Pakistani Christian Man Murdered While Searching for Kidnapped Daughter
The family of a Pakistani Christian man is in dire straits after their father, Tanveer Masih, was murdered on May 31. Masih was trying to find the whereabouts of his kidnapped daughter.
The British Pakistani Christian Association is looking for justice in this particular case. The World View spoke with Wilson Chowdry, chairman of the BPCA, about the Masih kidnapping and murder:
“We’ve been very fortunate on two occasions in recent weeks. For the majority of cases that we challenge very rarely have any justice at all. In fact, it’s very difficult to even get the initial investigation with the local police. However, we do now have a relationship with the Pakistani government, and are able to use that as a tool to leave a better response.”
Chowdry also said they have moved the family into a safe house:
“They’ve lost their patriarch, their father, their husband. And for them, it places them in a very weak position. Without a patriarch, without a male figure in Pakistan, it’s very hard to survive.”
The BPCA currently has funds available to support the family for a year. Listeners may provide their support at www.britishpakistanichrist
Archbishop of Canterbury Approves Appointment of Homosexual Bishop
The Archbishop of Canterbury has approved of the appointment of an avowed homosexual as a bishop in the Anglican Church. The report comes from the UK Guardian over the weekend. The Right Rev. Nicholas Chamberlain admits to a lifestyle of homosexual sin. And Archbishop Justin Welby says he was “fully aware of Bishop Nick’s long-term, committed relationship.”
Revelation 3:14-16 says, “These are the words of the Amen, the Faithful and True Witness, the Ruler of the God’s creation: ‘I know your deeds, that you are neither hot nor cold. I wish you were either one or the other. So, because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I am about to spit you out of My mouth.’”
Sexual Minorities Uganda Sues American Pastor over Teaching on Homosexuality
A group called Sexual Minorities Uganda or SMUG has targeted an American pastor for his teaching on homosexuality. They have filed a lawsuit in a U.S. federal court, recently introducing another 1,000 pages of what they call “evidence” against Scott Lively. However, lawyers from the Liberty Counsel argue that “The evidence shows that Lively, in a country where homosexuality has been illegal for decades, urged treatment of LGBTI people with respect and dignity, and the liberalization of Uganda’s laws against homosexuality, even as he spoke in favor of biblical sexual morality and against the LGBTI political agenda.”
And if you’re trying to keep up with all these crazy acronyms, the “i” in this list of sexual minorities stands for “intersexed.” And according to the Intersex Society of North America, “intersex” is a “general term used for a variety of conditions in which a person is born with the reproductive or sexual anatomy that doesn’t fit the typical definitions of female or male.”
The Apostle Peter reminds us, “But even if you suffer for what is right, you are blessed. Do not fear their threats, do not be frightened.” (1 Peter 3:14)
Obama Cancels Meeting with Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte

Psalm 125:3 says, “For the scepter of wickedness shall not rest on the land allotted to the righteous, lest the righteous stretch out their hands to do wrong.”

Great White Shark Circles Boat in Massachusetts Bay
Fox News reported on a video of a 20 foot long Great White Shark, circling a father and a son in a small boat off the Massachusetts Bay. Neither father or son glorified God for this amazing creation, but the father is heard correcting the son for swearing as they watched the shark circle their little boat for a period of five minutes.
And that’s the World View in Five Minutes.
