Hundreds of Hindus attacked 14 Christians in India
As police officers watched in India, hundreds of Hindus attacked 14 Christians on October 30 in Chhattisgarh, after the believers defied orders to abandon their Christian faith and harvested crops from a communal farm, reports International Christian Concern.
Several of the Christians, including two women, were beaten with wooden rods and suffered head trauma and broken bones. The mob also demolished the believers’ homes, destroyed the crops they had harvested, and injured a police officer who had tried to help.
Nagesh Micha, a Christian rights activist, said, “The police, which are supposed to uphold the fundamental rights of an individual, have allowed 14 people to be beaten in their presence. This means there are higher authorities who are supporting the mobs.”
According to Open Doors, India is the 11th most dangerous country worldwide in which to be a Christian.

Franklin Graham urges Trump to seek God daily
Evangelist Franklin Graham tweeted, “Congratulations to Donald Trump on being elected the 47th president of the United States of America! I pray that you will look to God every day for His guidance and wisdom.”
On the Billy Hallowell CBN podcast, Graham added these cautionary words.
GRAHAM: “Our country, I believe, is doomed unless we repent of our sins and call upon the name of Almighty God and His Son, Jesus Christ.
“The entertainment industry, they're normalizing sin. It's in every program you watch on TV. They try to make sin normal. It has a dulling effect, I believe, on us spiritually. It takes the sharp edge off of us, and we just begin to kind of become ‘ho hum’ about it. We should be shocked. We should be embarrassed.
“We should never accept it within the church. Unfortunately, many churches have accepted sin.”
3 things Christian should do in wake of Trump’s victory
In the wake of Trump’s re-election, Pastor Josh Howerton tweeted three things that Christians should do.
First, “Give thanks. Our nation was given an undeserved mercy. It is a window for repentance. No Christian anywhere should’ve supported the policy platform that was mercifully defeated and saying that should never have been controversial. In fact, it should prompt deep reflection about what happened to the U.S. church…. It is not wrong to celebrate and give thanks today for being spared from something our rebellious nation deserved … ‘When wicked things perish, there are shouts of joy’ — Proverbs 11:10”
Second, “Pray. Not only because we are commanded to pray for our governing leaders in 1 Timothy 2:1, but because of the situation. We elected Jehu, a flawed leader who defeated a greater evil, not Josiah, a righteous l
