Persecuted Christians in Myanmar claim war crimes
Persecuted Christians in Myanmar filed a war crimes case against the government’s military regime last week. Five victims brought the case before a court in the Philippines, a nearby Southeast Asian nation.
The victims are from Chin State, Myanmar which is predominantly Christian.
Salai Ling is one of the complainants and is part of the Chin Human Rights Organization. He said, “We are a Christian people whose pastors are being murdered and whose churches and faith-based schools are being destroyed in a systematic campaign by junta forces. With this persecution of Myanmar’s Christians continuing, we pray that our brothers and sisters in the Philippines will hear our cry and grant us justice.”
Myanmar’s military took over the country in a coup in 2021, ruthlessly cracking down on protesters and targeting Christians. Please pray for our brothers and sisters in Myanmar, ranked 14th on the Open Doors World Watch List of nations where it is most difficult to be a Christian.
Malawi students stood up to Planned Parenthood
Last week, Human Life International shared a story about how students in the African nation of Malawi stood up to Planned Parenthood representatives.
The incident occurred on September 29 at the Natola Secondary School in the Dowa District of Central Malawi.
A representative of the pro-life organization said, “To the surprise of everybody, the students at Natola refused the abortion promoters sent to teach them and chased them away. The teacher was sure that it was due to what he called the ‘good pro-life message’ that Human Life International has been sharing with the students.”
Students even burned a box of contraceptives left by Planned Parenthood.
Ephesians 5:11 says, “Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them.”
Christian politician reinstated after being fired for saying pride “not a virtue”
Last Thursday, a British Christian politician received his position back after being removed for sharing his Biblical beliefs online.
Back in June, King Lawal tweeted, “Pride is a sin, not a virtue.” In response, the local Conservative Group at North Northamptonshire Unitary Council suspended him from his positions on the council.
After the council reinstated him recently, Lawal said, “What has happened to me has been appalling, but I am encouraged and grateful to the local group for reinstating me. Any Christian, especially those holding public positions, should be concerned by what has happened and anyone who cares about free speech in the UK.”
Lawal tweeted, “I just want to say thank you to the majority of people in the UK, and the rest of the world (Spain, North Ireland, USA). I’m inundated with phone calls, emails, letters, and messages of support and encouragement. It appears the multitude not only agree with what I said, but my right to say it.”
President Biden received $40,000 of laundered Chinese money
In America, the U.S. Oversight Committee released more information on President Joe Biden’s family business dealings.
Republican Rep. James Comer of Kentucky chairs the committee. Yesterday, he shared findings that Biden received $40,000 in laundered China money through his son Hunter.
Comer said, “In taking funds sourced to a [Chinese Communist Party]-linked company that wanted to advance China’s interests, Joe Biden exposed himself to future blackmail and put America’s interests behind his own desire for money.”
Plus, in an interview with Sean Hannity on the Fox News Channel, Comer talked about how President Biden’s brother, Jim Biden, received $600,000 fraudulently by promising that Joe could help the company in the Middle East. Jim Biden then turned around and gave $200,000 directly to his brother Joe Biden in a personal check.
