For example, Pemaya, a Hindu witch doctor in Nepal, was tormented by spirits.
PEMAYA: “My grandson started attending church for a couple of weeks. He would sing the songs in the morning and the evening. He told me church is so good and joyful. And he brought the New Testament and read it to me. And when he was reading I felt really joyful.”
Like thousands of other new believers, she received an audio Bible that allowed her to hear God’s Word despite her inability to read it.
In the face of her family’s threats of abandonment and persecution, she trusted Jesus Christ as her Savior and was baptized.
Dr. James Dobson shares his presidential voting guide
In light of tomorrow’s presidential election, Dr. James Dobson, host of Family Talk heard on 1,300 radio stations, put together a compelling presidential voting guide.
In announcing this guide, he wrote, “We are living in a time of great moral divide. Unless Christians engage in the upcoming election, this beloved land of liberty, which has been a beacon of hope to the world through the centuries, may become a distant memory that future generations will only read about in history books. It saddens me to think that this could be the fate of our children and grandchildren.
“I pray for the emergence of Americans who will come out of their hiding places to let their voices be heard on Election Day, November 5th.”

Trump: Liz Cheney is “a radical war hawk”
On October 31st, Donald Trump talked with Tucker Carlson for 90 minutes in Glendale, Arizona about his candidacy.
TRUMP: “The reason she couldn’t stand me is that she always wanted to go to war with people I don’t want to go to war. She wanted to go she wanted to stay in Syria. I took them out. She wanted to stay in Iraq. I took them out. I mean, if it were up to her, we’d be in 50 different countries. Number one, it’s very dangerous. Number two, a lot of people get killed. And number three, I mean, it’s very, very expensive. We spent $9 trillion bombing the Middle East. And what did we get? Other than lots of dead people, including our people, we got nothing.”
Trump emphasized that Liz Cheney liked to sound tough in her former ivory tower when sending American soldiers to unnecessary wars.
TRUMP: “She’s a radical war hawk. Let’s put her with a rifle standing there with nine barrels shooting at her, okay? Let’s see how she feels about it, you know, when the guns are trained on her face. You know, they’re all war hawks when they’re sitting in Washington. Let’s send, let’s send 10,000 troops right into the mouth of the enemy.”
Kamala Harris, the Democratic Presidential nominee, claimed that Trump’s rhetoric was violent.
HARRIS: “He has increased his violent rhetoric, Donald Trump has, about political opponents and in great detail. Suggested rifles should be trained on former representative Liz Cheney. This must be disqualifying anyone who wants to be president of the United States who uses that kind of violent rhetoric is clearly disqualified and unqualified to be president.”
Cardinal urges Catholics to vote for most pro-life presidential candidate
On October 31st, EWTN anchor Raymond Orroyo interviewed U.S. Cardinal Raymond Burke about the moral obligation for Catholics to vote, reports LifeSiteNews.com.
ARROYO: “Cardinal Burke, you recently posted moral questions regarding voting on your website. It’s a guide for Catholics voting in the U.S. election next week. And you write this. ‘For Catholics, as for all men and women of good will, the question is, in fulfilling our civic duty to vote, how can we be obedient to the law of God written upon our hearts in the present situation of deplorable moral, and therefore cultural, decline and decay.’
“In your guide, you emphasize human life, marriage, family, religious freedom as the pre-eminent issues for the common good for Catholics to consider as they go into the voting place. How and why should Catholics prioritize those above party allegiance or personality which seems to govern a lot of the vote today?”
BURKE: “We are servants of God, first of all, and being good servants of God, then we are good servants to our country. And if we don’t obey God’s law, then we’re not going to serve well our country. And so, these three goods — human life from its inception to natural death, safeguarding the integrity of marriage and the family, and religious freedom, are written on the human heart. That’s how God made us, inscribed His law on our hearts.
“We must be obedient to that law. And in that obedience, we serve not only our own good, but the good of our neighbor, the good of the nation. And so, it’s as simple as that.”
Psalm 19:7-11 says, “The law of the LORD is perfect, reviving the soul. The testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple. The precepts of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart. The commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes. The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring forever.”
