Chinese Government Adds Anti-Christian Propaganda to Movies for Kindergartners During Field Trip
Assessment: This is part of an ongoing campaign by China’s communist regime to teach children to hate God …
The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is unrelenting in its pursuit to wipe out Christianity from the country. Now the government is even trying to brainwash children as young as 3-years-old into believing that it’s an illegal religion.
Bitter Winter reports that nearly 100 kindergartners in the district of Jiaocheng were taken on a tour of a science museum last month.
The trip started out fun as they learned how to drive a train and ride in a helicopter. Then the 3-6-year-olds were subjected to a program about “preventive education” and were cautioned that Christianity is a “Xie jiao” or evil cult.
“But Jesus said, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of heaven.” And He laid His hands on them and departed from there.” Matthew 19:14-15
The children were given illustrated booklets, then forced to watch cartoons that delivered a negative message about Christianity. In fact, one movie portrayed The Church of Almighty God as wicked as people in the video warned one another against its “superstition.”

Bennett Praises God After Budget Passes: Calls Previous Government ‘Chaos’ As Described in Genesis
Assessment: Many on the right have criticized the concessions that Bennett has made to appease the Arab coalition members such as Mansour Abbas …
Israel has avoided another election after the coalition managed to pass the 2021 budget for the first time in over three years on Thursday morning.
After the budget passed by a vote of 61-59, Bennett tweeted: “It’s a celebratory day for the state of Israel. After years of formlessness and desolation, we have established a government.” The Prime Minister also bragged about overcoming the Delta variant of the coronavirus and concluded by saying “Praise God we passed a budget for Israel!.”
The words used when describing the previous government were ‘Tohu vavohu’ (תוהו ובוהו), the same phrase used in the Book of Genesis to describe the chaos that existed before God created light:
“the earth being unformed and void, with darkness over the surface of the deep and a wind from Hashem sweeping over the water (Genesis 1:2)
Prior to the vote, Bennett called it “the most important moment since the formation of the coalition.”
This moment didn’t come without controversy, however. Many on the right have criticized the concessions that Bennett has made to appease the Arab coalition members such as Mansour Abbas

30% Millennials Identify As LGBT
Assessment: “The proportion of young adults who identify as LGBTQ is roughly three times the proportion identified among the combined older adults of the nation …
While most millennials view Jesus and the Bible as at least “a little positive,” nearly one-third of America’s largest, most educated and misunderstood generation also identify as LGBT, and 75% of them admit to “searching for a sense of purpose in life,” a new report from Arizona Christian University shows.
The report, New Insights into the Generation of Growing Influence: Millennials In America by George Barna, who leads research at Arizona Christian University’s Cultural Research Center, explains in an analysis of the findings that a number of the daunting challenges faced by the generation of 78 million — defined in this report as those born from 1984 through 2002 m are deeply connected to their spiritual perspectives.
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 2Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” Matthew 11:28-30
“For understandable reasons, millions of millennials reject organized religion, or have qualms about religious leaders, and especially about religious people who may prove to be hypocritical.
Their experiences, observations and assumptions regarding religion, spiritual beliefs, and faith practices have produced a turbulent spiritual experience,” wrote Barna, who’s also an ACU professor focusing on worldview assessment, development and cultural transformation. Read More …
Another Afghanistan grows in Wisconsin
Assessment: Biden didn’t withdraw from Afghanistan. He brought Afghanistan to America. The skies over Sparta have never been as busy as when the Biden administration decided to dispatch 13,000 Afghans, including at least one pedophile, to Wisconsin. Writes Daniel Greenfield
Sparta, a small town of less than ten thousand souls, whose claim to fame is being the “Bicycling Capital of America”, could only watch as a population of Afghans outnumbering its own population created a new Afghanistan on the premises of Fort McCoy.
Travel stocks rally, stay-at-home companies plunge as pandemic wanes and tourism rebounds
Assessment: Pandemic? What pandemic? …
As travel industry executives tout the rapid resurgence of tourism and entertainment, the pandemic stock portfolio is getting turned upside down.
Airlines stocks are rallying alongside online booking sites, ride-hailing companies and Airbnb, after earnings reports showed clear signs of a recovery in travel. At the same time, stay-at-home stocks are sagging as borders reopen and health experts indicate that an end to the Covid-19 pandemic could come sooner than expected.
“When He opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, “Come and see.” So I looked, and behold, a black horse, and he who sat on it had a pair of scales in his hand” Rev. 6:5
“We’ve seen it everywhere,” Expedia CEO Peter Kern told analysts on an earnings call Thursday after his company reported a 97% jump in revenue from a year earlier. “Cities are picking up. International has picked up. Virtually every area has seen growth.”
Expedia shares soared 16% on Friday and rival Booking Holdings jumped over 7%. Airbnb surged 13% and closed out its best week since its IPO late last year, after the home-sharing company reported better-than-expected revenue and a 280% increase in profit.

The consulate for Palestinians in Jerusalem: A danger for Israel
Assessment: The US desire to open a consulate for Palestinians in Jerusalem challenges the determination that the city is the capital of Israel …
Joe Biden’s administration continues its efforts to appease the Palestinians and seeks to establish a consulate for them in Jerusalem.
Jay Shapiro notes that the previous administration decided that Jerusalem was the capital of Israel and therefore also moved the United States Embassy from Tel Aviv to this city.
“Seventy weeks are determined For your people and for your holy city, To finish the transgression, To make an end of sins,To make reconciliation for iniquity, To bring in everlasting righteousness, To seal up vision and prophecy, And to anoint the Most Holy. Daniel 9:24
Operating a separate consulate for the Palestinians in Jerusalem is a challenge to Israeli sovereignty in its capital and an attempt to divide it, says Shapiro.
He further notes that even in terms of US law, the Biden administration has a problem making such a move and Congress and the Senate must vehemently oppose that move.

