Christian Witness to Israel, the international mission to the Jewish people, which was
founded
in 1842, has appointed Joseph
Steinberg as its new Chief Executive Officer
from July 1.
Joseph grew up in a Jewish home in the
USA and as a teenager, after searching the
Old Testament scriptures, became convinced
that Jesus was the promised Messiah.

In late June, the UK’s highest court dismissed an appeal to allow doctors to assist
in suicides.
The case
involved
the
family of Tony
Nicklinson – who died in 2012 and could
only communicate by blinking and nodding –
and Paul Lamb, who is paralysed, and another
man who wanted to travel abroad to die in a
Dignitas clinic. Judges ruled 7-2 to reject their
appeal, with Lord Sumption noting that legalising assisted suicide ‘would be followed by its
progressive normalisation, among the very old
or very ill’.
