anti-discrimination laws, arguing that these exemptions protect the discriminators. It is their view that the discriminators are Christians who believe in marriage between a male and a female, and Christian schools who teach this biblical truth.  

Poll Finds 57 Per Cent Of Victorians Are Opposed To Children Being Taught About Gender Ideology

We’re often told that concerns about gender ideology in schools come from a small minority of parents. The data tells a very different story. We recently commissioned research surveying 1,500 Victorians, and the results are clear. A majority of parents are not comfortable with the direction of gender-related teaching in schools.

Why Proposed Anti-Discrimination Changes In Australia Matter for Christian Schools 

In the past month, a renewed push from MP Alex Greenwich, Equality Australia, and the Independent Education Union has intensified calls for an overhaul of New South Wales’ anti-discrimination laws. Their core objective is clear: the removal of longstanding religious exemptions that allow Christian schools to operate effectively as, well, Christian schools. 

Iranian Women’s Soccer Players Granted Asylum In Australia After Anthem Protest

Australia has granted humanitarian visas to five Iranian women’s soccer players who sought asylum amid fears for their safety if they returned to the Islamic Republic, authorities confirmed.

New Zealand War-Game Involves Training Scenario, Connecting ‘Evangelical Christians’ To Extremism And Terrorism

These training scenarios continue to feed into the narrative that conservative Christians are an armed, angry, and apocalyptic gang who need to be treated like every other terrorist organisation. The reality is that underpinning the constant assault on Christianity is the fact that globalists seek to advance the narrative that Christianity is intolerant of global ideas because patriotism is divisive.

Mother Fights Australia’s Department Of Education After Witnessing The Sexualization Of Children First Hand

It is an ideologically fueled approach to sex education built on the idea that children are sexual beings from birth and have independent “sexual rights,” Clarke added—a framework that directly violates parents’ universally recognized human right to guide the moral education of their children. 

The State Of Australia’s Morality Is Literally Being Flushed Down The Toilet

The attempt to socially re-engineer society into a genderless ‘safe’ place has reached a new low, and it is by no means safe. For the majority of Aussies, if something doesn’t personally affect them, they don’t care. But we must care because there are casualties to this agenda. The new casualties will be victims of assault in shared public toilets. Yes, that’s right. The de-gendering of society has reached a new low.

Prison Assault Exposes Failures Of The Self-ID Law In Australian State

The incident exposes the consequences of policies that prioritise gender identity over biological sex in high-risk custodial settings. Women in prison cannot choose their accommodation. They cannot leave when they feel unsafe. Their protection rests entirely with the state.

Death Of Baby Samuel Shows Why Parliament Must Be Allowed To Speak

This is an unprecedented gag order. Parliament exists to discuss and debate laws — especially laws that involve life and death. When something this serious happens, Parliament should be asking questions, not being told to stay silent.

The Spiritual Landscape Of Australia Has Been Laid Bare, And It Is Not A Pretty Sight

The Sydney protest, held on 9 February 2026, contained the usual elements: antisemitism, Palestinian flags, disgusting signs, mob mentality, and lawless behaviour. The latest jingle was also on display, with one protestor holding up a sign reading: “From the river to the sea, Herzog to the ICC.” The ICC is obviously a reference to the International Criminal Court, with protestors continuing to maintain that Israeli officials should be prosecuted for war crimes. Roundly criticised for her appearance at the protest was the 2021 Australian of the Year, Grace Tame.

Are Jewish Patients Safe In Australian Hospitals?

Have you ever been in a hospital as a patient? I am sure that most of you have. When being admitted, you are required to provide important details such as your name and your chosen faith. But what if you were taken to a hospital in a democratic Western country and the hospital administrators decided to give you a different name and redact details of your faith without your consent? Would you be upset? If the answer is no, then picture this: what if you were Jewish and the hospital changed your name and redacted your Jewish identity without your consent? Now, you might be thinking that would never happen in a Western nation in the modern day. Well, it just did. In Australia.

New Australian Bill Will Do Little To Address The Root Cause Of Antisemitism

In attempting to deal with hate offences, the new laws would apply broadly to speech, symbols, gestures, and online content which incites hatred towards a person or group of people because of their race, colour, or national or ethnic origin. The trouble is, Mr Albanese may be acting quickly, but many are concerned that he is not acting properly, particularly when it comes to ensuring the laws are appropriately designed and do not unfairly reduce freedom of speech.

As Australia Pushes Christian Voices Out Of Public Debate, The Nation Is Reaching A Moral Flashpoint

Australia is reaching a moral flashpoint. Across the nation, laws governing life, death, family, sexuality, and religious expression are shifting at breakneck speed. The country is abandoning its ethical foundations and trampling on long-held freedoms. Legislation is increasingly secular, increasingly coercive, and increasingly hostile to the values that once guided public life. The result is an unprecedented assault on human dignity—and a growing attempt to push Christian voices out of public debate.

