Phony cancer charities shut
down for ripping off donors,
AG Cooper and Secretary
Marshall announce
Raleigh: Two sham cancer charities that misled donors out of $75
million nationwide will be dissolved and their leader banned from
nonprofit work, North Carolina Attorney General Roy Cooper and
Secretary of State Elaine Marshall announced Wednesday.
Cooper, Marshall, officials from 49 other states and the Federal
Trade Commission today announced a permanent injunction that will
shut down Cancer Fund of America Inc. (CFA) and Cancer Support
Services Inc. (CSS), donate their assets to legitimate charities, and
ban their leader, James Reynolds, Sr., from profiting from fundrais
ing and nonprofit work and from serving as a charity’s director or
trustee.
The injunction is part of a settlement to resolve allegations that
CFA and CSS claimed to help cancer patients and used misleading
fundraising solicitations and phone calls, but spent the vast majority
of the money they raised on themselves, their families and friends,
and professional fundraisers.
“Many charities do amazing work in our communities but when
charitable donations are misused, people in need suffer and consum
ers lose confidence in giving,” Cooper said. “We took action to pro
tect consumers from these fraudulent charities and restore their trust
in legitimate ones.”
“Today you are seeing a successful united front by the federal
government and every single state charity regulator in this great na
tion,” Secretary Marshall said Wednesday. “This settlement forces
these sham charities into dissolving, liquidates the known assets in
the case, and bans this shameful bunch from ever running another
nonprofit. That’s great news.”
“Do your homework before you give so that your contribu
tions can do the most good,” Marshall said.
Cooper’s Consumer Protection Division offers tips on re
searching charities and avoiding charity scams at ncdoj.gov.

Practical Bible Principles for Life
The
Resurrection:
True or False
7 Corinthians 15
By Pastor John Caldwell
New Jerusalem
Baptist Cathedral
The Easter celebration
is now over. Only the
faithful believer will hold
the impact of such a day
in high praise and esteem
because it reminds the
faithful all are now victors
and are no longer victims
of the unseen, spiritual
forces of darkness.
Were your Good
Friday and Easter Sunday
celebrations one of a
fashion expression, a day of
rest, a family gathering, or
was it one filled with praise
and thanks for Jesus dying
on the cross to taking all of
our sins away and giving
each of us a pathway back
to the Father? Our Lord
dying on the cross was
not the high point of the
celebration. It was Jesus’
resurrection, leaving an
empty tomb which was the
highlight of the spiritual
battle that took place at
Calvary’s hill. Jesus dying
on the cross just showed
His ultimate willingness to
obey the Father’s command
to die for all sinners. It
is the Resurrection which
puts Easter in spiritual
perspective. Easter was for
the battle and control over
our sinful souls - winner
takes all. Jesus wanted us
and the devil wanted us as
well. Who is it that you
wish to take control over
you from here on in?
There will be many who
will be behind the spiritual
blackball of unbelief
already when it comes to
believing the Bible. St.
Paul tell us, “Moreover,
brethren, I declare to you
the gospel which I preached
to you, which also you
received and in which you
stand, by which also you
are saved, if you hold fast
that word which I preached
to you - unless you believe
in vain (1 Corinthians
15:1-2). For many today to
believe what the bible says
about the risen Christ will
be in vain. Not because it
was never preached to you,
but simply because many
do not believe the Bible (1
Corinthians 15:33-34).
Many unbelievers of
today believed like many
ofthe Corinthians ofPaul’s
day, who were socially
sophisticated and critical
thinkers - this Jesus thing
is all legendary and untrue,
arguing no man ever
returned from the
dead. Paul replied, “But
if there is no resurrection
of the dead, then Christ
did not rise from the
grave. And if Christ did
not rise from the grave,
then our preaching is vain
and empty and your faith
is also empty. This also
makes us false witnesses of
God in that we are lying to
you about something God
could not do, or did not do,
and about something that
did not happen. If Christ
was not resurrected from
the grave we all are still in
our sins and there will be no
resurrection of the saints.
Then those who have
fallen asleep have perished
and have lived their faith
for nothing (ICorinthians
15:17). Ifwe have no hope
beyond this life, then we are
most pitiful (1 Corinthians
15:17-19).
But now Christ is
risen from the dead and
has become the first fruit
of those who have fallen
asleep (1 Corinthians
15:21-22). Easter marks
the beginning of the End
of the devil’s rule over
the earth. Easter is when
Christ begins to deliver
the Kingdom to God, the
Father, when He puts an
end to all rule, power and
authority that the devil has
over the cosmic universe
and then put all enemies
under His feet. The last
enemy to be destroyed is
death(l Corinthians 15:26).
All of these victories are to
be celebrated at Easter until
the Lord returns. This is
some of what Easter is all •
about - God raising Jesus,
the Son, from the dead. 0
death, where is your sting?
0 grave, where is your
victory? But thanks be
to God, Who gives us the
victory through our Lord
Jesus Christ (1 Corinthians
15:55-56).
