State Religion coming soon!

Chinese Province Forces Believers to Apply Online to Attend Church

 link   https://www.christianheadlines.com/contributors/christopher-eyte/chinese-province-forces-believers-to-apply-online-to-attend-church.html


A crackdown on spiritual activities is forcing Chinese Christians in the Henan province to apply online for permission to attend church.

The ‘Smart Religion’ requirements app created by the Henan provincial religious department does not have a legal basis, China Aid reports. There has been a drop in numbers attending churches because of the introduced measures.

Henan has a large Christian population, and believers must now register and make appointments for any religious activity via the ‘Smart Religion’ application. It was created by the Ethnic and Religious Affairs Commission of Henan Province. Muslims and other religions have also been affected by the same controlling directive.

According to China Aid, those registering first need to choose the intended religious venue and no key search words are allowed, such as ‘Christianity’ or ‘Catholicism.’

Personal information is then inputted to make a reservation: name, date of birth, phone number, ID number, permanent residence, and occupation. Church attendees must also give a reservation code and have their bodily temperature checked. Older people would be guided by officials in using the mobile phone application.

Do we truly think that this can't happen in the USA?

This in fact did already happen here as a trial run... 

Do you remember the approximate 2-year fiasco and shut downs that happen during the Corona Virus plan-demic?   Many believe this was a trial run and many believe this will soon happen again.

And what if it were to happen again?

We saw what happen!

We saw how people reacted.. 

We  saw how neighbor fought against neighbor... 

We experienced the inconsistencies and the bad and dishonest governing bodies literally creating rules and laws out of thin air -  for the sake of the "greater good".  

Church services were relegated to Zoom meetings ... and many were satisfied with that.  Threats and arrests were made.

Singing hymns was discouraged... Gathering and worship congregations discouraged while violent and disruptive leftist protests were encouraged.... 

The next time around will be better?... You think?


Pray so that you'll be able to stand in the evil day.

Attacks on American Churches Have Increased 174 Percent (article)

 



Attacks on American Churches Have Increased 174 Percent Since 2018: New Report


Michael Foust | ChristianHeadlines.com Contributor | Monday, December 19, 2022



The number of documented attacks on churches has steadily increased in recent months and years, with a dramatic uptick in 2022 in abortion-related vandalism related to the U.S. Supreme Court's overturning of Roe v. Wade, according to a landmark new report.


The report by the D.C.-based Family Research Council uncovered a total of 420 documented acts of hostility against 397 individual churches between January 2018 and September 2022. There were 50 in 2018, but that quickly increased to 83 in 2019, 96 in 2021 and 137 in 2022 (through September). There were 54 documented incidents of hostility against churches in 2020 – a decrease from the previous year that the report's authors attributed to the pandemic when much of the country was on lockdown or not traveling much.


The number of attacks on churches from 2018 to 2022 represents a 174 percent increase.



The report examined vandalism, arson, arson attempts and shootings. Most of the "acts of hostility" – 342 of the 420 – involved vandalism, the report said.


The report's findings mirror similar data by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, which found an increase in anti-Christian hate crimes: from 172 in 2018 to 217 in 2019, to 240 in 2021.


"Criminal acts of vandalism and destruction of church property are likely symptomatic of a collapse in societal reverence and respect for houses of worship and religion – in this case, churches and Christianity," the report said. "Americans appear increasingly comfortable lashing out against church buildings, pointing to a larger societal problem of marginalizing core Christian beliefs, including those that touch on hot-button political issues related to human dignity and sexuality."


Many of the acts of hostility in 2022 involved abortion-related violence. The report found 57 instances that "were directly tied to pro-abortion protests or contained pro-abortion messages" during that year. For example, four Catholic churches in Wisconsin this summer were vandalized with pro-choice graffiti. By contrast, there were only five incidents of abortion-related attacks on churches between 2019 and 2021.


Arielle Del Turco, the report's author and the assistant director of the Center for Religious Liberty at the Family Research Council, said the report's findings are troubling.


"The problem of acts of hostility against churches in the United States is widespread and growing," Del Turco said. "This is not a trend that should be shrugged off. When churches are targeted for acts of destruction, arson, or threatening messages, it has the potential to be intimidating – and sometimes, that's the intention. Within the past few years especially, outpourings of political anger have sometimes correlated with vandalism and other acts against churches. When faced with such blatant violence and disrespect against churches (and religion more broadly), our response must be to condemn these acts and reaffirm the right of all people to worship and live out their faith freely – including the freedom to live without fear that they will be the next target of such an attack."

Those who have the "Beast System" running on the inside of them will start getting sort of weird about others celebrating the incarnation of The Christ unto the world, and will display impulsive fits of anger, and hate.

Religion and Politics: is like Coffee with Milk!

 


Christian! Who has bewitched you to be so intimidated to preach and proclaim truth in all halls of justice, the public square, including the court steps?


