Currently, Brownback is working on a book about persecution in China.

Since then, the Middle East has been literally on fire.On this episode, Ambassador Rakolta provides an in-depth analysis of the Middle East and shares for the first time how the Abraham Accords were established, how they have been effective, and what's next in the region.

In June 2023, the Coutts bank closed the account of British politician Nigel Farage. While NatWest, the owner of Coutts, initially claimed that Farage failed to meet the Coutts eligibility criteria of holding £1,000,000 or more in his account, it was later revealed that Farage's account was closed in part as Coutts felt that his beliefs and values did not align with theirs. Debanking, the practice of financial institutions closing accounts or refusing services to certain individuals or businesses, has risen in prominence as its proponents argue that debanking is necessary for risk management and regulatory compliance in an increasingly complex world. They say that debanking helps banks avoid involvement in money laundering, fraud, or illegal activities and maintain the financial system's integrity. Critics, however, argue that debanking can lead to unfair discrimination and economic exclusion, particularly for unpopular religious or marginalized groups, and may even be used as a tool for censorship. They worry that debanking has been used to target religious organizations or individuals, infringing on religious freedom by limiting their access to essential financial services and hindering their ability to practice or promote their beliefs.

It's Tuesday, August 13th, A.D. 2024. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus.  (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson U.S. Christian leaders want India designated as dangerous Over 300 Christian leaders from Roman Catholic, Methodist, Presbyterian, Pentecostal, Anglican, and Lutheran churches have submitted a letter to U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken, calling on the US to designate India as a Country of Particular Concern in regards to religious liberties. The letter notes that persecution against Christians in India is now 4.7 times worse than it was in 2010 when Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi came into power. International Christian Concern places India as the third worst persecutor of Christians in the world today. Earlier this year, the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom issued a statement criticizing the Biden administration for refusing to include India and Nigeria on the list of Countries of Particular Concern. India's government is headed by a nationalist Hindu party.  And Nigeria's government is headed by a president of Islamic persuasion. As of 2022, the Biden administration has appointed a Muslim, Rashad Hussain, as the United States Ambassador-at-Large for International Religious Freedom. Kamala Harris most liberal Democratic presidential candidate Our worldview analysis of the Democrat candidates for the U.S. presidency found Kamala Harris as the most leftist candidate ever to run for the top office as far back as the early 1980s. For example, 52% of the Democrat senators were rated more liberal than Joe Biden in the 2008 legislative session, according to Gov Track.US.  In addition, 17% of the Democrat senators were rated more liberal than Barack Obama in the same legislative season. Regarding Al Gore, 43% of the Democrat senators were rated more liberal than him in the 1990s. Gore was the Democrat candidate who faced off with George W. Bush in the 2000 elections. In 2020, GovTrack marked only 6% of the Democrat Senators as more liberal than Kamala Harris. And, in 2019, GovTrack ranked Kamala Harris as the “most liberal compared to all senators.” Kamala Harris and Tim Walz are radically pro-abortion Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America issed a memorandum warning of Kamala Harris and Tim Walz's “fanatical” commitment to killing children in the womb. Both candidates fought for policies that would allow babies to suffer and die if they were born alive in an attempted abortion. Both candidates also opposed all legislation that prohibited the coercion of women into abortions. And both have enthusiastically supported increased government funding for abortion. Proverbs 31:8 instructs those in power to: “Open your mouth for the speechless. In the cause of all who are appointed to die, open your mouth, judge righteously.” Top 10 most crime-ridden cities Crime dominates in at least 10 cities in America. Newsweek puts the highest robbery rates in the country in these 10 cities — Baltimore, Minneapolis, Chicago, Washington, D.C., San Francisco, St. Louis, Philadelphia, Seattle, Denver, and Little Rock, Arkansas — all of them blue cities. Man pretending to be a woman sues Liberty University A man pretending to be a woman is suing Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia for what he calls “Unlawful termination” on the basis of his so-called “gender identity.” Jonathan Zinski is seeking $300,000 and a reinstatement to his position on the IT help desk at the Christian college. Liberty University's Doctrinal Statement holds that denial of birth sex by self-identification with a different gender is a sinful act prohibited by God. 191 Olympians embrace homosexual sin (Audio of Olympic theme song) The Olympics have turned homosexual, with 191 athletes claiming to have embraced the sinful lifestyle. That's up from only five in the year 2000.   And, according to Outsports, one third of President Joe Biden's delegation to the Closing Ceremony identified with a sexually perverted lifestyle. China tied with the U.S. for the most gold medals won at the Summer Olympics this year.  That's the second time China has taken first place in history.  The first time was in 2008. China has largest economy Based on Gross National Income by Purchasing Power Parity, China is now the largest economy in the world at $35 trillion. The United States is second at $29 trillion. And India has displaced Japan for third place at $15 trillion. Greece's wildfire In God's providence, Greece is experiencing the worst wildfire of the year, now approaching Athens and surrounding towns. The mayor of the ancient city of Marathon, Stergios Tsirkas, told CBS News, “Our whole town is engulfed in flames.” Half of the nation is under what they call “red alert” - at high risk of fires. Gold hit record high In economic news, gold posted another record high on Monday at $2,470/ounce. Meanwhile, Bitcoin is down 18% from its March high. And the Nasdaq is still 10% down from its July 9th peak. Elon Musk interviewed Trump last night The richest man in the worldinterviewed Donald Trump on his social media platform X Monday night. Elon Musk has endorsed Trump for president in the 2024 race. Trump is back on Twitter, a social media outlet with 126 million active users in the United States, compared to Facebook's 222 million. The valor of Euplius And finally, yesterday was a notable anniversary.  On August 12th in the year A.D. 304, Euplius of Catania, a Christian deacon from Sicily, was martyred under the Diocletian Persecution. His crime? He was in possession of the Scriptures. He unashamedly, loudly, and repeatedly declared himself to be a Christian, a follower of Jesus Christ, before he was tortured and beheaded for his faith. Let us stand for Jesus today. In 2 Timothy 2:12, the Apostle Paul wrote, “For if we died with Him, we shall also live with Him. If we endure, we shall also reign with Him. If we deny Him, He also will deny us.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Tuesday, August 13th, in the year of our Lord 2024.  Subscribe by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.
