Ugandan pastor and family burned to death

A pastor and his family were burned to death in a house fire in Eastern Uganda, reports The Christian Post.

The bodies of Pastor Weere Mukisa, his 25-year-old wife, Annet Namugaya, and their two daughters, 7-year-old Judith and 4-year-old Sylvia, were found consumed in a fire set in the early morning hours of October 13th.

The pastor had been threatened by local Muslims for evangelizing among the local Muslim population. The pastor’s brother said, “When the three young Muslims converted to Christ, my brother started receiving threatening messages that he should stop any contact with the three converts, and that the act committed is against the teaching of Islam to not join the religion of infidels.”

Russia has gained control of Donetsk, Ukraine

The Russian army has gained control of 478 square kilometers of Ukrainian territory in the ongoing war, mostly in the Donetsk region in the month of October. That’s the first major gain since March of 2022.

The Kiel Institue of the World Economy reports that the Ukrainian conflict has already drawn $128 billion from Europe and $92 billion from the US. Meantime, Russia is increasing its military budget by 25% to $145 billion in 2025 — a full 32% of the nation’s government budget, reports Reuters. 

Archbishop of Canterbury compromises on Biblical sexuality

The leading cleric in the Church of England, Justin Welby, was asked in an interview last week what he thought about acts of sodomy. The Archbishop of Canterbury approved of the sexual perversion in these words.

WELBY: “Where we've come to is to say that all sexual activity should be within a committed relationship, whether it's straight or gay. In other words, we're not giving up on the idea that sex is within marriage or civil partnership.”

Some within the Anglican Church are now calling for the archbishop’s resignation.

Proverbs 25:26 points out that, “Like a muddied spring or a polluted fountain is a righteous man who gives way before the wicked.”
