Proof The Bible Is True

When Pope Francis visited Cuba in September 2015, many thought the milestone event could signal a breakthrough in the campaign to promote religious freedom in the Caribbean island nation. But now the memory of that papal visit seems to have been forgotten as Cuba’s communist regime has launched a renewed crackdown on the Christian faith with reports of churches destroyed, pastors imprisoned, religious leaders’ personal property seized and Christians violently stopped from worshipping. In its latest report, the Christian Solidarity Worldwide (CSW) says the Cuban regime has launched a major crackdown against churches and has seized and demolished at least 1,400 church [More]

More than 1,600 churches have been targeted by authorities in Cuba this year as a crackdown on religious freedom continues. Between January and July 2016, Christian Solidarity Worldwide (CSW) recorded 1,606 violations of religious freedom. These included the demolition and confiscation of church buildings, the destruction of church property and arbitrary detention. In March, prominent pastor and religious freedom activist Rev Mario Felix Lleonart Barroso was arrested just hours before President Barack Obama arrived in the country for his official state visit. Religious leaders have also had their personal belongings confiscated, and more than 1,000 churches are still considered ‘illegal’ [More]

By Rusty Wright Do you remember the classic MGM movie, “”Ben-Hur””? Charlton Heston, the chariot race, the galley slaves forced to row at “ramming speed”? The film won eleven Oscars as it displayed passion and pageantry, betrayal and bitterness, grace and redemption. Now, Mark Burnett and Roma Downey – with MGM and Paramount – have remade…

“So don’t be afraid of those people. Everything that is hidden will be shown. Everything that is secret will be made known. I tell you these things in the dark, but I want you to tell them in the light. I speak these things only to you, but you should tell them to everyone” (Matthew 10:26-27,…

“There is good news in here about DC and prayer that I was unaware of, let’s hope that it does portend a much needed spiritual awakening.”  Admin You won’t hear this reported on CNN or Fox News because news programs sell spin and controversy. Good news won’t raise ratings. You won’t hear this from America’s pulpits because America’s churches are in a state of separation. Her pastors have abdicated their biblical civic responsibilities to secular politicians in exchange for 30 pieces of tax-exempt…

“It’s amazing how many of the communist goals mentioned for America have been achieved. Our country certainly needs prayer.”  Admin In an attempt to warn the nation, the Democrat Congressman from Florida, Albert S. Herlong, Jr., read into the U.S Congressional Record, Jan. 10, 1963, the list of Communist goals for America (Vol 109, 88th Congress, 1st Session, Appendix, pp. A34-A35). Communist goals included: “Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on…

The United States Supreme Court The American Bar Association has adopted a new rule it says will crack down on discriminatory conduct in the legal profession, but conservative critics warn the real goal is to silence views contrary to the group’s liberal orthodoxy on gender identity and sexual orientation and drum attorneys who hold those views…

“Please remember to pray for persecuted Christians.”  Admin   Classical historian Tom Holland’s observation that Christians in the Islamic State have gone from persecuted minority to sub-human target group highlights the parallel shift in Europe’s cities.   Offering a review of the latest edition of Dabiq, the sleekly-produced recruitment magazine of the murderous Islamic State, author of well-received, easily accessible histories Holland notes the developing contempt with which Christians are viewed.   Writing in The Times, he compares the previously preferable plight of Christians under Islamic State — stripped of their possessions and expelled from Islamic State-held territory — with the “horrors” inflicted on [More]

An Iowa church just wants to be free to preach the gospel, but the state’s so-called nondiscrimination requirements could block the house of worship from doing just that. Lawyers for the church are asking a federal court to prevent Iowa from censoring what the religious group can say about homosexuality, same-sex “marriage,” transgenderism and other related…

In once-secular Turkey, Christians have become targets of Muslim persecution. Here’s what you need to know. For nearly the last hundred years, Turkey, straddling Europe and Asia, has walked a precipitous path. Turning its back on the brutal Ottoman Empire of its past, the nation of 80 million people had attempted to combine its dominant Muslim culture with a more Western-oriented secularism—allowing a measure of political and religious freedom not common in most other Muslim-majority states.   Well, it seems as if Turkey is now on its way to falling into an intolerant form of Islam—if it hasn’t already. How [More]

On Sunday, Pope Francis told hundreds of thousands of young people gathered for World Youth Day in Poland that they need to “believe in a new humanity” and that they should refuse “to see borders as barriers”. Every two or three years, Catholics from all over the planet converge for one of these giant conferences, and as you will see below the Pope has not been shy about using historic occasions to promote his agenda. Unfortunately, it has become exceedingly clear that his agenda includes moving humanity toward a one world religion and a new world order. Of course Pope [More]

“Typical diatribe of the far left. If you don’t agree with their Godless views then you are a Nazi or hate-monger who should not be allowed in. It’s the ranting of those like this columnist that sound more like Nazis and hate-mongers.”  Admin A US church group currently in the UK has been compared to neo-Nazis and Islamist terrorists by a newspaper columnist. Shona Craven said The King’s Project singers were a “musical Trojan horse” who were part of a church that “ticks every box on the Ugly Religious Fundamentalism checklist”. Craven pointed to the church’s pro-marriage and pro-life views [More]

In a macabre hit piece, the Washington Post has launched a smear campaign against important Christian leaders who espouse Biblical morality on homosexuality, labeling them as “enemies of equality.” Employing hyperbolic, McCarthy-esque rhetoric, Post writer Jonathan Capehart actually states that there is a “vast right-wing conspiracy” out to deny gays in America their “humanity and dignity.” Capehart goes on to say that there is a “conservative cabal actively working the levers of power to block their rights.” Mining material from the LGBT lobby group “Freedom for All Americans” (FFAA), Capehart says there has been a coordinated attack on LGBT persons [More]

A new law in Russia that had prompted Christian groups to call for a day of prayer and fasting before its final adoption has been signed into law and now will restrict even the most innocuous conversations about faith, according to reports. “The new law will require any sharing of the Christian faith – even a…

Among cheering crowds, four street preachers were arrested in the UK on Wednesday for causing a “disturbance” while exhorting men to “obey God and keep His commands.” The incident occurred as local resident Mike Overd was open air preaching outside of the Bristol shopping center, while others engaged passersby in conversation and/or held gospel signs. Some of those joining Overd in the evangelism effort included American citizens visiting the country to share the gospel.

