More than 388 million Christians suffer high levels of persecution and discrimination for their faith. 1 in 7 Christians are persecuted worldwide 1 in 5 Christians are persecuted in Africa 2 in 5 Christians are persecuted in Asia Let’s continually encourage each other to be in prayer for brothers and sisters around the world who are being slaughtered, imprisoned and suffering because of their faith. Please visit @IDOP @Open Doors @The Voice of the Martyrs @Good Call Ministries to learn about the work of our dear friend, @Joseph Bonderanko, the subject of the book, KGB’s Most Wanted, and our dear friends at @FreeBurmaRangers, @AngelMinistries, @AEBM, @HIO Ministries, @TimothyProject and also @Hardwired Global whose mission and powerful work protects the freedom of conscience and belief for all people worldwide. God bless you! β€œRemember the prisoners, as though in prison with them, and those who are badly treated, since you yourselves also are in the body.” Hebrews 13:3

If this is true, it's not because they were white. It's because this was the center of Christendom.

This is the highest level of calligraphy mastery. The tips move like they are dancing. One hand. Two brushes. Chinese calligraphy has always been an art of energy and balance.

There are two photos below. One is of genocide, the other is of war waged against a terrorist state. Can you identify which is which?

An angel slumped on a lion that's finally put its head down. Canova finished this in 1805 for Archduchess Maria Christina’s monument in Vienna. She’s not even buried here. I keep coming back to the wing. It looks like it could lift any second, but it stays with the animal and the shield dumped on the step, with the kind of grief that's past shouting.

Part of what you're seeing in the response to that Lindsey Clancy case is the fruit of two things in particular… 1) Abortion. As emotionally awkward as it is to say, you cannot have a jury of women, some of whom have very probably killed their own children in the womb bc of "extenuating circumstances" or the "emotional difficulty" of going thru with pregnancy, and expect them to convict someone else as guilty of the thing they acquitted themselves as innocent from. 2) Feminism. REMINDER: Godly women are not "for women." They are FOR GOD. Women of God who love the Word of God do not WANT to be found being "for women" when it is "against the Lord."
