PGC – Chrisitanity comes in many variations. Anyone who has read scripture well, especially the Old Testament, knows how diverse scripture is in the people of many races who have contributed to the story of the cross and the empty tomb, so it’s no surprise that Christianity has always been a faith that can be adopted by multiplicities of peoples throughout the world.
Christianity in Africa might be, at present, more vital, more developed in many ways than it is right here in Amereica, and even more likely, in Europe. This factor might be giving European Christian Evangelicalism a desperately needed shot in the arm as the migrants from Africa are bringing their faiths with them, evangelical Christianity.
And they’re not the only Christians coming in from around the world that are adding to European Evangelical Christianity.
Migrant Christians from South America, Asia and Africa are boosting evangelism in Europe, according to a new report from European Christian Mission (ECM).
‘Europe 2021 – A Missiological Report’ is authored by Jim Memory, a member of the ECM international leadership team and lecturer in European mission at All Nations Christian College.
He writes: “Europe is perhaps the greatest challenge…
PGC – The Taliban have had made major progress reclaiming lost territory after the United States pulled out of Afghanistan. Which Empire is next to try to tame the mountains of Afghanistan? China?
The powers that be in Europe were not necessarily JUST rescuing refugees from war-torn countries in real need during this whole last decade, they were enticing the youth away from their families, literally paying them to immigrate to Europe.
That’s the charge that Tunisia is making. They are accusing the Europeans of paying their valued young to leave them, to go to Europe, and the process is now Tunisia’s ties to Europe as the ones without their loved ones are building up resentment over the whole affair.
Tunisia’s leader is claiming that some desperate youths are being paid to try to leave Tunisia illegally for Europe, saying the goal is to damage the country from within and hurt its ties with European nations
PGC – 5 Christians were arrested in China for daring to attend a Christian conference. They were all Chinese citizens whose government has made it illegal for human beings to worship Christ in a way that does not align with the Chinese Communist Party.
You could say these Christians were cancelled for having bad ideas, dangerous thoughts, hate speech, as defined by the Chinese Communist Party.
Five Christians with Xuncheng Reformed Church in Taiyuan, Shanxi Province Chinese were arrested by authorities last month because they attended the “KL2020 Gospel and Culture” conference more than one year ago.
Preacher An Yankui said a church member named Zhang Ligong was detained on July 13 and remained in police custody for 15 days. On the day of his release, two more church members were arrested when they arrived to pick up Zhang, according to International Christian Concern (ICC).
China says its development of a world-class military is really about being the benevolent dictator of the world, though you have to read between the soft power lines to figure that out.
When extremely heavy rainstorms devastated central China in July, it was hard not to notice the troops of the PLA on dams, reservoirs and riverbanks — the most dangerous areas in the battle against floods.
Did Iran launch a drone strike on an oil tanker in the Arabian sea? Us and UK representatives claim that’s exactly what happened on July 29th, and they demand a recompense to the offending nation, Iran, from the UN.
The United States and the United Kingdom on Sunday accused Iran of Thursday’s drone strike on an oil tanker that resulted in two deaths.In separate statements, Secretary of State Antony Blinken and British Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab said they believe Iran was behind the deadly attack in the Arabian Sea. Israel first accused Tehran of issuing the July 29 attack, but Iran has denied involvement.
“Upon review of the available , we are confident that Iran conducted this attack,…
For daring to believe homosexuality is a sin, one Finnish Politician is at risk of going to jail, and her Lutheran family are not happy about it.
Regardless of what you believe, if you favor criminalizing people for calling homosexuality is a sin, you favor tyranny, for the tyrant won’t stop using the power you gave them, to define ‘proper thinking.’
Lutheran bishops have decried the “egregious” actions of Finland in prosecuting a Christian politician over her views on sexuality and marriage.
Päivi Räsänen, a member of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Finland and former Minister of the Interior, has been charged with hate speech against homosexuals.
The charge is in connection to her views on sexuality expressed on social media, a talk show, and in a 2004 booklet called “Male and Female He Created Them.”
