So I’m thrilled that shadow Attorney General Mark Dreyfus QC has taken a stand and wish him success in the long hard climb ahead.” 98 Brendan Jones: “Mr. Dreyfus is no advocate for free speech, but the fact that he has convinced you he is – and in just one short speech – has persuaded me he’s a first class barrister.” 98 Journalist Martin Hirst: “I loved that he rubbed their pretty little noses in it. He made the point strongly that the so-called “marketplace of ideas” is a conservative myth that bears little relation to reality.” 98 133 Brendan Jones: “All Dreyfus did was say he rejected it.

  • Tongues on Fire
    Tongues on Fire a touch from god overview Tongues on Fire is a must-read for those who want to experience the baptism of the Holy Spirit with the gift of speaking in tongues. Authored by Pastor Leslie Barnett who writes from experience having been involved in the 1970s “New Prophecy Movement.” Pastor Barnett’s story begins with 18th century evangelist John Wesley, who paid heed to visions and supernatural encounters that occurred in the lives of Methodists of his day. Throughout his life he gathered stories of how God was revealing Himself in the lives of His people, and gave much thought to their meaning. The author explains; that in the 1970's when the Holy Spirit was being poured out with the speaking of tongues families were reunited, long-severed friendships reconciled and hearts flowed together in true fellowship in the Lord. However in spite of overwhelming evidence of the resurgence of the new prophecy movement, Cessationists believe that in comparison to the apostolic age, today's tongues is just devilish mumbo jumbo. A claim they say is backed up by the exclusion of the long conclusion of Mark chapter sixteen in the Codex Sinaiticus. The author explains; that the Australian Christian churches (ACC) when merging Assemblies of God (AoG) with the New Apostolic Reform movement brought with them prophets who prophecy without need for tongues interpretation. Worse, the "speaking in tongues" is no longer exercised in main worship services but relegated to the back room ~leaving many classical Pentecostals to question: "where has the public acknowledgment of Mark 16:17 gone?" To sum it up the problem Leslie had this to say: • " The very soul of Christ's church, embodied in prophetic utterances, discernment, worship, healing, deliverance and hospitality has slowly diminished leaving a lifeless institutionalised religion with highly paid men.

    Hinterland Gothic: Reading and Writing Australia’s East Coast Hinterlands as Gothic Spaces Emma Doolan Bachelor of Fine Arts: Creative and Professional Writing (Hons First Class) Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Creative Writing and Literary Studies Creative Industries Faculty Queensland University of Technology 2017 Principal Supervisor: Dr Lesley Hawkes Associate Supervisor: Dr Glen Thomas Keywords Hinterland, Gothic literature, Australian Gothic, ecofeminism, spatial theory, heterotopia Hinterland Gothic: Reading and Writing Australia’s East Coast Hinterlands as Gothic Spaces i Abstract This practice-led thesis comprises an exegesis, titled Hinterland Gothic: Reading and Writing Australia’s East Coast Hinterlands as Gothic Spaces, and a novel, At Devil’s Elbow, a Gothic family drama set on the Blackall Range in Queensland’s Sunshine Coast hinterland. When Debbie James—artist, mother, wife—vanishes after leaving a party, her family, friends, and the police are willing to believe she has left town of her own accord. But Callie, her sixteen-year-old daughter, is not convinced. She sets out on an investigation of her own, one which takes her along the winding roads of the hinterland mountain range and into the entanglements of adult lives. When, months later, Debbie’s badly decomposed remains are discovered tangled in lantana on a hillside not far from the family home, the police turn their attention to Callie’s father, and Callie no longer knows who she can trust. The hinterland, literally the “land behind” or the region “lying beyond what is visible or known” (Oxford English Dictionary 2008) is a central feature in At Devil’s Elbow and an important, if critically neglected, space of Australian cultural life.
