The 23rd Pentecostal World Conference 2013 will be held at the Calvary Convention Centre (CCC) on 27-30 August 2013. The controversial CCC, which was designed by freemason Ken Yeang, has freemasonic symbols incorporated into the design and had been fraught with costly delays, conflicts with contractors and work stoppages due to serious cashflow problems throughout the construction period.
Senior Pastor Prince Guneratnam (PG) who mooted the idea of this grand wasteful project, used his autocratic style to silence all opposition and protests from his members to the building of the CCC. During the height of the Church crisis a few years ago, he sacked some 400 members and several more hundreds left the Church in disgust of his vindictive actions and mismanagement. In rushing to complete the CCC in time for this PWC, he has successfully gotten Calvary Church heavily into Bank debts of up to a tune of about RM60 million at the last count.
Calvary Church which used to be the largest Church in Malaysia now has less than 2,000 members and has now been overtaken by other bigger Churches like Full Gospel Assembly, SIB, DUMC and Glad Tidings.Of course, Calvary Church can now claim the title of being the largest church debtor in the country!

CCC to be officially opened by shamed Dr David Yonggi Cho
PG’s good buddy and mentor. Dr David Yonggi Cho was recently indicted in the Korean Court for Criminal Breach of Trust (CBT) in a share scam that resulted in a loss of US$14.5m for his Church. He is also being investigated for possible tax evasion to a tune of US$5.5 billion. Read the story at:
Dr Cho has been invited by PG to officiate the opening and dedication of the Calvary Convention Centre (CCC) on 27 August 2013.
It is ironical that both pastor-buddies have similar histories. During the height of the Calvary Church crisis, a police report against PG for CBT was lodged by a church member. Fortunately for PG, the case against him was not taken up by the authorities although much evidence was furnished to the police, thanks in part to the political climate and religious sensitivities prevailing at the time.
PG was also investigated for tax evasion during that time. The tax department raided both his office and home. However, PG promptly paid up the taxes and penalties imposed and no further action was taken.

THE VERDICT ON THE ALTANTUYA CASE
I was very much distressed on the outcome of this case.The 1st accused was acquitted without even the defence being called and the other 2 accused were released on technical grounds.So who is responsible for murdering her really? The Star daily highlighted- If ones daughter is murdered- where does one go to get justice in Malaysia?
There is only one other person who could have done it- Altantuya herself. THE ONLY THEORY LEFT IS THAT SHE SHOT HERSELF AND BLEW HERSELF UP WITH C4 EXPLOSIVES.And that is what the Judicial system is saying.This is Malaysia- and in this country- semua pun BOLEH!!!(including sacking 400 people and getting away with it)
The public may complain and groan-but what can one do when the case involves people of power and know how to use the system?
In my opinion,SP's church administration is no different.After having quietly parked his own personal ministry besides CC- he fleeced $$
(God knows how much) for umpteen years. The show was over only when this Bloggers here began to speak their minds.
Who will get justice for the 400 who were sacked?
Who will get justice for Dr.Lum?
Who can get justice for Teoh Beng Hock?
AND FOR ALTANTUYA? Is that the way for a pretty and intelligent Interpreter in the Submarine deal to die in our land? A victim in the hands of those who had the money and the power?
SP's power has gone to his head.Its about time someone with authority speak to him privately and ask him to go for some psychiatric treatment.

The devil in it hyenas form take in vicious determination to devour his prey at all expense. Applaud for continuously watch out for those to be deceives by creating discerning and dissimilate the righteous doctrine to the sheep that may have being trap in this oppression. Keep up this good work!
I think that this blog is a testimony that church folks have begun to mature and are asking questions.May the Lord help us to resist all spiritual abuse nomatter in what direction it cometh from.
To me the CCC looks real ugly and too big.The $$$ could have been spent on the poor & homeless.But who cares about them whether they live or die? The only thing the church is concerned is to build bigger and bigger.
Those who lie and cheat the lambs of God will face his wrath in the fires of Hell.
Sometimes it is so sad to hear the shepherd of the church suppose to guide and carry out Jesus Christ’s will began to business enterprise unto his own worldly wise desire. One knows that doing the will of God is trusting and express faith in God. Some oppose the will of God because of the felony and satisfaction of the state of humanity so factual. This has allure the adversary of the soul came and beguiles the Senior Pastor with the wonder of the world offering him the opulence of life start worshipping from himself, share and partial with relations and flow towards his descendants. So perhaps he grasps this opportunity for his family and the crony along building strength of the world to have security of profession in disguise doing assignment to God.
Not many Christians are able to survive this 40 days temptation and assessment of life in the dessert walking together with Jesus Christ. Some unable to resist took the bread as exchange. While others extra tolerance renounces the agony of soul shortly into the richest of the world. Some might in the finale take the jump for the devil deception! The masses dare not rebuke the devil for fear of commotion and right in his worldly establishment!
That is happening road to Calvary.
With fortune, status, name and millions of resources in exploitation from those years of collection, he began to build bigger barn to sustain his enormous self-indulgence and security toward his descendants. Breaking all opposing contenders, earlier contributors and builders, he began to re-write history of his personal ownership and achievement. But something is happening to the worshippers; Yahweh strikes the Shepherd and causes his fold to disperse and God people began to lose faith and evidently those covetous lewd loves in the church business enterprise start sprouting. They experience deficiency of God’s love and concern for spiritual welfare, wicked principality justified and legalism creping in wiping out the liberty of worship and divine essence roaming in the assembly. Giving is not a joy and trust but more of compulsion to achieve man purpose. Man direction is enhanced and the directive of the holy being is discharge at the insight of men. Organization is established, forsaking organism tenet practice in the Church of God.
Believer craving for relieved of relationship was despised. Brethrens was betrayed! Group was in hunger for God path was exasperated and hoodwinked. Discipleship was on the surface rather than innate. Church worker is fighting and protecting their hired responsibility. Interrelationship is rested to a group of crony and politic clique intensified.
These proclaim the destruction of Calvary.
God is looking for building of a man, not expenses of building a monument. He will not sacrifice a monument at expenses of men but rather a monument in expenses of people-the veil is torn downward for him!
This principle of “organization” must not be glorified. This scam must not be flabbergasted and lesson has to be taught from this misinterpretation. Although the earlier founders and builders are annoyed, let downed and enraged by the act of disassociate from participation to fruit of hardship and magnificent deed that they have built over time, struggle and collective love in expression- those investment has been stolen. It is only a short while the Master returns; he already has proclaimed his journey in each whom has experience such a distress in his kingdom.
The struggle is not in opposing to the world but against the evil and wicked principality operating at most high places. To whom those who comprehend we will walk the same path on day by day discovery and uncovering those adversaries from their sinful act and unjust hibernation. The light of Jesus must shine across!
This is Calvary Church!
