Persecution – American Conservative Movement https://americanconservativemovement.com American exceptionalism isn't dead. It just needs to be embraced.

I couldn’t care less about what selfies Kim Kardashian chooses to post on social media.

But I do care about all of the Christians that are being slaughtered in Manipur state in India…

U.N. experts have appealed to India’s government over the ongoing violence in Manipur state, which has left 187 dead, 70,000 displaced and hundreds of churches destroyed amid ethnic and religious tensions.

India’s government has deployed tens of thousands of soldiers to the region, but they have not been able to completely stop the violence.

Thousands of weapons have been looted from the police, and there is a tremendous amount of concern about what might happen next

The government has deployed about 50,000 soldiers, armed police and other security personnel to enforce buffer zones between the two communities. Despite these measures, mobs have looted more than 4,000 weapons and half a million rounds of ammunition from police in Manipur, according to official estimates.

Of course this is not the only area of India where this sort of thing is happening.

Many in India deeply hate the fact that Christianity has spread so rapidly in that nation in recent years, and the level of persecution just continues to get worse with each passing year.

Meanwhile, the U.S. government is being asked to intervene to prevent the genocide of 120,000 Armenian Christians by the Islamic government of Azerbaijan

A coalition of global organizations announced the launch of a campaign dedicated to ending the Azerbaijani blockade of the Armenian territory Artsakh, and ending the genocide of 120,000 Armenians who have been trapped in their own country for more than 260 days without the ability to access food, fuel, medicine and other life-saving necessities. These prominent organizations unite under the banner “120,000 Reasons” to signal to President Joseph Biden and the U.S. Congress that immediate action is needed to end this genocide, allow the delivery of life-sustaining relief and allow Armenians unencumbered access to their country. Without these actions, America could standby and allow the death and displacement of 120,000 Armenian Christians.

On Capitol Hill, the Tom Lantos Human Rights Commission of the U.S. Congress convened a pivotal hearing to address the genocide perpetrated by Azerbaijan against the ethnic Armenians in Artsakh. The ongoing blockade of the Lachin Corridor, the only road connecting Artsakh to Armenia, which began in December 2022, has severed access by approximately 120,000 Armenian residents in Artsakh to essential goods; including food, electricity, life-saving medication and healthcare.

For much more on the horrifying situation that Christians in Armenia are facing, I would encourage you to read an excellent piece posted by Zero Hedge entitled “Slow Genocide Of 120,000 Armenian Christians Happening Under Azerbaijan Occupation”.

If the Biden administration does not take action soon, thousands of Armenian Christians could die.

Do you think that the Biden administration will do the right thing?

Sadly, Biden and his minions rarely do anything to protect Christians around the world.

At this point, Christian communities are being regularly attacked all over the Middle East.  In the Pakistani city of Faislabad, a giant anti-Christian mob recently went on an extremely violent rampage

A mob attacked a Christian community in Pakistan’s Faislabad over accusations of desecrating a copy of the Holy Quran. Hundreds of people armed with sticks and rocks stormed a predominantly Christian area, vandalising several churches, cemetery and setting scores of houses on fire. Pakistani authorities have launched a probe into the matter and arrested nearly 150 people.

If you choose to be a Christian in Pakistan, you are literally putting your life on the line every single day.

If you were suddenly stopped by hardline Muslims and asked to recite the Islamic profession of faith, what would you do?

One Pakistani pastor was faced with this exact scenario on a recent Sunday evening, and his answer got him shot in the chest

A pastor was shot and wounded by hardline Muslims on Sunday evening in Jaranwala, Pakistan, a week after Islamist slogans were written on the walls of his church building, sources said.

The Rev. Eleazar Sidhu, pastor of a Presbyterian church in Kukranwala village in the Khanuwana area of Jaranwala tehsil, Faisalabad District, said the assailants ordered him to recite the Islamic creed before shooting him. He was returning home to Rehmat Town with an assistant after pastoral visits to church members when two bearded men stopped his motorcycle near the Khanuwana bus stop, he said.