If found guilty, she faces up to six years in prison.
The decision to prosecute has been condemned by the International Lutheran Council (ILC), who called it outrageous and unfair.
According to TFI Global, an India-based global news service, citizens of Iran are beginning to openly shun authoritarian Islam. The anti-regime protests are in their third week, despite violent responses, mostly over such things as lack of water due to a nationwide draught, lack of electricity, and Iran’s foreign policy which sees billions of dollars wasted on adventures that do not serve the Iranian people.
Demonstrators in major Iranian cities have called for the death of their leaders and an end to the religious system. One common cry is “no Gaza, no Lebanon, I sacrifice my soul for Iran”, a cry that has surfaced in almost every protest since the massive 2009 protests. For the most part, Democrats has essentially been soft on or turned a blind eye to such protests, for instance in 2009 President Obama did nothing to show any tangible support for the protests.
Deaths, injuries, and widespread arrests and detentions are continuously happening as vans show up in neighborhoods and pull out 500 activists at a time and then disappearing them. Far from causing the protests to stop without their now detained leaders, new leaders keep stepping forward and the protests persist. One openly wonders if some Democrats look on this oppression and wish they too could round up their opponents, based on the rhetoric of many Democratic leaders and the press who are using January 6th as a casus belli to oppress all Republicans.
It is hard to predict the stability of the regime which is being propped up by Russia and China and which the current US Administration seems to tacitly support and is willing to “negotiate with” to ease sanctions and further boost the regime. The alliance of authoritarians from China and Russia and even America’s Democratic Party establishment against freedom sees three distinctly different forms of authoritarianism colluding to prop up yet a fourth version of authoritarianism. It seems that what connects them is a fundamental belief that the few should lord over the many and that this is best for stability.
From America’s secular hedonism to Iran’s Islamist cultism, the common theme is that whatever the ruling class believes must and can be imposed by force on everyone. Any authoritarian government, or would-be authoritarians (the US is not an authoritarian state despite the outlandish and fantastical aspirations of the Democratic Party establishment and its lunatic fringe base), would naturally react against any popular uprising. This is the reason why the Democrats cannot bring themselves to side with the Iranian people in a meaningful and substantive way.
Azadi, meaning freedom, is the craving of what appears to at least be a growing plurality of Iranians and any craving for total freedom will be shunned by every authoritarian of every stripe, on principle. The problem for Azadi in Iran is that the movement is not presently capable of meeting force with force and nor does it have any tangible support from any outside power.
While America tears itself apart through reductionist materialism that sets humanity’s worth according to its melatonin, genitalia, and sexual preference, China is rushing forward in its efforts to catch up to the possibly former republic of America in the Space Race. Its Space Station is humming along and preparing to engage in a thousand scientific experiments that are sure to bring ‘hope’ to the world.
China launched the core of its space station in April, and sent three astronauts up in June. But although the space station probably won’t be complete until late 2022, there is already a long queue of experiments from across the world waiting to go up. Scientists in China told Nature that…
Yesterday, June 28th, 2021, a Chinese national was wounded after an attack was executed in Karachi, Pakistan. The assailant used a gun despite Pakistan’s strict antigun laws to target Chinese citizens for death as China is beginning to extend its presence into foreign lands that don’t appreciate Chinese imperialism any more than they appreciated American imperialism.
This news is not as significant as how China is responding to the action, choosing to brand this as an “isolated incident,” despite the recent bus bombing in the region of Kohistan, Pakistan. 9 Chinese nationals, all engineers, were killed in that attack.
This move, to this writer, seems to be more about the dome4stic audience at home than the audience abroad, especially the Pakistani one, as the CCP will have to use its media corporations (in the same way the DNC does here in America) to convince the Chinese whatever they need to convince them to push the narratives forward that keep them in power and extend it.
As more Chinese die in foreign lands as a result of Chinese imperialism, this effort will become increasingly difficult even for the CCP to manage.
It was the Chinese foreign ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian who labeled the assault an “isolated” incident not indicative of any collective sentiment by the Pakistani people themselves.
