Chinese communists shut down churches while Jin ping in America
While Chinese President Xi Jinping was visiting the United States, Communist police were still arresting pastors and shutting down churches in China.
Pastors and church workers from Jiaquan Church in Beijing have been arrested in raids occurring over the last week. This follows another mass arrest of more members of the Early Rain Covenant Church in Chengdu in southwestern China.
Send a polite, 4-sentence letter to the Chinese Ambassador to America, Xie Feng, urging him to tell the Communist party officials to stop arresting pastors and shutting down churches. Send it to the Chinese Embassy, 3505 International Place NW, Washington, DC 20008.
Supreme Court continues to affirm parental rights
Over the past year, parental rights advocates are winning cases at the U.S. Supreme Court.
By law, the state of California was requiring school officials to conceal information concerning children’s gender transitioning behavior from their parents. Thankfully, the high court struct down the law earlier in the year.
In a separate ruling last June, the U.S. Supreme Court struck down another Maryland law that prohibited parents from opting their kids out of homosexual/transgender indoctrination classes, reported CBS News.
Writing the majority opinion, Justice Samuel Alito argued on the basis of religious rights. He wrote, “A government burdens the religious exercise of parents when it requires them to submit their children to instruction that poses ‘a very real threat of undermining’ the religious beliefs and practices that the parents wish to instill.”
Ebola virus killed 4,000 people in Congo
The World Health Organization reports 8,000 cases of Ebola in the latest outbreak in Congo, Africa — and now, almost 4,000 deaths.
This is the worst outbreak of this deadly disease since 2013.
Mortgage rates at 7.5%
The U.S. 30-year mortgage rate hit 7.5% yesterday, reports Mortgage News Daily.
That’s the highest rate since December 2000.
Trump criticized United Nations
President Donald Trump took to the stage at the United Nations General Assembly in New York last week, heavily criticizing the organization, but also praising it in some aspects as well.
Trump stated, “There is no human right to illegal immigration, but there is a right to remain a sovereign nation.”
He added that the United States “totally rejects any attempt to construct a globalist scheme to control artificial intelligence.”
The president also said, “The United Nations has great, great potential” and he encouraged the U.S. Ambassador to the UN “to implement the most sweeping UN reforms in history.”
Canadian doctors kill more people than American murderers do
Canada now kills more people by “assisted suicide” than the United States does by homicide.
United States Republican Senator Mike Lee of Utah detailed this fact in a now viral post on X, stating, “State-administered death is now more common in Canada than gun homicide is in the U.S. That didn’t happen by accident.”
He also said, “The intersection of assisted suicide and socialized medicine results in state-led horrors, treating the young, old, infirm, and distressed as disposable people. We must never allow this barbarity to spread in America.”
Jeremiah 8:3 gives a stark warning. The Lord of hosts said, “Then death shall be chosen rather than life by all the residue of those who remain of this evil family, who remain in all the places where I have driven them.”
Gen Z more religious than older generations
A new update from the Harris Report revealed that Gen Z is more religious than older generations.
Per the report, “Gen Z is not abandoning faith, they are the generation most likely to identify as religious. Gen Z is not just identifying with faith, they are actively practicing it. For Gen Z, spirituality is one way to build agency in an uncertain future.”
However, many in Gen Z continue to observe harmful religious practices, and dabble with the occult and manifestations.
Ephesians 6:12 says, “For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.”
Planned Parenthood gave Joe Biden their baby killing award
And finally, abortion giant Planned Parenthood handed out its 2026 Sonia Schorr Sloan Service Award to former President Joe Biden, one of the biggest supporters of abortion in United States history, reported LifeNews.
Biden recalled his historic murderous work. Referring to Sonny Sloan, the late president of Delaware’s Planned Parenthood, Biden said this.
BIDEN: “In the wake of the Dobbs decision, as president, I tried to do what I knew Sonny would have been on the phone telling me to do. We took action. We signed executive orders to protect access to reproductive health care, including emergency medical care.”
Since former President Biden is quite difficult to understand, this is what he said. “In the wake of the Dobbs decision, as president, I tried to do what I knew Sonny would have been on the phone telling me to do. We took action. We signed executive orders to protect access to reproductive health care, including emergency medical care.”
(Watch the soundbite at the 17:07-mark in this video of Biden’s speech)
Steven Ertelt of LifeNews explained, “The abortion business killed a record number of babies in abortions last year thanks to Biden’s help with tax funding and pro-abortion executive orders.”
