New Bilibid Prison (Maximum Compound) Muntinlupa City Foreword by Jose Calida Forword UnderSecretary Jose C. Calida Department of Justice Manila, Philippines I am honored to write the foreword of David Clarke’s book entitled “Trojan Warriors - Objective: Setting Captives Free.” The intriguing title of the book alludes to the Greek mythology about the rescue of Helen of Troy by using a wooden horse that hid the warriors. I can understand the literary license that the author employed to catch the attention of the reader because a book, to be of any use, must be read. However, this book is not about deceptive tricks to mislead the enemy. “The Big House” The underpinning premise of this book is that all men have sinned and Recounts the mission of the Trojan Horse to the Philippines in order to fall short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23). This being so, we are captives bring assitance and help to many converted criminals that had turned from of sin, imprisoned in our own futility, and therefore, in need of a redeemer. crime to Christ in New Bilibid Prison in the Philippies. Some are literally imprisoned behind bars and barbed wires, like the inmates This is an amazing collection of life giving testimonies of former in the New Bilibid Prison in Muntinlupa for sins they have committed to convicted criminals housed in one of the largest National Penitentiaries in society. Many however, are incarcerated in spiritual dungeons, without bars, the Far East without guards. One is no better than the other. Both prisons eventually lead Some hardened criminals are struck with fear when they learn their to destruction and death unless God intervenes. sentence is to be served in this jail. It houses over 33,500 inmates, in three God’s loving intervention in man’s history is the core message of the compounds. The Maximum, Medium and Minimum Compounds. The gospel and of this book. The good news is that we are not shipwrecks, Maximum Compound houses over 13,000 men in a most unique way, floating aimlessly in the sea of hopelessness. There is a God who loves us In this compound there are over 1200 “Death Convicts”, one of which tremendously, who desires to salvage us and make us useful once again is Alfred R.

By the grace of the My conclusions are that the British system is unjust but for very different Almighty God, I accepted this challenge with the knowledge that people are reasons. In Britain once an immoral act is perpetrated a person is considered put in prison, not for further punishment, but rather that they may benefit innocent until proven guilty, thus the victims of crime often suffer injustice. from their confinement and re-enter the community with positive attitudes. In the Philippines a person is considered guilty until proven innocent and The Bureau’s mission is the orderly rehabilitation of its wards when the innocent therefore often suffer injustice. clearly their spiritual upliftment is of major significance.

Krzysztof Kaucha, prof. KUL Lublin 2018 1 DEDICATION This work is dedicated to the growth, strength and holiness of the Catholic Church in Igboland and the entire Universal Church. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT First of all, I give praise and glory to God Almighty, the creator and author of my being, essence and existence. I sincerely thank my Lord Bishop, Most Rev. Paulinus Chukwuemeka Ezeokafor for his paternal blessings, support and sponsorship. With deepest sentiments of gratitude, I thank tremendously my beloved parents, my siblings, my in-laws, friends and relatives for their great kindness and love. My unalloyed gratitude at this point goes to my brother priests here in Europe and America, Frs Anthony Ejeziem, Peter Okeke, Joseph Ibeanu and Paul Nwobi for their fraternal love and charity. My immeasurable gratitude goes to my distinguished and erudite moderator, Prof. Krzysztof Kaucha for his assiduousness, meticulosity and dedication in the moderation of this project. His passion for and profound lectures on Fundamental Theology offered me more stimulus towards developing a deeper interest in this area of ecclesiology. He guided me in formulating the theme and all through the work. I hugely appreciate his scholarly guidance, constant encouragement, thoughtful insights, valuable suggestions, critical observations and above all, his friendly approach. I also thank the Rector and all the Professors at John Paul II Catholic University, Lublin, Poland.

  • Establishment and Growth of Protestantism in Colombia
    Establishment and Growth of Protestantism in Colombia Leslie J. Thompson September, 2005 School of Education, University of Wales, Bangor This Dissertation is submitted in part fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Ph.D. of the University of Wales ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The researcher is most grateful to friends in Colombia who came to his assistance. Some lent books long out of print on the early years of the Protestant Church. Rev. Guillermo Triana, President of the Confederación Evangélica de Colombia (CEDEC), provided minutes of key meetings that helped the researcher gain an understanding of missionary/national conflicts. Rev. Jairo Gutierrez made a special trip to the Baptist Theological Seminary Library in Cali, Colombia and, with their permission, copied several entire books that would otherwise have been unavailable. The chief librarian at the National Library of Colombia in Bogotá was very helpful. An old friend, Jeanne Burford de Bucana (1995) must be thanked for her book La Iglesia Evangélica en Colombia. Without these special resources, the task of completing this work would have been very difficult. Two men deserve special mention: Dr. Bill Rees and Dr. Colin Baker, my thesis supervisors at the University of Wales, Bangor. Dr. Rees has patiently reviewed this work chapter by chapter and provided invaluable suggestions and assistance. Dr. Baker has been a source of constant encouragement. As a group, the pastors of the Asociación de Iglesias Evangélicas del Caribe receive chief credit for the completion of this work. They are the men who actually lived out the researcher’s thesis. For their participation in interviews as well as their responses to numerous phone calls and electronic communications, the following individuals deserve special mention: Gregorio Landero, Ubaldo Padilla, Juan González, Marcos Díaz, Alvaro Méndez, Enoc Palacio, Wilson Martínez, Danilo Díaz, Eleazar Moreno, Eddie Romero, and Nicolas Woodbury.