There is no place where the truth of God can not penetrate! Or what do you supposed The Lord truly meant concerning us being "Salt and Light"???


Where are we posting our lampstand, up high or somewhere hidden?


Contrary to what so many believe, politics IS law, and law is in religion. God has spoken about it all.  Are you going to let the world system drown out the Christian message in your generation or are you going to pave the way for society on behalf of your children and grandchildren?


Have courage and preach Christ in season and out of season, and from the roof tops!

Our nation disrespects marriage (in rebellion to God)

 

Our nation disrespects marriage (in rebellion to God)


Have we reached that point of no return??


Our nation keeps shaking its fist to God.  Our nation has been given over to the globalist powers to usher in the construction of that new world order.  Who can stop the subversion? There are so many plants and moles, (foreign and domestic).  And sadly, not enough Holy Spirit filled voices to hold back or stall any further the Beast system.  

God has sent that delusion and the axe is being laid to the root of the tree...   I'm referring to JUDGMENT.  WE ARE BEING JUDGED.  However, God knows who are His.


Stand firm, God is still on the throne and nothing happens unless He allows it.  The Beast system must create a new morality before this satanic system eats itself and implodes into it's own black hole of depravity.


Listen to my latest podcast on this disrespect for marriage, the institution which God Himself created FOR US.  Marriage is not just for us to obey His command: "Be fruitful and multiply" (in His image) but also, by marriage we find value and understanding of our spiritual and intimate connection to God, our Creator -  as in, We are ONE BODY in Him.

However, the culture has continued trying to redefine what marriage is in overt rejection of God's intention for us in Him.

The culture can never succeed in this. They'll never be able to redefine marriage for this reason.  Because it's a supernatural and extremely physical thing that transcends the physical.

The bullying of Christians

 Here's an example (link to full article below) of that type of bullying which will continue to increase in this nation unless we push back.  Christians, this is what is meant by 

"Indeed, all who want to live in a godly way in Christ Jesus will be persecuted."- 2 Timothy 3:12

Movie night!: Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed (full movie)



Ben Stein's "Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed" is a movie about the freedom of speech suppression to which Intelligent Design proponents are being subjected to by the atheistic American academic dictatorship.


“With savages, the weak in body or mind are soon eliminated; and those that survive commonly exhibit a vigorous state of health. We civilised men, on the other hand, do our utmost to check the process of elimination; we build asylums for the imbecile, the maimed, and the sick; we institute poor-laws; and our medical men exert their utmost skill to save the life of every one to the last moment. There is reason to believe that vaccination has preserved thousands, who from a weak constitution would formerly have succumbed to small-pox. Thus the weak members of civilised societies propagate their kind. No one who has attended to the breeding of domestic animals will doubt that this must be highly injurious to the race of man. It is surprising how soon a want of care, or care wrongly directed, leads to the degeneration of a domestic race; but excepting in the case of man himself, hardly any one is so ignorant as to allow his worst animals to breed.

The aid which we feel impelled to give to the helpless is mainly an incidental result of the instinct of sympathy, which was originally acquired as part of the social instincts, but subsequently rendered, in the manner previously indicated, more tender and more widely diffused. Nor could we check our sympathy, if so urged by hard reason, without deterioration in the noblest part of our nature. The surgeon may harden himself whilst performing an operation, for he knows that he is acting for the good of his patient; but if we were intentionally to neglect the weak and helpless, it could only be for a contingent benefit, with a certain and great present evil. Hence we must bear without complaining the undoubtedly bad effects of the weak surviving and propagating their kind; but there appears to be at least one check in steady action, namely the weaker and inferior members of society not marrying so freely as the sound; and this check might be indefinitely increased, though this is more to be hoped for than expected, by the weak in body or mind refraining from marriage.”

― Charles Darwin, The Descent of Man (1871)

I've been CANCELLED!

 


ZOIKS!!! 
It was bound to happen. I got cancelled off of the Stereo online podcast app. It was fun while it lasted but under this fascist "1984" climate in the culture, it is what it is. I can still be followed on Clubhouse and Spoon, FB, IG, Twitter and YouTube. 

 I'll still be posting videos  from Stereo on YouTube as well as adding select talks from Stereo on my podcast: anchor.fm/trunews365

My last podcast on the Stereo platform was on the cancel culture I experienced when I got booted off of a talk on the subject of h*m*s*xuality...  And that topic is extremely protected by the techno-fascists believe me!  

They are becoming more and more desperate especially as they see themselves losing power in the polls during this voting cycle. 
Child sacrifice is being reviewed in SCOTUS, mask mandates aren't making any sense, and parents are flooding their school boards against CRT.  

Eventually, secular humanism collapses upon itself. 

"And the gates of Hell will not prevail against the Church" the Master said! 
Praise God! 
God bless!
