64 My response to Harry Joost to Alan Atkins’

67 preventing the use or a normal baptistery in the prison chapel. We declare that The Lord Jesus Christ came into the world to save sinners. God is no respecter of persons.

Michael will be giving his testimony to the inmates, on the 11th August, and permission is being sought to take Michael with the mission team to the other prisons to bare testimony at these prisons too.

Harry Joost and Alan Atkins both believe this mission is uncalled for. Harry calls it a stupid mission and can serve no good cause. Alan threatens an e-mail blitz to all on my mailing list if the Mission goes ahead. Please see his enclosed e-mail and I also refer to Alan Atkins article as published in “Immigration Today” magazine. (Please Editor could I obtain a copy)

Now that our mission is “noised abroad” through your Immigration Today) I am seeking publicity of all kinds, as the message we bring is good news to all concerned. I invite you to publish my letter of reply to Alan Atkins’ article, (a journalist/correspondent) which you published in June’s issue of Immigration Today.

I would be pleased to inform you of any further developments in the mission and to give the true story behind the Trojan Horse Mission.

PS. Our Prime Minister Tony Blair is aware of our Mission and so is our Queen Elizabeth II.

Article in Junes Issue “Immigration Today”

Dear Harry,

We have never met however I do value your feedback because by that means I know from where you are coming.

With respect to Michael John Clarke my brother. I too believed neither Michael was nor guilty of the crime he was sentenced for in the Philippines. However he was of guilty of immoral activity in promoting the sex trade that I find unacceptable. I was shocked by the TV news on ITN Television in 1996, which was organised by Shay Cullen and conducted by Adam Holloway and Martin Cottingham of Christian Aid. I was so shocked that

68 my hearing was stopped from listening to Michael. I felt he deserved to get a bashing and perhaps the prison sentence would at least stop his activity.

It was not till Albert was acquitted on 21st December 1999 and made him self-known to me on (December 25th) that I began to listen to Michael. He brought news with him of Michael and others in New Bilibid Prison who he believed were innocent. As has been proved by the recent release of John Pidden. He brought the National Bureau of Investigation report (NBI) regarding Michael and Shay Cullen. I realised then Michael had been set up. Yes he was foolish.

When Albert left New Bilibid Prison he left a few things behind. These items were in a carrier bag together with much paper back books- one book “Mere Christianity” written by the famous English writer, C.S.Lewis.

It was this book that was the instrument used to open Michael’s eyes as to his condition and state before God.

This book was given to Albert by Roger Stone a missionary and bible translator working in the Philippines. Through this book Michael became a Christian by exercising faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. This was whilst doing time in New Bilibid Prison.

His baptism in the oil drum on the 16th September 2000 was due the problems in the prison of gang warfare preventing the use of the normal baptistery in the Prison chapel.

I was in June/July 2000 that I was fully convinced of Michael’s innocence of the said crime and I had the evidence before me- it was the NBI report and the fact I was able to believe Michael himself. Over that year his letters changed he had become a Christian. Please go and view these letters on his web site (http://www.mr-micheal.fsnet.co.uk under the heading of Michael’s Letters.

I knew Michael had been foolish and sinful man doing the things he had been doing, as are all who do the same. I too however cannot throw stones- read my testimony “Converted on LSD Trip, by David Clarke (February 2001) http://www.convertedonlsdtrip.co.uk

Every good father, mother and king would be ashamed of such a sons. I became a Christian after Jesus spoke to me during a bad experience on LSD on 16th January 1969. I turn from my former sinful way to Jesus Christ on that day.

I have written to Shay Cullen but I have had no reply. So too has Michael. It will be interesting to see what comes of it. I have asked to meet him- we will see. The battle is not mine it really is between him and Michael.

I am on the side of the righteous as I hope you all are. You wait and see.

It is not for me to interfere with the politics of another nation but I

69 do have a mandate to preach the gospel to every nation. I have been sent particularly, at this time to the Philippines. To preach the un-searchable riches of Christ, to the inmates and staff officials in New Bilibid Prison, Angeles City Jail, Olongapo City Jail, Angeles City, Drug rehabilitation Centres- bars in Olongapo City, bars in Subic Bay bars and Fr. Shay Cullen.

Our Queen Elizabeth II, Prime Minister Tony Blair, Foreign Secretary Jack Straw, your President Gloria Macapagal -Arroyo are all aware of our “Trojan Horse Mission”.

I believe the wind or tornado of which you speak will in fact be the MIGHTY WIND OF THE SPIRT OF GOD. The Lord Jesus Himself will be baptising men and women with the Holy Ghost and fire. Saving them too from sin death and hell, as he has done Michael and I and many others. Every Christian man and women in the Philippines will rejoice at such news - You ask them? I hope your word is that of prophecy. But be comforted if it were not of God then nothing will come of it.

No man wants religion- that is devilish-no man wants falsehood that is of Satan. I speak the truth I lie not. Taste and see for your selves.

Harry you and Alan I sense are men of experience however I am certain you have never met a man like me before. I love you both- though we have never met- I want to win you both for Jesus Christ- as would your President. She too has been invited to our meetings.

I wish to leave political issues out of this. I have no intention of stirring up problems that you have to deal with. I have heard your former concerns. I wish to lay low on certain issues. I respect your wishes.

You say you would like to help. Well now as Alan published a quotation by German Premier Otto von Bismark, in “Immigration Today” -read it. You would like to “but”…...

Is that just another way of saying you will do nothing to help? If you are a sincere man wishing to help promote righteousness and moral uprightness in the Philippines I am asking you to suggest ways you can help me ensure the Mission is a success. It would be invaluable if you Alan Atkins’ would be our religious correspondent, just like Luke was to the Apostle Paul in the New Testament.

Yours very sincerely

David Clarke

Mission Director

Ambassador for Christ. 17th July 2001.

PS: Since Alan’s article appeared in Immigration Today please ask if my letter to you can to be published by way of a reply.