“One of the attackers pulled out a pistol and asked me to recite the Islamic Kalima, [profession of faith],” Pastor Sidhu stated in the First Information Report (FIR) filed at the Saddar Police Station in Jaranwala. “When I refused and instead started to recite the Apostles’ Creed, the man opened fire, resulting in a bullet wound on the upper half of my chest [on shoulder]. The assailants fled after the attack.”

In neighboring Afghanistan, the Christian population has been reduced to an extremely low level because so many Christians fled the country once the Taliban took power.

Throughout the Middle East and in heavily Islamic areas of Africa, there are relentless efforts to eradicate the Christian faith.

For example, did you know that more than 18,000 Christian churches have been set ablaze in Nigeria since 2009?…

Both Boko Haram and Muslim Fulani herders have targeted Christians in Nigeria; since 2009, at least 18,000 Christian churches and 2,200 Christian schools have been set ablaze, and five million Christians have been internally displaced.

Why doesn’t the mainstream media in the western world ever talk about this? Of course the nation that seems to be the most determined to wipe out the Christian faith is North Korea.

In North Korea, those that are discovered to be Christians are arrested and shipped off to concentration camps where they are literally worked to death

The most dangerous place in the world to be a Christian is still North Korea, where a 2021 “Law Against Reactionary Thinking” subjects Christians to arrest, confinement in labor camps or even death. Even owning a Bible is a serious crime.

If you live in a western nation, you should be thankful for whatever level of religious freedom that you still have.

Because things are getting bad all over the globe.

Overall, it is being reported that over 360 million of us “suffer high levels of persecution and discrimination” because of our faith…

More than 360 million Christians suffer high levels of persecution and discrimination for their faith. “In the last 30 years,” write the Open Doors analysts, “the number of countries where Christians suffer high and extreme levels of persecution has almost doubled to 76 countries.”

All throughout history, Christians have faced torture and death.

And it isn’t any different in our time.

In fact, I fully expect that the level of persecution will greatly increase in the years ahead. Are you ready to lay down your life for what you believe?

For many Christians on the other side of the world, this is a question that they must ponder on a regular basis.

‘Raise the Alarm’: How Artificial Intelligence Could Harm Persecuted Christians https://americanconservativemovement.com/raise-the-alarm-how-artificial-intelligence-could-harm-persecuted-christians/ https://americanconservativemovement.com/raise-the-alarm-how-artificial-intelligence-could-harm-persecuted-christians/#respond Sun, 07 May 2023 10:41:16 +0000 https://americanconservativemovement.com/?p=192404 As calls to take a cautionary approach to artificial intelligence (AI) continue to percolate, a persecution watchdog is sounding the alarm on how the emerging technology could harm persecuted Christians.

David Curry, president and CEO of Global Christian Relief, an organization devoted to uncovering Christian persecution and advocating for believers across the globe, spoke with CBN’s Faithwire about the concerning ways repressive regimes, terrorists, and others might utilize the technology to cause further harm.

“The example that pops out that is a clear and present danger is China and their use of artificial intelligence to monitor the movement of their population,” Curry said. “They have a social scoring system which tracks church attendance and can prohibit children under the age of 18 from going to church or, if it can’t prohibit it, it will certainly punish you in your social score.”

He said this dynamic is already underway inside China, but added he’s also worried about what could come next.

“What we’re trying to raise the alarm on is the effects that will grow as more and more of these artificial intelligence technologies come online — the way in which the biases and assumptions that are built into this predictive modeling could affect religious faith,” Curry said. “We’re focused right now on the persecution of Christians, the monitoring of Christian activity, the censorship of worship services, pastors posting of videos — all the various implications of artificial intelligence.”

Among Curry’s concerns are the use of “deep fakes,” or videos that purport to show actions or infractions that never actually unfolded. He said he’s worried such videos — increasingly made to look believable with AI — could create new threats for the persecuted church.

Christians in many areas across the world already face retribution simply over stated claims; deep fakes could up the ante on their suffering and the associated threats underpinning such claims. Watch Curry describe a number of other concerns as well.

