Pakistani court acquitted two Christian teens of false blasphemy charges
A court in Pakistan acquitted two Christians of false blasphemy charges against Islam on Tuesday.
Adil Babar and Simon Nadeem, 18 and 14 years old respectively, were charged and arrested in 2023.
A court advocate for the Christian young men told Morning Star News, “There’s a dire need to make procedural reforms in cases involving blasphemy to protect the victims, a majority of whom are declared innocent after years of court proceedings and imprisonment.”
Sadly, these kind of false blasphemy charges are weaponized against Christians in the Muslim-majority country. Pakistan is ranked eighth on the Open Doors’ World Watch List of the most difficult places to be a Christian.
Reformed pastors to call U.K. Parliament to repent over abortion, euthanasia laws
A group of Reformed ministers are prepared to call the U.K. parliament to repent next Tuesday, July 15.
Christian leaders with UK Gospel Witness plan to proclaim the Gospel and call the government to repentance. In particular, the organizers lament recent legislation on the Assisted Dying Law and New Abortion Law.
The event’s Facebook page says, “It is our firm conviction that this is a time for God-fearing Christians to unite together and make a public stand and proclamation of Gospel truth in the face of such evil.”
Lamentations 3:40-41 says, “Let us search out and examine our ways, and turn back to the LORD; let us lift our hearts and hands to God in Heaven.”
Samaritan’s Purse deploying teams to flood-ravaged Texas
In the United States, Christian ministries are deploying relief teams to central Texas in the wake of devastating flooding.
Authorities confirmed 119 people have died from the flash floods, and at least 150 people are missing in Kerr County.
Samaritan’s Purse is sending disaster relief teams to the area. Rev. Franklin Graham, President of Samaritan’s Purse, wrote on Facebook, “We need to continue to surround these devastated families and communities in prayer.”

Listen to the prayer for these hurting families from HUD Secretary Scott Turner during a White House Cabinet meeting on Tuesday.
TURNER: “Father, we’re humbled by Your grace. We’re humbled by Your mercy. Lord God, we surrender to You. Jesus, You are the great Redeemer.
“Lord God, we lift up the families that are mourning, that are grieving, those families that are hurting. Father God, we pray for a peace that surpasses all understanding and Lord Jesus, those that are still there, that are alive.
“Father, we pray you will help us to find them Lord God and bring them back to their families. We love you. We honor you. In Jesus’ name Amen.”
Planned Parenthood closes Cleveland abortion mill
Planned Parenthood is permanently closing one of its locations in Cleveland, Ohio.
The abortion mill blamed funding cuts from the Trump administration, ending over a decade of its killing business.
Cleveland Right to Life responded to the closure by “thanking God for the legislators who stood up to the most-evil organization of our time, Planned Parenthood.”
China owns 265,000 acres of American farmland; Trump says, “No more!”
The Trump administration announced its National Farm Security Action Plan on Tuesday.
Specifically, the U.S. Department of Agriculture is banning foreign adversaries, including Chinese nationals, from buying American farmland.
An infographic from the White House shows that China already owns over 265,000 acres of U.S. farmland. Much of that land is located near U.S. military bases.
Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins said, “We feed the world. We lead the world. And we’ll never let foreign adversaries control our land, our labs, or our livelihoods.”
Church discipline rarely practiced in Protestant churches
And finally, new data from Lifeway Research shows church discipline is rarely practiced in Protestant churches.
Fifty-four percent of pastors said their church has not formally disciplined a member since they became pastor or prior as far as they know. Nevertheless, about 80% of churches have policies for formal discipline.
Scott McConnell, executive director of Lifeway Research, said, “The infrequency of church discipline is not because church members aren’t sinning. Church discipline typically occurs when a member is not repentant for a sin or is no longer qualified for a role because of sin.”
Ephesians 5:11-13 says, “And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose them. For it is shameful even to speak of those things which are done by them in secret. But all things that are exposed are made manifest by the light, for whatever makes manifest is light.”