It Didn’t Take Long For Australia’s Pro-Palestine Mob To Re-emerge With Violent Rhetoric

Well, that didn’t take long.  After what seemed like a millisecond of national unity against antisemitism in the wake of the Bondi massacre, people want to take to the streets again in order to “Free Palestine.” Although their usual talking points of genocide and mass starvation still remain at the core of their protests, the pro-Palestine mob seems to have become incensed at the decision by Prime Minister Anthony Albanese to invite Israeli President Isaac Herzog to visit Australia.  

With No Regard For Biological Realities, Australia’s National Sanity Is Broken

Did you know Australia no longer has a biological definition of ‘man’ and ‘woman’ in federal law? No wonder our nation is confused. This isn’t an abstract legal glitch. It’s a cultural earthquake and we’re all living in the aftershocks. When the law deletes biological reality, it reflects something deeper: a nation rejecting God and rejecting truth.

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese Has Been Failing Australia’s Jewish Community For 25 Years

The Australian Jewish News reported that Mr Albanese had also been at a Canberra rally in 2000, referring to him as a “pro-Palestinian Labor MP.” Sadly, as it is now, so it was then. Synagogues were vandalised in both Sydney and Canberra (the locations of the two rallies), and Jewish families were advised to avoid public displays of faith.   Where did Australia go wrong? In part, 25 years ago. Anthony Albanese failed Australia’s Jewish community in 2000, and he failed them again in 2025. By God’s mercy, may this be the last of his failures.

Canada Raises Alarm Bells After Telling Chaplains Not To Talk About God In Public, Restricting ‘Religious Specific’ Speech

Canada’s government has raised alarms by instructing military chaplains that they may offer “inclusive” spiritual reflections at public events but cannot pray or mention God. The personnel instruction released July 29 by the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) does not apply to funerals or voluntary worship services, but does apply to all other public events, including military parades, change of command ceremonies, commissioning of ships and historical commemorations.

How Putin Is Working To Erase Church In Ukraine, Twist Christianity In Service To The State

During my visit to Ukraine, Denys Uliutin, Minister of Social Policy, Family and Unity, briefed me on Russia’s systematic attacks on Ukraine’s religious heritage, damaging or destroying hundreds of religious structures, a pattern documented by the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom. Ukrainian officials have also documented 67 religious leaders and clergy killed or who died as a result of torture in occupied territories.

Franklin Graham Applauds Trump Administration’s Pressure On China, Securing Release Of Jailed Pastor

In a Facebook post Tuesday, Franklin Graham thanked President Donald Trump for his role in the release of imprisoned Christian pastor Ezra Jin Mingri—founder of an underground church in China—who had been detained for 266 days. Jin, 57, was released and reunited with his wife and daughter in Los Angeles Friday, roughly two months after Trump pressed Chinese President Xi Jinping to free him during a U.S.-China summit in Beijing. Jin was arrested Oct. 11 after Chinese officials raided his home in Beihai, Guangxi Province, the previous evening and conducted an all-night search. He was charged with “illegally using information networks,” according to The New York Times.

Nigerian Court Rules Religious Police Cannot Arrest Christian Woman for Converting from Islam

A Federal High Court in northern Nigeria has ruled that Islamic religious police have no authority to arrest a young woman over her conversion from Islam to Christianity, in a judgment that curbs the reach of Sharia enforcement units operating in northern Nigeria. The ruling came in the case of Sarah*, now 22, who fled her family home in Kano State in 2025 after suffering abuse from her elder siblings, who were also attempting to force her into marriage against her wishes. (Sarah’s parents had died years prior.) Sarah took refuge with a Christian family, the Abaras, and while living with them, converted to Christianity herself.

Nicaragua Ends Elections As Christians Face Growing Pressure

Outspoken Christians and other government critics are expected to face mounting pressure after Nicaragua’s long-serving President Daniel Ortega said the Central American nation will no longer hold elections, eliminating any possibility of an electoral challenge when his current term ends next year and further consolidating the power he shares with his wife, Rosario Murillo.

Australia’s Leadership Didn’t Just Fail To Combat Antisemitism, They Helped Fuel It

While the global spotlight on Australia is forcing the government to take long-overdue action to better protect the Jewish Community, the problem may be much more difficult to confront than leaders realize. Dean Dwyer underscored that his country and other Western nations remain "blind to the true source of antisemitism," and as a result, also blind to the cure.

In A Grief Stricken Australia, A Question Swirls: Why Were All The Warnings Ignored?

By now, I am sure you are all aware of the terrorist act perpetrated against Sydney’s Jewish community on the first night of Hanukkah in the iconic Sydney suburb of Bondi Beach. The warnings issued by Australia’s Jewish community since October 7 had largely been ignored by our ruling class. Now, we see the heartbreaking result of ignoring those warnings. Jewish men, women and children are dead, Jewish shops intend to close permanently for security reasons, and an entire community is in mourning. 

Chaplains Comfort Sydney Community Rocked by Mass Shooting

“While this community is experiencing grief and loss that is unfathomable, our chaplains are there in Bondi Beach to let them know they are not alone—that the hope and peace of God can bring them through these dark days,” said Josh Holland, vice president of BG-RRT Global.

