Muslim-majority Türkiye kicks out 9 Christian missionaries
Türkiye’s highest court ruled in a 7-6 close vote to support the government’s expulsion of nine foreign Christians for alleged missionary activities. It is a Muslim-majority country.
Kelsey Zorzi, Alliance Defending Freedom International’s Director of Advocacy for Global Religious Freedom, has stated that this is one more indication that “Türkiye is systematically trying to extinguish Christian beliefs inside its borders.”
Shockingly, 185 foreign missionaries have been expelled from the country since 2018. The nine individuals in this case now have the opportunity to appeal to the European Court of Human Rights.
Jesus said, “If the world hates you, you know that it hated Me before it hated you.” (John 15:18)
The foul diatribes of Covenant School massacre shooter
Officials have released a stream of documents including journal entries produced by the person responsible for the Covenant School massacre in Nashville, Tennessee.
The foul diatribes mainly concern the perpetrator’s frustration with her God-given female gender, and her parents’ preference for a “conservative” Christian faith.
The animus expressed in her extensive handwritten entries have provided insight into the motives involved with six murders of teachers and children at the school on March 27, 2023. (Link provided near the bottom of this transcript)
El Salvadoran president turned to God in prayer
Conservative talk show host Tucker Carlson recently interviewed the newly re-elected president of El Salvador on his outstanding victory, and his unprecedented rooting out of a strong criminal element from his country.
Nayib Bukele explained that ,upon his first election, the murder rate in El Salvador was three times greater than Haiti. Plus, his country was the murder capital of the world.
He pointed out the impossibility of rooting out 70,000 gang members who were intertwined with the population. Listen to this soundbite from Carlson’s interview.
BUKELE: “I basically said we're looking into an impossible mission here. So we prayed.”
CARLSON: “You prayed in the meeting?”
BUKELE: “Yes, yes, of course, several times. Yeah.”
CARLSON: “What did you pray for?”
BUKELE: “Wisdom, to win the war. I thought at the time that we will have civilian casualties. So, we prayed that the civilian casualties will be as low as possible. And we didn't have any civilian casualties.”
CARLSON: “Was everyone in the meeting comfortable with that?”
BUKELE: “Yes, yes. All my security cabinet are believers. They all believe in God. We're a secular country, of course. But we all believe in God.”
CARLSON: “MS-13 is one of the major gangs…”
BUKELE: “and they are Satanic also.”
CARLSON: “That was my question. So, I hope you will explain it because very little has been written in the West about this.”
BUKELE: “They’re Satanic, yes”
CARLSON: “But actually, literally. Can you explain?”
BUKELE: “Well, they didn't start it as a satanic organization. MS-13 started in Los Angeles, in the US, because Salvadorans were not allowed to sell drugs by the Mexican gangs. So, they created a gang that was called 18th street gangs.”
Bukele plans to address the economic problems of the nation during his second term. He said the first part of his plan is to “seek God’s wisdom” to which Tucker Carlson noted, “I have never heard any leader of any country say that.”
Proverbs 15:33 reminds us that “The fear of the Lord is instruction in wisdom, and humility comes before honor.”
SCOTUS disregarded FDA’s own stat: 1 in 25 mothers go to ER
As The Worldview reported on Friday, the U.S. Supreme Court unanimously approved the Abortion Kill Pill by mail last Thursday.
At issue was the relaxing of rules relating to the administration of Mifepristone in the killing of an unborn child.
Justice Brett Kavanaugh wrote in the opinion that “the plaintiffs have failed to demonstrate that the FDA’s relaxed regulatory requirements likely would cause them to suffer injury.”
Attorney Erin Hawley with Alliance Defending Freedom, which represented the Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine, said, “Nothing in today’s decision changes the fact that the FDA’s own label says that roughly one in 25 women who take chemical abortion drugs will end up in the emergency room.”
The life of the child was not considered in the case.
Nasdaq up 18%; Russell 2000 down 20% in value
The Nasdaq composite index has improved 18% since the beginning of the year. However, the Russell 2000 Index, representing the smaller companies on the market, has lost 1% over the last six months, reports WolfStreet.com.
The Russell 2000 index has seen zero improvement in three and a half years. Adjusted for inflation, this would account for a 20% loss in value.
Exactly six companies, or 1% of America’s largest public companies, represent 33% of the value of the entire S&P 500 index — Nvidia, Apple, Microsoft, Alphabet, Meta, and Amazon.
The U.S. Surgeon General is calling for mental health warnings on all social media platforms.
In a recent opinion piece in the NY Times, Vivek Murthy argued social media companies should be required to display mental health warnings about the use of their platforms.
With the average daily use at 4.8 hours for adolescents, Murthy is calling for legislation to “shield young people from online harassment, abuse and exploitation and from exposure to extreme violence and sexual content that too often appears in algorithm-driven feeds.” And restricting “the use of features like push notifications, autoplay and infinite scroll, which prey on developing brains and contribute to excessive use.”
Alabama Worldview listener grateful for making “Christ the center”
Wyatt Nicaud in Summerdale, Alabama wrote me at [email protected].
He said, “I am so appreciative of the Biblical worldview that is instituted in every broadcast. Making Christ the center of everything, including our news, is of the utmost importance.”
