‘De Facto Blasphemy Laws’: As The UK Seeks To Redefine ‘Anti-Muslim Hostility,’ Legal Experts Sound The Alarm

If the government adopts this as its official definition it will be a very significant moment in this country. While it will not actually be a blasphemy law, it will effectively be a blasphemy code in relation to Islam. It won’t actually be a criminal offence to say something which falls foul of this definition, but you could lose your job and have your speech recorded against you as a non-crime hate incident.

“We call on the government of Nicaragua to lift this ban immediately,” Stangl said, “and to cease its continued efforts to stifle freedom of religion or belief and expression in the country. We also reiterate our call on the international community to seek creative ways to support and strengthen independent Nicaraguan voices both inside the country and in exile.”

The Genocide Of Christians In Nigeria And A War Of Propaganda To Convince The World Nothing Is Out Of The Ordinary

There’s a genocide happening in Nigeria. While this may sound sensationalized, it’s a sober reality backed by years of data, eyewitness testimony, and independent documentation. While Christians are being slaughtered, abducted, and displaced, another war has just begun. It’s a war of propaganda intent on convincing the world that nothing out of the ordinary is happening.

The intentions of Bloc Québécois and the Liberal Government in making these changes were put on full display after MP Marc Miller publicly chastised the Bible. While claiming himself to be a “man of faith,” Miller insisted that multiple books contained in God’s Word are “homophobic,” stating that sharing certain passages should be considered “hate speech” under the law.

Both Side Of The Bloody Conflict In Sudan Have A Common Enemy: Christians

Although the RSF and SAF are in conflict with each other, they have a common enemy in Christians, whom they do not see as fitting their Islamic vision for Sudan. Churches have been targeted by both the RSF and SAF. Christians have been denied food aid and told, “Unless you leave your Christianity, no food for you.” They, along with all the other people of Sudan caught in the crossfire, are the true victims here.

Teacher Fired for Calling England a Christian Country Wins Appeal

A teacher in England who was banned from working with children for telling a Muslim student that “Britain is still a Christian state” has won an appeal and received a new teaching job.

As Christmas Markets Become A Focal Point Of Islamic Hatred, It’s Time For The West To Take Notice

A warning is once again relevant, as the cherished Christmas market has become a focal point of their hatred. Long seen as a symbol of joy and celebration, a place for families to gather and share time together, to enjoy hot chocolate and seasonal foods, and to experience nativity displays and carol singers. They are now labelled a “high-risk” environment that requires armed police, concrete security barriers, and anti-terror protocols.

US Seizes Sanctioned Tanker Moving Venezuelan and Iranian Oil, Triggering Sharp Rise in Tensions

Attorney General Pam Bondi confirmed late Wednesday that federal agents executed a seizure warrant on the vessel—identified as The Skipper—off the coast of Venezuela. “For multiple years, the oil tanker has been sanctioned by the United States due to its involvement in an illicit oil shipping network supporting foreign terrorist organizations,” Bondi said on X.

The Prophetic Significance Of Socialism’s Rise In America

The rise of Socialism has profound implications for the future of our nation and, given the fact that America is the global leader, it also has ramifications for the entire globe. It's nothing short of meteoric. However, beyond those concerns, the popularity of Socialism also has strong prophetic overtones that I believe will pave the way for the rise of the world's final great tyrant: the antichrist.

Russia’s Bid for a Red Sea Stronghold: Sudan’s Secret Base Deal Ignites Global Alarm

Sudan’s military rulers have quietly offered Russia its first-ever African naval base—an arrangement that would hand the Kremlin a powerful strategic foothold over the Red Sea, one of the world’s most critical and contested trade arteries—according to a Wall Street Journal exclusive.

Trial By Jury: The Next Item On The Chopping Block In England Holds Major Ramifications For Freedom

Thank God that the United States declared independence from England two-and-a-half centuries ago and dependence upon the Lord at the same time. Great Britain, which was a prime mover toward human progress in many ways, seems to be going through a period of jettisoning its former greatness – one move at a time. On the chopping block? Trial by jury for many cases.

