Tullian and the Gospel!

Pastor Tullian is the Senior Pastor of Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church.  The church pastored for decased by the late D. James Kennedy.  It was not easy for Tullian to pastor this church because he was almost ousted by some of the church members from being its pastor.  The issue even became of a national interest that the problem within the church was even talked about in national television in the US.

For some of us the gospel is only for unbelievers and not for believers; not for Tullian.  See how the Gospel became the source of strength and encouragement, even for a man of God:

PHILIPPINE SUPEME COURT ACQUITS SUSPECTS IN VIZCONDE MASSACRE!

The Vizconded Massacre Case which had been pending for 19 years was finally decided by the Highest Court of the land last December 14, 2010.  I was still an elementary student back then when the Vizconde Massacre incident happened and now that i'm already a college graduate (even  law school graduate) the case has been finally decided.

When i heard from the news that the hight court already gave its verdict, i was totally surprise.  Surprise becuase of the verdict given  was in favor of the accused Webb et. al..  Another reason for my surprise was the fact that the ponente of the Supreme Court Decision was my former professor in law school who was then subsequently apppointed as a Supreme Court Justice.

For those who are intereseted you can read the Supreme court decision:
