[1] Christian Observer Contributing Editor and Jonathan Edwards Scholar David Brand Dies at Age Eighty-One

Christian Observer Contributing Editor David Brand died 29 June 2023 at age eighty-one at his home in Ruckersville, Virginia after several years of declining health. David’s 1991 book “Profile of the Last Puritan: Jonathan Edwards, Self-Love and the Dawn of the Beatific” is considered to be a unique and insightful analysis of the great puritan preacher of the 18th century.

As a Contributing Editor to the Christian Observer, David wrote articles on various theological subjects between 2014 and 2019, including a masterful series of articles subtitled “Shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect?” which explained in great detail the destruction of Christian doctrine by those who wrote the Revised Standard Version of the Bible in the nineteenth century.

David’s articles are available at christianobserver.org, and are best accessed by doing a word search on “David Brand” including the parentheses.

David’s obituary is available at:

The editor treasures his longtime friendship and working relationship with David, and offers David’s family his sincerest condolences.

[2] Study Says Thirty-Nine Percent of American Doctors Admit Giving Drugs to ‘Hasten Death’

BOLIVAR, Mo., July 13, 2023 /Christian Newswire/ — “That statistic is just one of the shocking pieces of information I have discovered since my husband’s tragic hospital journey,” said author Gayla Prewitt. “I hope by telling our family’s heartbreaking story to help shine a light on how dark the broken medical system has become and provide possible solutions through a nine-point plan I call ‘The Peter Prewitt Medical Free Will Restoration Plan.'”

Number one on the plan, take the CON out of health care and repeal “Certificate of Need” laws. “Getting rid of these laws would help caring doctors to open their own hospitals,” added Prewitt. In 2008, the U.S. Department of Justice and the Federal Trade Commission called these laws a violation of “antitrust measures” and claimed repealing the laws would give consumers/patients more choices and better service. More about CON laws in chapter five of Prewitt’s book, “Vitamin SEE.”

“This is not just my family’s story or an isolated incident,” said Prewitt. Many more Christian women are fighting for justice for their husbands’ wrongful deaths. In addition, the parents of Grace Schara have filed a lawsuit against the hospital they say murdered their disabled daughter.

“While my husband was not a COVID patient, many of the same deadly protocols were also applied to him,” added Prewitt. “They didn’t feed him five days before he died, gave him what I believe was a lethal cocktail of drugs, including high doses of IV Fentanyl, and, unknown to me, listed him as DNR.”

For more information, https://rumble.com/v2xs4y8-vitamin-see.html or www.gaylaprewitt.com/vitamin-see for an outline of the plan to restore humanity to health care.

[3] ‘Brain Death’ Theory Under Challenge as Mother Makes Emergency Application to Court to Prevent Withdrawal of Life Support for Son

A mother supported by the Christian Legal Centre is making an emergency application to the Court of Protection to stop doctors at St George’s Hospital in Tooting from removing life support from her twenty-year-old son, Andy Casey.

Samantha Johnson, forty-six, has instructed lawyers to make an application to the out-of-hours duty judge after being told by doctors that they intend to switch off her son’s life support within a few hours.

Andy was out with friends last Sunday night (9 July) when he was punched in the back of the head, and falling to the floor, suffered a severe brain injury.

He was resuscitated and taken to ICU at St George’s Hospital where he was put on artificial ventilation. He appeared to breathe independently for two hours the following morning, and has since made some independent attempts to breathe.

However, doctors told the family that Andy’s brain has suffered a severe trauma and they believed that he is likely to be ‘brain-stem dead’. The doctors said they intend to carry out a series of tests, and if there is no response, to withdraw life support immediately. The doctors have told the family they do not believe they need the family’s consent or an authorisation form the Court of Protection to withdraw his treatment.

Andy’s mother, his father, his sister and three brothers, as well as the larger extended family are all united in their opposition to the removal of life support.

The theory of ‘brain stem death’ or ‘death by neurological criteria’ was widely accepted by the medical profession from the 1970s until late last year as a reliable way to diagnose death by testing neurological reflexes while the person’s heart is still beating. However there are eminent neurologists across the world who are now questioning this theory.

This scientific controversy was at the centre of last year’s high-profile case of Archie Battersbee, a twelve-year-old boy found by the judge to be “dead on the balance of probabilities”, only to be overturned by the Court of Appeal who held that a diagnosis of death required certainty or near certainty.

The scientific consensus on the reliability brain-stem death was then shattered when in late 2022 ‘Baby A’, who had been correctly diagnosed as “brain-stem dead”, subsequently had a return of his respiratory drive (something the brain-stem death theory held to be absolutely impossible). As a result, the High Court found that the UK testing protocols for brain-stem death were unreliable and could not be used in court. The Academy of Medical Royal Colleges has not yet been able to agree revised protocols so the UK currently has no way reliably to diagnose brain-stem death.

The case is reminiscent of the high-profile legal battles between families and the NHS over withdrawal of life support from children such as Charlie Gard (2017), Alfie Evans (2018) and Archie Battersbee (2022). In response to those cases, the government has commissioned an independent review into the disputes between parents and hospitals over treatment of critically ill children; this is currently ongoing and is expected to lead to changes in legislation.

Ms Johnson, who has secured the services of the legal team who represented the family of Archie Battersbee, has said:

My son deserves a fighting chance and it is shocking that the NHS wants to withdraw life support after less than a week. I was devastated to be told that they are going to withdraw my son’s life support in a couple of hours and there is nothing we as a family can do about it. We are a large and tightly knit family, and we are all strongly against this, but our wishes are being ignored. We have been so fortunate to get legal advice quickly enough to know our rights, and we will fight this case all the way through the courts to ensure we have done everything to save Andy’s life.

Andrea Williams, Chief Executive of Christian Legal Centre which is supporting the family and has urgently secured free legal representation for them, has said: “It is vital in moments such as this that we do not rush. This family is asking for time for Andy. In a situation as complex as this Andy’s family should not feel under pressure to switch off life support.”
