It's Wednesday, October 23rd, A.D. 2024. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Somalian Christian attacked for leading prayer meetings Morning Star News reports that a Christian in Somalia, Africa suffered an attack earlier this month at the hands of his relatives for leading prayer meetings. Mohammad Abdul converted to Christianity from Islam in March. He now leads multiple groups in Bible study and prayer. This angered his Muslim relatives who have violently attacked him and his family multiple times. Despite the pushback, Abdul said, “You can beat me up more if you want, but I can tell you that [Jesus] has saved me. Whether I die or not, I live to serve Him.” Please pray for our persecuted brothers and sisters in Christ in Somalia, ranked second on the Open Doors' World Watch List of nations where it is most difficult to be a Christian.

Elon Musk giving away a million dollars a day until election Over the weekend, Elon Musk announced his America Political Action Committee will be giving away $1 million every day until the November 5 election. Registered voters in swing states are eligible for the prize and must sign a petition in support of the First and Second Amendments to the U.S. Constitution. The swing states are Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. On October 19th, John from Harrisburg, Pennsylvania won a million dollars. JOHN: “My name is John, and I came here to see Elon Musk and support Trump to be the next president. And, you know, when he called me, the first thing that happened, you know, I screamed, and it was a million dollars, and I was pumping my arms in the air, and I went up and actually meeting Elon. “I kind of forgot about the money for a little bit, since he's such an influential figure for guys my age who are working hard every day. It's really important to get out and vote.” Then, on October 20th, Kristine in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania won a million dollars for signing the free speech, pro-Second Amendment petition. KRISTINE: “My name is Kristine Fishel. I signed the petition. I took the time to vote early, and I think everyone should, too. The petition is fabulous because free speech, the right to bear arms -- these are things that we all have to remember as Americans how important they are and not to take them for granted. So, I think it's a way to actually bring people back to that and signing the petition. “Sitting in my seat when [Elon Musk] came on stage was so exciting. Hearing my name called was the surprise of a lifetime. It was so exciting, like, I don't win things, and a million dollars is crazy. So, I was super excited, and I still am.” Kamala: Musk “better behave himself or he will lose his privileges!” Speaking of businessman and free speech advocate Elon Musk, Kamala Harris is enraged about his participation in the election. Former Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr, who has now endorsed Trump, said this. KENNEDY: “Kamala Harris says that [Elon] Musk better behave himself, or he will, quote lose his…” HARRIS: “lose his privileges and it should be taken down. They are directly speaking to millions and millions of people without any level of, of, of, of oversight or regulation, and that has to stop.” KENNEDY: “And if Kamala Harris is elected, the powers behind her will quash that right.” New film exposes evil of Planned Parenthood founder Margaret Sanger The White Rose Resistance is releasing a new documentary on the life of Margaret Sanger, the founder of the abortion giant Planned Parenthood.

GRUBER: “We're going to expose and discover who the real Margaret Sanger was and how her attack and assault against the family in America explains our current culture of death and upside down world that we're living in today.” 80% of Protestants: Pastor has a duty to address current issues Lifeway Research reports 80% of Protestant churchgoers believe a pastor must address current issues to do their job. Sixty percent of Protestant churchgoers say their pastor addresses current issues in a sermon most weeks. Scott McConnell, the Executive Director of Lifeway Research, said, “As American culture increasingly includes fewer overtly Christian elements and more non-Christian ideas, churchgoers are hungry to know what the Bible says about life's issues.” 2 Timothy 2:15-16 says, “All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.” Former homosexuals march in Chicago And finally, hundreds of Christians celebrated their freedom from sexually perverted lifestyles on Saturday at Chicago's Lincoln Park. The event was led by the Freedom March whose repentant participants call themselves the Rainbow Revival. M.J. Nixon helped lead the first Freedom March in Washington, D.C. NIXON: “We are a collection of the most wild, radical, former LGBT individuals, alongside the body of Christ, coming together in this hour to lift up the name of Jesus. He draws all men to Himself. We've come together today to worship, to testify, and we are going to march today.” She added, “The Lord has called Rainbow Revival to go into the heart of cities and testify in the public square that entrapped, ensnared people can be freed from false identities – glorifying Jesus and making a fool of the enemy.” Romans 6:22 says, “But now having been set free from sin, and having become slaves of God, you have your fruit to holiness, and the end, everlasting life.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Wednesday, October 23rd, in the year of our Lord 2024.