Appeals Court Hears Case of Pastor Removed from Police Board for Christian Beliefs

“We had a very interactive panel of judges who engaged with Pastor Hodges’ legal arguments,” Fleischer said. “Even the government’s attorney effectively conceded the core of our position. When asked whether there were any limits—such as if a mayor might refuse to reappoint someone simply because of disagreement with their religious beliefs—she responded, ‘It would depend on whether there was a nexus between religious tenants and politics.’ In this case, there was no nexus. Pastor Hodges was removed not because of anything he did or how he carried out his duties, but solely because of his Biblical worldview.”

Under The Microscope: How Communist Nations Persecute Christians Through Intense Scrutiny, Red Tape

In an attempt to slow the growth of Christianity, each of the world’s five communist nations severely restricts the flow of funding into Christian churches and implements stringent requirements for churches to operate within their borders.

“We praise God that no one was seriously injured, and we are grateful to the security forces for their support and swift action on the ground to resolve the situation and bring a safe outcome,” stated Samaritan’s Purse.

Supreme Court Hears Arrested Evangelist’s Case

Olivier paused preaching in the area after COVID shut down the amphitheater’s concerts, but in May 2021, he returned to share the Gospel. At first, he evangelized in the designated zone but then eventually moved outside the area to preach because the zone isolated him from speaking to crowds. After he was arrested and fined, Olivier filed suit against the city, arguing that the ordinance violated his First and 14th Amendment rights.

The War On Drugs: The Real Battle Is Not Merely On The Seas… Its In The Spiritual Condition Of America

If the war on drugs is ever to succeed, its focus must move beyond the criminal suppliers to the broken users who sustain the market. Reducing demand is essential, and that responsibility extends far beyond government. Drug use is fueled by social breakdown — family instability, isolation, peer pressure, economic despair, glamorizing media, and weakened institutions — and most prominently, spiritual emptiness that leaves individuals without purpose and hope.

Poisoning Public Debate: BBC News Misleads UK Population About ‘Conversion Therapy’

I believe that this article is materially misleading the public on a matter of real importance. The BBC has long suppressed stories of those who are grateful to have moved out of gay or trans identities, but this is a step further.

In-Depth: UN COP30 Climate Summit Unites World Religions Under The Cult Of ‘Earth Worship’

In addition to the political and economic agendas advanced at COP30, one of the least reported but most consequential developments in Belém was, in fact, the increasingly religious and spiritual framing of the global climate movement. Far from being a secular, science-driven assembly, COP30 brought together an unprecedented coalition of world religions.

U.S. Launches New Visa Restrictions Targeting Perpetrators of Anti-Christian Violence in Nigeria

The Trump administration on Wednesday unveiled sweeping new visa restrictions aimed at foreign nationals implicated in the surge of brutal anti-Christian violence in Nigeria–marking one of Washington’s strongest responses yet to what U.S. officials describe as escalating religious persecution in Africa’s most populous nation.

School Bans Youth Pastors From Talking About Jesus With Students

Youth pastors are allowed to visit students during lunch hour in Bossier Parish, Louisiana – but the school district has set up some mighty strict parameters. Clergy are allowed to talk about sports, the weather or the latest hot movie craze – but they are not allowed to talk about Jesus.

As Islam Terrorizes Europe, The Left Resists Trump’s Efforts To Protect America From The Same Future

Trump's team is tracking down and deporting the many bad actors who entered America under the previous administration. Those deportations, along with Trump's vow to shut down immigration from places like Somalia and Afghanistan, has sent the left into a tizzy. Apparently, Democrats want to turn America into Western Europe, where mass Muslim immigration and lax border security are the norms. How is that working out for the Europeans?