Here is just another in a long line of examples of why the united States needs to not only defund the United Nations, but remove ourselves from it and the organization from our soil. In a recent paper put out by the UN Committee on the Rights of the Child (CRC), the CRC said that demanding that children engage in daily acts of Christian worship at school may go against their, “freedom of thought, conscience and religion.”   The Telegraph reports:   Britain must stop forcing children to attend Christian school assemblies because it undermines their human rights, a United [More]

“If he lives long enough he will fit perfectly into a one world religion.”  Admin Evil-willed people are using Brexit as an excuse to give vent to hatred and to create division, the Archbishop of Canterbury said last night.  In what became a conscious display of interfaith harmony at a time of unprecedented tension, Justin Welby hosted an iftar last night night at Lambeth Palace – a breaking of the Muslim fast of Ramadan. He was joined by Mayor of London Sadiq Khan and Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis, as well as many young people of Christian and other faiths.” At a [More]

“Just another government attack on religious freedom. Abortion is another club that is being used to bash Christians with.”  Admin The U.S. Supreme Court has allowed a ruling to stand that requires the owner of a Washington pharmacy, along with two of his pharmacists, to stock the morning-after pill despite their religious convictions regarding abortifacients. As previously reported, in 2006, Ralph’s Thriftway owner, Kevin Stormans, received a call inquiring whether the location sold the morning-after pill. After replying that the pharmacy did not carry it, he began to receive anonymous complaints via phone and email. Ralph’s Thriftway was soon also picketed [More]

“This whole transgender, lesbian/gay mania is being used as club to beat Christians over the head with. It’s a war on Christianity folks. This is exactly what we can expect as we go into the last days.”  Admin Teachers unions across America are shunning Christianity and embracing the LGBT community, as the National Education Association is now pledging at least $70,000 to fight religious freedom bills and championing a gender-confused policy on bathrooms and locker rooms. The NEA will meet in Washington, DC, from July 2–7 in order to set its agenda for the coming year, and it itinerary looks [More]

The Supreme Court’s decision striking down the Texas abortion law signed by Gov. Rick Perry in 2013 is but the latest example of the lost, confused, sick nation we have become. In the words of the late Justice Antonin Scalia, “A country I do not recognize.” The court, in an opinion written by Justice Stephen Breyer,…

“It’s becoming more clear why Trump needs to be elected, Hillary would only continue and amplify on Mr. O’s odious policies. Make your vote count.”  Admin On Tuesday, the HHS Office of Civil Rights upheld a California abortion mandate that requires churches in California to pay for elective abortions. The Obama administration had opened an investigation after churches filed a lawsuit against the regulation last October, seeking protection under the Weldon Amendment that guarantees conscience rights. The administration claims that it found no violation of the Weldon Amendment and therefore is terminating its investigation without further action. In 2014, the [More]

When a veteran started offering traditional remarks at a military flag-folding ceremony, several uniformed airmen assaulted him, dragging him out of the room because his remarks mentioned God. Now First Liberty Institute lawyers representing retired Senior Master Sergeant Oscar Rodriguez are demanding that the U.S. Air Force apologize and punish those responsible or face a federal civil-rights lawsuit.

California state lawmakers are poised to advance legislation they say will promote greater equity at the state’s colleges and universities, but religious freedom advocates say it’s just another attempt to advance the LGBT agenda by removing the ability of schools to determine their own criteria for selecting students and personnel and establishing codes of conduct. The legislation is known as SB 1146, which amends the California Equity in Higher Education Act, or EHEA. As it currently stands, the statute forbids discrimination based on religion, sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression. But it also contains a significant exemption for religious [More]

“Not surprising, the godless left will always try to blame events like this on Christians anyway they can. We can see the climate in this country becoming more anti-Christian.”  Admin American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) attorney Chase Strangio took to Twitter to castigate Christians for the shooting massacre by jihadist Omar Mateen at a gay nightclub in Orlando, Florida. “You know what is gross – your thoughts and prayers and Islamophobia after you created this anti-queer climate,” Strangio tweeted.

Are the U.S. and NATO inciting Russia into war? To thousands of objective experts, it does appear so. BALTOPS 16, a NATO military exercise, is now taking place in the Baltic Sea in very close proximity to Russia. “Over the next three weeks BALTOPS 16 will draw together some 6,000 personnel, 45 warships, and 60 aircraft from 17 nations, including the United States, Germany, the U.K., the Netherlands, along with the littoral states of the Baltic States who are NATO members (Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Denmark) or NATO partners (Sweden and Finland).” “Washington’s move to place a new ground-based missile [More]

A seven-year-old first grader was recently reprimanded in front of his entire class and a police officer was dispatched to his family’s home because the child had brought notes with Bible verses on them to school. Christina and Jaime Zavala live in Palmdale, California. In January, they enrolled their son in the first grade at Desert Rose Elementary School in the Palmdale School District, according to a recent letter from the nonprofit group Liberty Counsel. To encourage her son at school, Christina gave him brief notes to read during lunchtime. Each note included a Bible verse for him to read. [More]