DeSantis Slams Biden After Illegal Alien Posing As Minor Allegedly Murders Dad Of 4: This Is Your Fault
Daily Wire: Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R) slammed Democrat President Joe Biden on Thursday over reports that an illegal alien, who posed as an unaccompanied minor to get into the U.S., murdered a father-of-four in Florida.
Yery Noel Medina Ulloa, who recently turned 24, “was busted Oct. 7 in Jacksonville when he was found covered in blood after allegedly killing Francisco Javier Cuellar, 46, a father of four who had taken in the immigrant who told authorities he was 17,” The New York Post reported. “Ulloa, who turned 24 on Friday, had duped border authorities in Texas several months earlier by claiming he was a teenager named Reynel Alexander Hernandez — and even told his mom about the ruse.”
“Woe to those who enact evil statutes
And to those who constantly record unjust decisions” Isaiah 10:1
DeSantis’ office released the following statement about the incident:
This horrific crime is the latest example of how unfettered illegal migration costs Floridians’ lives. If not for the Biden Administration’s unlawful “catch and release” policy, Francisco Cuellar would still be alive today.
As Governor DeSantis announced in September, the State of Florida is suing the Biden Administration in federal court to put an end to “catch and release” endangering our communities. The free-for-all at the southwestern border puts all Americans at risk, as the Biden Administration and their NGO partners transport illegal migrants around the country with inadequate vetting and zero transparency.
Governor DeSantis is committed to doing everything in his power to keep Floridians safe. But as long as the Biden Administration persists in refusing to enforce our country’s immigration laws, Americans are at needless risk. How many more lives will be lost before the Biden Administration decides to uphold the law?

What was achieved when Naftali Bennett met Vladimir Putin? – opinion
Assessment: At the most fundamental level, Bennett needed to maintain Israel’s freedom of movement in Syria …
Naftali Bennett’s October summit with Vladimir Putin ran overtime. Its unscheduled five-hour duration meant that the prime minister could not return to Israel before Shabbat, and was stuck in Sochi until Saturday night. Yet Bennett’s time with the Russian president at the Black Sea resort was well spent, among the more consequential meetings the prime minister has had since assuming office in June.
At the most fundamental level, Bennett needed to maintain Israel’s freedom of action in Syria. Since the outbreak of the civil war a decade ago, and the ensuing growth of Iran’s presence, the IDF has repeatedly targeted Iranian positions and those of its proxy Hezbollah. Tehran’s pretext for involvement was to bolster its ally Bashar Assad, but its goals were much larger; to expand its sphere of influence, and ultimately to transform Ba’athist Syria into an Iranian satellite, a forward position from which to threaten the “Zionist regime.”
“Son of man, set your face against Gog, of the land of Magog, the chief prince of[a] Meshek and Tubal; prophesy against him and say: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: I am against you, Gog, chief prince of Meshek and Tubal.” Ez. 38:2-3
Israel decided not to merely observe the growing Iranian buildup, but to adopt a policy of active preemption. The logic of the Israeli strategy mirrored that of the United States in the much-studied 1962 Cuban missile crisis, when President John Kennedy declared that the mere positioning of Soviet missiles in the Western Hemisphere was an unacceptable provocation, irrespective of a decision on their actual use.
From Jerusalem’s perspective, the Iranians’ deployment so far from their homeland, and so close to ours, was in itself illegitimate, necessitating a robust Israeli response. Read More @ JPost HERE
Kroger to Accept Bitcoin Cash This Holiday Season
Assessment: Bitcoin Cash can be used nationwide at more than 2,700 Kroger Family of Stores, including Baker’s, City Market, Dillons, Fred Meyer, QFC, and other leading retailers …
America’s largest grocery retailer, announced today that it will begin accepting Bitcoin Cash. Starting December 1, 2021, the entire Kroger Family of Stores will accept Bitcoin Cash for all in-store and online purchases.
“At Kroger, we’re dedicated to providing our customers with the best shopping experience possible. Throughout the pandemic, cashless payments have been thriving, and we see cryptocurrency as a natural progression of the trend to deal less with physical money,” said Rodney McMullen, Kroger’s chairman and CEO. “Integrating Bitcoin Cash into our payment platforms lets us do just that—now and in the years to come.”
“He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads” Rev 13:16
Bitcoin Cash is a cryptocurrency created by a fork of the original bitcoin blockchain. During the separation, Bitcoin Cash introduced features such as bigger blocks that set it apart. In practice, this has led to Bitcoin Cash transactions being significantly cheaper than Bitcoin transactions, with costs often remaining under one penny even for considerable amounts.
The development of Bitcoin Cash is driven, among others, by Bitcoin.com, a company providing various products to use cryptocurrencies more readily in daily life.
According to the Bitcoin.com Map, thousands of stores worldwide already accept Bitcoin Cash and other cryptocurrencies; and Kroger could add hundreds within months. For customers, the check-out experience will just change slightly.
Instead of using their card or cash, they will be able to scan a QR code provided by the merchant that’ll automatically charge them the amount at the current exchange rate in Bitcoin Cash.
