Egyptian Coptic Christian kidnapped in busy street

International Christian Concern has learned that on November 8, 2020, three unmasked gunmen kidnapped 61-year-old Coptic Christian Nabil Salama in Egypt’s North Sinai city of Bir al-Abd. The incident was reported by his son Peter.

The kidnapping occurred at 8:00 p.m. while the streets were busy. It was followed by shots fired into the air, and the gunmen stealing an escape car. Salama had left his home to buy an item at a shop less than 50 meters from his house when the incident occurred.

Pray for Salama’s safe return.

Election update: Arizona & Pennsylvania in undecided column

Real Clear Politics has now pulled the states of Arizona and Pennsylvania into the undecided column away from Joe Biden.  If President Trump wins both of those states, in addition to North Carolina and Georgia, then the Commander-in-Chief wins re-election with 276 of the electoral votes.  270 votes are required to win.

Outside of the One America News Network, most in the media have still declared Joe Biden to be the certified 46th president.

Tens of thousands of Pennsylvania ballots returned earlier than sent date

More than 20,000 absentee ballots in Pennsylvania have impossible return dates and another 80,000 have return dates that raise questions, according to a researcher’s analysis of the state’s voter database, reports the Epoch Times.

Over 51,000 ballots were marked as returned just a day after they were sent out—an extraordinary speed, given U.S. Postal Service delivery times, while nearly 35,000 were returned on the same day they were mailed out. Another 23,000 have a return date earlier than the sent date. And 9,000 have no sent date.

The Trump campaign is alleging that invalid ballots have been counted for Democrats and valid ballots for Republicans were thrown away.

Proverbs 11:1 says, “The LORD detests dishonest scales, but accurate weights find favor with Him.”

Senator Cruz calls out the media for double standard

Republican Senator Ted Cruz of Texas addressed the double standard of the media.

CRUZ: “The fundamental question is, ‘Are we going to follow the law?’ You noticed the news media on Election Day when you and I probably went to bed on Election Day seeing the same results, we saw that President Trump had won Florida, we’d won Ohio, we were leading in North Carolina and Michigan and Pennsylvania, in Wisconsin.

“It looked like a very good night. And all the news media was saying at the time, ‘Well, hold on, hold on. We don’t know who won. We don’t know who won. And then as the number shifted to Joe Biden, suddenly the instant they shifted to Joe Biden, the entire news media said, ‘Okay, now it’s over. Everyone shut up and go home.’

“Well, that’s not actually the way the system works. The way the system works is you follow the law. There are multiple lawsuits pending in multiple states. Those lawsuits have to be resolved. And then there are serious allegations of violations of law. The right standard is that every single legal vote that was cast should be counted, but any votes that were illegally cast shouldn’t be counted. We need to let the process play out. And much of the mainstream media doesn’t want to let us do that.”

Senator Graham: 25,000 PA nursing home ballots illegally harvested

Republican Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina asserted that Pennsylvania has dramatic examples of voter fraud.

GRAHAM: “The Trump Team has canvassed all early voters and absentee mail-in ballots in Pennsylvania. And they found 15 people that we verified to have been dead who voted. But here’s the one that gets me: Six people registered after they died and voted. In Pennsylvania, I guess you’re never out of it.”

On Sean Hannity’s Fox program, Senator Graham cited more dramatic voter fraud in Pennsylvania.

GRAHAM: “We’re now finding potentially that 25,000 nursing home residents, in different nursing homes, requested mail-in ballots at the exact same time. You can’t ballot harvest in Pennsylvania. What are the odds that 25,000 people, in different locations, of the same age group, requested, at the same time, a ballot?  Somebody is up to no good in these nursing homes.”

Graham warned there will never be another Republican president if they don’t insist that only legal votes are counted in the 2020 presidential election.

GRAHAM: “From a Republican point of view, mail-in balloting is a nightmare for us. The post office is now the new election center. It’s the Wild, Wild West when it comes to mail-in balloting. Everything we worried about has come true. So, if we don’t fight back in 2020, we’re never going to win again presidentially. A lot’s at stake here.”

Biden ready to reverse Trump’s pro-life policies

If the Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden is officially inaugurated next January, he has vowed to roll back President Donald Trump’s pro-life executive orders and dismantle the administration’s pro-life policies, reports the Christian Post.

That includes using taxpayer money to fund abortions internationally by rescinding the Mexico City Policy.

Marjorie Dannenfelser, president of the pro-life Susan B. Anthony List, said, “Biden and Harris constitute the most pro-abortion presidential ticket in American history.”

U.S. divorce drops

And finally, divorce in America has been falling fast in recent years, and it just hit a record low in 2019.

For every 1,000 marriages in the last year, only 15 marriages ended in divorce, according to the newly released American Community Survey data from the Census Bureau. This is the lowest rate we have seen in 50 years.

Mark 10: 7-9 says, “For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.’ So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore, what God has joined together, let no one separate.”