Assault On Religious Freedom: Quebec ‘Secularism Minister’ Applauds Bill Aiming To Stifle Public Prayer, Religious Speech

Religious practice includes groups praying in parks, streets, public squares, universities and other public areas and institutions, Premier Christian News reports. Jean-François Roberge, Quebec’s secularism minister, lauded the introduction, believing the bill would be a step toward full secularization in Quebec.

National Guard Family Pleads For Prayers After Washington Shooting Near White House

“Andy is hanging on. And he is a fighter, and his family has told me that, time and time again, he is a fighter,” Moore added. “But above all, what they want here is for everybody to continue to pray. I believe in the power of prayer, and I can promise you his parents believe in the power of prayer. . . . Please keep praying.”

A Prophetic Shift Of Gears: Young Adults Express Willingness To Hand Over Government Power, Freedoms To AI

“These results are stunning. What we are seeing is the early emergence of an AI strongman mentality among younger Americans. Younger generations are increasingly disillusioned with the failures of traditional institutions, so much so, that they are willing to hand control to artificial intelligence... These poll results illustrate an incredibly dangerous trajectory for any society that values personal autonomy and liberty."

Pompeo: The Plight Of Nigerian Christians Has Never Really Received The Attention It Deserves

President Trump’s decision to redesignate Nigeria as a Country of Particular Concern over the systematic persecution of Christians is a welcome and much-needed step to protect religious freedom.

Washington School District Makes Families Jump Through Hoops to Send Kids to Bible Classes

Despite LifeWise meeting all the necessary criteria, the school district has created obstacles for families who want their children to be in the program. Some of these hurdles include prohibiting LifeWise from participating in community events and displaying its flyers. It also requires LifeWise students to conceal any written materials they receive from the program in a sealed envelope in their backpacks.

Four Christian Workers Abducted In Pakistan After Seeking Lawful Wages Witheld By Muslim Employer

Four Christian brick-kiln workers have been abducted in Pakistan’s Punjab province after demanding the payment of their lawful wages from their Muslim employer, investigators told Worthy News Wednesday.

UK Supreme Court Rules That Christian Education And Worship In Schools Is Unlawful

The UK Supreme Court has ruled that the Christian-focused religious education and collective worship in Northern Ireland’s state-funded primary schools is “unlawful.” This is a direct assault on the Christian foundations of the education system, but has been coming for some time. It is a stark warning of what happens when a nation abandons truth for relativism in its schools.

Chinese Pastor, Released After 12 Years Behind Bars, Thanks Americans For Drawing Attention To CCP Persecution

“China is at war with faith, and it is at war with us,” Brownback stated. “China fears religious freedom more than they fear our aircraft carriers or our nuclear weapons. If the world’s largest authoritarian state can eradicate religious freedom without consequences, it undermines the authority of America’s founding values and global leadership.”

EU’s Highest Court Rules That Poland And Other Member States Must Recognize Same-Sex Marriages

While Poland’s justice minister confirmed that the government will implement the ruling, the office of President Karol Nawrocki declared that Poland “will not succumb to the terror of rainbow rulings.” If the EU deems Poland in violation of implementing the ruling, the country could face ongoing fines until it complies.

Even With Islam’s Alarming Rise, Claims Of A Muslim Antichrist Are Not Grounded In Biblical Truth

Today, believers take two approaches to Islam: either fearing it as the ultimate end-times threat or downplaying it like any other religion. Both miss the mark completely. To understand why, we need to examine what's actually happening in our world and what the Bible really teaches about the end times.

Violent Chicago Attack Shines Spotlight On The Destructive Policies Of Major Liberal Cities

News of the attack did not go unnoticed by the President, who responded with strong words on Tuesday for the judicial system in Chicago, which allowed the attacker with 72 prior arrests to continue roaming the streets. Trump lambasted "liberal judges" and Chicago authorities for creating lawlessness and allowing crime to run rampant in the city, calling the situation "out of control."