Strengthening Our Faith Is the Most Important Thing We Can Do to Prepare for What’s to Come https://americanconservativemovement.com/strengthening-our-faith-is-the-most-important-thing-we-can-do-to-prepare-for-whats-to-come/ https://americanconservativemovement.com/strengthening-our-faith-is-the-most-important-thing-we-can-do-to-prepare-for-whats-to-come/#comments Sat, 18 Feb 2023 14:23:43 +0000 https://americanconservativemovement.com/?p=190557 On Friday’s premium episode of The JD Rucker Political Report on Red Voice Media, I went over the ten things Americans can do right now to try to save the nation and save themselves. The two goals go hand-in-hand; we cannot save ourselves if the nation completely falls apart and we cannot save the nation if we’re imprisoned or dead.

The two-hour show is relatively comprehensive on most of the ten actions we can take, so instead of making everyone listen to the whole thing to get to the most important one (though you should definitely listen to the whole thing if you have the time), I’ll cut to the chase and offer the most important thing any of us can do.

Strengthening our faith in God is the big one. Those who are not Bible-believing Christians should consider the teachings of the New Testament to go along with the Old Testament as our ultimate guide for life. But even those who believe Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior should strive to become stronger in our faith before the “crap hits the fan” because very few of us have ever had our faith tested the way it’s going be challenged in the near future.

Would you and everyone in your family willingly die if asked to renounce Christ to save your life? Would you let your family members suffer if the only alternative was to abandon your faith? Would your family members let you suffer if given the same option?

In 2015, around 20 Egyptian Christians were marched to the beach by ISIS. They were given the option of renouncing Christ or getting beheaded on video. These brave men refused to defy their beliefs. They didn’t save their own lives while thinking, “I’ll lie about it now and God will know in my heart that it’s not true when I say I renounce the Messiah.”

If things do go very much south in the near future, then it seems very likely the powers-that-be will lay down as many speedbumps and roadblocks as possible to keep the faithful from practicing what they believe. Even if the crap doesn’t hit the fan, we’re already seeing constant attacks against religious liberties in America that often force people to make difficult decisions. This is only going to get worse even if we’re not facing the end… though it certainly seems to many of us that we ARE facing it.

My skillset does not currently include strong proselytizing. I hope to get better. I know it’s often seen in a negative light in America, but I believe it is a crucial component of our preparations for the end times if we are indeed facing very difficult days ahead. But this video isn’t as much about proselytizing as it is about alerting everything, faithful or not, that our unwoke belief systems will be put to the harshest tests possible in the near future. We must steel ourselves now and get ready for persecution. It’s coming one way or another.

As society deteriorates, it’s conceivable that many of us will be left with nothing but our faith. They can and likely will strip everything else from us, and while it’s important to fight for those things, it’s critical to never sacrifice our beliefs for the sake of worldly security.

Pain, suffering, and sorrow can pass, but eternal life does not.

Learn What Steve Bannon’s Prison Sentence Means as the Globalist Left Collapses America https://americanconservativemovement.com/learn-what-steve-bannons-prison-sentence-means-as-the-globalist-left-collapses-america/ https://americanconservativemovement.com/learn-what-steve-bannons-prison-sentence-means-as-the-globalist-left-collapses-america/#respond Sat, 22 Oct 2022 19:18:15 +0000 https://americanconservativemovement.com/?p=183651 The persecution of Steve Bannon, Alex Jones, the January 6 political prisoners, and America First patriots across the nation are all being attacked for the same reason. The radical leftists and the globalist elite cabal are desperate to keep their evil agenda going and those who fight them in protest or who disseminate the truth are the primary targets of the powers-that-be.

This is why they stole the election from Donald Trump. It’s why they censor anyone who speaks out against the jabs. It’s why exposing child groomers is forbidden but bringing children to drag shows is applauded.

This is all about the destruction of our society. They cannot “build back better” if things are going well. They don’t need a “great reset” if the system isn’t broken. As a result, they’re trying to break it and anyone who stands in their way is a problem. Here’s a video of Owen Shroyer from Infowars breaking down the Steve Bannon sentence.

According to Infowars and Banned.Video:

Owen Shroyer hosts The Alex Jones Show to break down what Steve Bannon’s sentence from the sham J6 committee means for the destruction of America as the globalist backed left tightens their grip on their political opposition.
