It's Tuesday, September 17th, 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 Kevin Swanson Communist Chinese persecuting human rights lawyers ChinaChange.org reports on the ongoing persecution of human rights lawyers, many of whom have attempted to defend Christians who suffer under draconian controls in the country. For nine years the Communist government in China has continued the repression of these lawyers, to include harassment and restrictions placed upon their relatives as well as young children. International Christian Concern also notes that the Christians arrested and imprisoned for their faith are those who have spoken out against socialism. Party officials have also reportedly encouraged thousands of Christians to take down crosses and images of Jesus hanging in their homes and replace them with pictures of China President Xi Jinping. In addition, Chinese Communist Party officials reportedly told citizens that socialism and President Xi would help them with health and financial worries instead of their Savior Jesus Christ. Some villagers have claimed they were threatened with losing state benefits if they did not comply. The Scripture warns of the man of sin, describing him as ”the son of perdition, who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.” (2 Thessalonians 2:3-4) China released U.S. citizen after 20-year prison sentence China has released an American citizen who has been locked away in a Chinese prison for 20 years. David Lin returned to his home in San Antonio, Texas on Sunday, as part of a diplomatic agreement reached with the US Department of State in July, reports Politico.com. David had participated in preaching tours throughout the 1990s, and supported the underground church in China. Trump survives second assassination attempt Former president Donald Trump, the Republican candidate for the 2024 presidential election, survived a second assassination attempt on Sunday afternoon at his West Palm Beach golf course, reports the Associated Press. Suspect Ryan Wesley Routh, age 58, had an AK-47 rifle aimed towards Trump, when authorities arrested him. Palm Beach County Sheriff Ric Bradshaw explained that in a subsequent press conference. BRADSHAW: “Now, in the bushes where this guy was, is an AK-47 style rifle with a scope, two backpacks which were hung on the fence which had ceramic tile in them and a GoPro which he was going to take pictures with.” The New York Post reports a truck belonging to the suspect sports a Biden-Harris sticker on the bumper, and Routh “has exclusively donated to Democratic candidates and causes since 2019.” The gunman had waited nearly 12 hours in a sniper's nest for Donald Trump — who was within 300-500 yards -- when the secret service spotted the rifle and fired upon the would-be assassin. Certainly, God's providential protections have been mercifully granted to the former president! Abortion on ballot in 10 states Abortion is on the ballot in 10 states for this November election, reports LifeNews.com. They include Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Maryland, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New York, and South Dakota. The ballot initiatives of Maryland and Colorado, if passed, would remove all restrictions on killing children in the womb. South Dakota is testing an initiative for first-trimester abortions. The rest are ballot measures allowing for abortion in cases of fetal viability. Majority of Americans want abortion legal The most recent Pew Research data indicates that 63% of Americans want abortion legal in all or most cases, while 36% advocate abortion to be banned in all or most cases. Additionally, 57% of Republicans want abortion illegal in all or most cases while only 14% of those identifying as Democrats would advocate the same thing. Democrats and Independents have become more pro-abortion in their views since 2010 — by about 15%. The Republican Party has remained about the same. The most pro-abortion states in America, according to public opinion, are Hawaii, Massachusetts, Nevada, Vermont, New Hampshire, New York, Maryland, Washington, Oregon, and Virginia. The most pro-life states, according to public opinion, are North and South Dakota, Idaho, Arkansas, and Utah. Ezekiel 14:3 explains the heart of a nation this way: “The Word of the Lord came to me saying, “Son of man, these men have taken their idols into their hearts, and set the stumbling block of their iniquity before their faces. Should I indeed let myself be consulted by them?” North Korea has 75-90 nuclear warheads A recent report conducted by the Institute for Science and International Security estimates that North Korea's nuclear arsenal between 75 and 90 warheads. The North Korean KCNA news agency reports that President Kim Jong Un plans to “exponentially increase the nuclear weapons,” and recently posted a report with pictures of a state-of-the-art Uranium enrichment site, containing somewhere around 2,000 centrifuges. Putin calls up 180,000 more Russian soldiers to Ukrainian war Russian President Vladimir Putin has ordered another increase of 180,000 in military troops assigned to the Ukrainian offensive to include 1.5 million soldiers, and 2.4 million personnel in total. That compares to a current staffing of the US military at 2.9 million personnel. Although the numbers are shrouded in secrecy, the Ukrainian and UK estimates put Russian casualties around 610,000. Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker scores And finally, Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker — known for his advocacy of motherhood and the defense of unborn children – might have angered the Left in this country, but he keeps Kansas City Chiefs fans happy. He kicked a 51-yard field goal in the last seconds of the game over the weekend, clocking a 26-25 win for the Chiefs. Butker has criticized President Biden for his “vocal . .. support for the murder of innocent babies.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Tuesday, September 17th, in the year of our Lord 2024.