The Consequence Of A Government And A Culture That Has Let Antisemitism Run Amok

Sadly, this is the consequence of a government and a culture that has let antisemitism run amok. Violent anti-Jewish protests are not rare in Australia, and law enforcement does little to stop it. Jew-haters are emboldened to strike out, even to the point of protesting at a memorial for the victims of the Bondi Beach attack. Antisemitism has been normalized in Australia, and I don’t believe the government has the will or the backbone to counter it. That is why I am calling on all Jews who live in Australia to come to your ancestral home in Israel. You will be welcomed with open arms, and you will finally feel safe once again.

Antisemitic Shooting Leaves Scores Dead In Horrific Rampage At Hanukkah Event In Australia

"I'm appalled by the murderous shooting attack at a Hanukkah event in Sydney, Australia," Sa'ar wrote. "These are the results of the anti-Semitic rampage in the streets of Australia over the past two years, with the anti-Semitic and inciting calls of 'Globalise the Intifada' that were realized today. The Australian government, which received countless warning signs, must come to its senses."

Australia Bans Kids Under 16 Years Old From Social Media

Australia began enforcing the world’s first social media ban on Wednesday. The novel policy, which the Australian legislature passed last year, prohibits people under 16 years old from accessing social media. Platforms including Snapchat, Facebook, Instagram, Kick, Reddit, Threads, TikTok, Twitch, X, and YouTube must verify their users’ ages or face millions of dollars in fines.

Australian AG Reaffirms Ban On Prayer Aimed At ‘Changing Sexual Orientation’

“It is an inherent part of our calling as Christians to bring the love of Jesus to all people, to those who have been broken by sin, to encourage them to live according to God’s good design and offer them the pastoral help to do so,” churches responded. 

Relentless Targeting: Australia’s Jewish Community Is Living In A Nightmare

Australian authorities have denounced these acts of antisemitism and established task forces to police such incidents. Still, many Jewish Australians wonder if they should look for another home. “The children of Holocaust survivors have told me they’re glad their parents aren’t alive to see what Australia has become,” Ryvchin wrote. “It won’t end with arson. The question before Australians now is: Will someone get killed before it does?”

Australia Finally Acts Against Iran, Expelling Foreign Ambassador In Rare Diplomatic Move

finally, we have positive news from the Land Down Under, with recent reports indicating that the Australian Government has expelled the Iranian Ambassador.  Reportedly, this is the first time since World War II that Australia has taken steps to expel a foreign ambassador.  Since this is quite a rare diplomatic move, let’s take a moment to understand the events which led to these actions.

Political Poison: Australia’s Venomous Assault On Israel And The Failure Of The Pulpits

Australia has not only succumbed to bad politics but also bad theology.  You see, Australia has been infected by replacement theology and this virus not only affects pulpits, it affects public office as well.  At the core of replacement theology is the view that Israel, as a nation rejected, is undeserving of a glorious future.  In this warped theology, Israel is therefore seen as powerless, stateless, fruitless and futureless.

Detached From Reality And Abandoning Israel: Australian Prime Minister’s Naive Declaration Of Palestinian Statehood

For those familiar with geography, you will know that Australia is called “the Land Down Under” because of its location in the southern hemisphere, below many of the northern continents.  However, many remnant believers feel that Australia is not just under the equator but also about to find itself under God’s wrath as a result of recent decisions which indicate that Australia is abandoning the national interests of Israel. 

Pro-Life Groups Speak Out As New Zealand Sees Startling Increase In Assisted Suicide Rates

“New Zealand appears to be following the same trend as other countries that have introduced euthanasia and assisted suicide legislation in recent years—a steep year-on-year increase in deaths through assisted suicide and euthanasia,” said Catherine Robinson, spokesperson for Right To Life UK.

Australia to Recognize Palestinian State at UN, Sparking Sharp Israeli Backlash

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu blasted the decision, accusing Australia and European governments of “rewarding terror” and ignoring the Palestinian leadership’s refusal to recognize Israel as a Jewish state.

‘An Important Precedent’: Australia Court Upholds Free Speech in Key Case

“This is a decisive win for free speech and sets an important precedent in the growing global debate over online censorship,” said Paul Coleman, the executive director of ADF International. “In this case, the Australian government alarmingly censored the peaceful expression of a Canadian citizen on an American-owned platform, evidence of the expansive reach of censorial forces, even beyond national borders. Today, free speech has prevailed.”

How God Used A Single Jewish Zionist To Immeasurably Bless Australia

In 1939, an organisation referred to as the Freeland League for Jewish Territorial Colonisation identified seven million acres in the Kimberley region in Western Australia as a potential re-settlement point for 75,000 European Jews fleeing rampant antisemitism. The scheme reportedly had widespread support from government committees, businesspeople, trade unions, and the church.  The scheme’s visionary, Dr Isaac Steinberg, even wrote that he could envision Jews "writing Jewish poetry about kangaroos and laughing kookaburras."
