Praying at home may be illegal under Scottish abortion law
Scotland is banning silent prayer in private homes, according to one interpretation of new pro-abortion legislation passed by the nation’s parliament
As reported in the UK Telegraph, a letter has been sent to residents in an Edinburgh zone explicitly stating that: “Activities in a private place (such as a house) within the area between the protected premises and the boundary of a zone could be an offense if they can be seen or heard within the zone and are done intentionally or recklessly.”
Anybody living within 200 meters of an abortion clinic in Scotland is forbidden from praying silently. Those breaking the law will be subject to a fine up to 10,000 pounds or perhaps even an evening in the lion’s den.
“Now when Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went home. And in his upper room, with his windows open toward Jerusalem, he knelt down on his knees three times that day, and prayed and gave thanks before his God, as was his custom since early days.”
Eight people killed in missile attack on Lebanese church
At least eight people were killed in a missile attack on a Christian church in Lebanon over the weekend. The church building, a priest's house, and a 3-story office building for the Greek Catholic Church were destroyed in the attack.
According to a report from Christian Today, “the church had been sheltering people displaced by Israeli airstrikes at the time of the attack.”
Hezbollah drone strike killed 4 Israeli soldiers
In other war news, a Hezbollah drone strike on Israel killed four soldiers and wounded 61 others over the weekend. The United States is delivering an advanced anti-missile system to Israel.
The Terminal High Altitude Area Defense requires some 100 personnel to operate, and includes 6-truck-mounted launching devices. The system can intercept missiles at ranges up to 125 miles.
China deployed ships to block Taiwanese ports
Communist China’s People’s Liberation Army deployed ships and a record 125 aircraftsurrounding Taiwan over the weekend, and blockading Taiwanese ports.
China’s defense ministry also threatened more military action for any promotion of Taiwan’s independence “until the issue is entirely resolved."
Taiwan recording 280 homosexual faux marriages per month
Back in 2019, Taiwan approved of homosexual faux marriage and provided for homosexual couple adoptions last year.
The nation is now recording over 280 homosexual faux-marriages each month. Taiwan’s social disintegration was further accentuated this year, as the nation’s population began declining for the first time. The nation’s fertility rate is now at 0.87 children per woman— almost the lowest in the world.
Archeologists unearthed Armenian church from AD 350
Archeologists have uncovered what is believed to be an ancient church in Artaxata, Armenia — dating around A.D. 350. The structure was built in the shape of a cross, and ran about 100 feet in circumference.
King Tiridates III of Armenia was converted to Christianity in A.D. 301 at which time Armenia became the first Christian country in the world. The recently discovered remains of the church was built in the city where the king resided.
NASA’s Europa Clipper looking for life on Jupiter’s moon
And finally,
NASA ANNOUNCER: “10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Ignition and liftoff. Liftoff of the Europa Clipper, unveiling the mysteries of an enormous ocean lurking beneath the icy crust of Jupiter's moon Europa.”
The craft’s mission will be to explore the icy surface of the moon, in hopes of finding life, or the potential for life existing beyond planet Earth — which God created specifically for animal and human life. The Europa Clipper is the largest spaceship ever to launch from this planet — about 100 feet across, built to travel 1.8 billion miles, with the expectation of arriving in April of 2030.
Psalm 8:3-6 features this meditation about God’s world:
“When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, the moon and the stars, which You have ordained. What is man that You are mindful of him, and the son of man that You visit him? For You have made him a little lower than the angels, and You have crowned him with glory and honor. You have made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet.”
