North Korea sent 1,400 helium balloons with manure and trash to South Korea

South Korean Christian ministries have sent GPS-guided balloons carrying pages of Scripture and USB devices featuring the Bible into North Korea where owning a Bible can be punishable by execution.

In retaliation for what it calls “anti-North Korean propaganda,” North Korea, led by the dictator Kim Jong Un, sent more than 1,400 helium balloons filled with trash and manure into South Korea, reports International Christian Concern. The South Korean military has intercepted many of the balloons.

In response to the helium balloon-delivered manure and trash, South Korean officials resumed loudspeaker broadcasts at specific border areas. Subsequently, Kim Yo Jong, the sister of North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un, warned South Korea that these loudspeaker broadcasts, leaflets, and USB devices could soon provoke a “crisis of confrontation” between the two nations.

She added that the manure and trash balloons were “sincere presents” sent to the “goblins of liberal democracy who are crying for the guarantee of freedom of expression.”

Join me and specifically pray Ezekial 36:26 for Kim Jong Un and his sister, Kim Yo Jong, who are spiritually lost. The verse describes how God “will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh.”

According to Open Doors, North Korea is the world’s most dangerous country in which to be a Christian.

Trans World Radio, which broadcasts into North Korea from South Korea, received an email from a North Korean listener who said, “Without your programs, love and dedication, we would not have access to the Gospel of our Father in Heaven and we would be lost.”

Supreme Court allows Abortion Kill Pill to be sent through mail

Yesterday, the Supreme Court made a terrible decision.

It ruled against pro-life doctors and others who challenged the Food and Drug Administration’s decision to loosen restrictions on the distribution of the Abortion Kill Pill, reports LifeSiteNews.com.

In the unanimous decision in the case titled FDA v. Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine, Justice Brett Kavanaugh wrote, “The plaintiffs lack standing to sue to stop the law. Specifically, the FDA’s regulations apply to doctors prescribing mifepristone and to pregnant women taking mifepristone. But the plaintiff doctors and medical associations do not prescribe or use mifepristone.”

The Food and Drug Administration decided to make chemical abortion as widely available as possible as part of the Biden-Harris pro-abortion agenda.

Dr. Ingrid Skop, the Medical Director of the pro-life Charlotte Lozier Institute, previously said, “The FDA’s decision to weaken commonsense safeguards, removing doctors from the process, shows they prioritize ending unborn life over the health and safety of women.”

In addition to directly ending an innocent human life, abortion drugs are also dangerous for women.

Side effects and complications that accompany chemical abortions are:

• pain, possibly severe
• heavy and/or prolonged bleeding for multiple weeks
• fever
• infection
• incomplete abortion (requiring surgical follow-up)
• nausea and vomiting
• diarrhea
• feeling dizzy or having a headache
• short to lasting hot flashes
• hemorrhage
• blood clots
• undetected ectopic pregnancy, which is life-threatening
• and permanent infertility for an Rh-negative mother.

God sent two rescuers to save father and 2 boys in Colorado River

A week ago Thursday, when the inflatable kayak a father and his two young sons were using in the Colorado River flipped over in a rapid, the family became scattered in raging waters, reported KSL-TV.

Providentially, Eric Odenthal saw the terrifying crisis unfold.

ODENTHAL: “I just seen the kids floating downstream, struggling.”

Indeed, according to the Grand County Sheriff’s Search and Rescue, “The 10-year-old was reportedly wearing a belt-pack [personal flotation device] or PFD that inflated with a C02 cartridge. It flipped the boy over so he was face down in the water. And the 8-year-old was wearing a [life preserver] that was too big and failed to keep his head above water.”

Odenthal called out to his friend, Gaar Lausman, who jumped on his paddleboard.

ODENTHAL: “You need to go right now. This is really important. Get those kids out of the water.”

But, while the kids were scooped up, the dad, who had not been wearing a life jacket at all, was further away and barely able to keep above water, reports FaithWire.com.

ODENTHAL: “He’s getting pulled by eddies. His face is barely above water.”

Just when it seemed all hope was lost, as the father sunk down below the water’s surface, God sent along a second Good Samaritan. A man named Daniel Wright suddenly emerged on a jet ski.

ODENTHAL: “It was literally a miracle this guy showed up.”

According to the Grand County Sheriff’s Search and Rescue, Wright initially passed by the father because he didn’t see him.

WRIGHT: “Initially, I thought it was just kind of debris in the water.”

It wasn’t until the man on the paddleboard got his attention that he turned around and found him.

For his part, Wright scrambled to reach the father, who, at that point was reaching his hand up out of the water in a final attempt at being rescued.

WRIGHT: “He realized that was it. That was what he had left was reaching out to me. I had to help him. I had to get him.”

Once he got him safely to shore, Wright described what happened next.

WRIGHT: “I gave him a hug and I embraced him, you know, when I got him out of the water because it was an emotional moment.”

Grand County Sheriff’s Search and Rescue concluded its post by encouraging people to wear “properly-fitted, and properly-worn” safety gear.

As for Wright, he credited the Lord for his ability to be present and help out.

WRIGHT: “I’m just really thankful and I really just think God just had me right there at the right time.”

No doubt, he echoes the sentiment of Psalm 9:1. “I will give thanks to You, LORD, with all my heart. I will tell of all Your wonderful deeds.”

Virginia Worldview listener shares why he gave $500

Last night, I called Danny in Abingdon, Virginia, a Worldview listener who donated $500 to help keep this newscast on the air.

He explained what he appreciates.

DANNY: “I just like that you all provide an option for news that is filtered through a Biblical lens so that you’re reporting news and how it relates to believers in Christ, and how the Bible would speak to the news of the day. I think y’all might be the only option, that I know of, that provides that for believers. And I appreciate that and I want to support that and hope that that continues.”

Danny especially likes the fact that we cite two relevant Bible verses connected to two of our weekday stories.

DANNY: “When I see that Bible verses are referenced in some of the stories, it just helps me be mindful of the Biblical worldview is the truth, and that we need to constantly be bringing the stories and news reports back to the truth which is in the Holy Scriptures.”

He challenged other listeners to join him and make an online donation through our website TheWorldview.com.

DANNY: “I would just challenge those that value The Worldview in 5 Minutes, who support this because I think this is one of the only options that Christians have to get news from a Biblical worldview. We need to support that because it’s important and there’s not many other options, if any at all out there. Very valuable for believers to have that option.”

11 Worldview listeners gave $1,807

Toward our $57,100 mid-point goal by 5:00pm Central on Saturday, June 15^th to fund the 6-member Worldview team for another year, 11 Worldview listeners made a donation yesterday online.

Our thanks to Jay in Lees Summit, Missouri, Hannah in Leo, Indiana, Rachel in Washougal, Washington, and Christopher in Deposit, New York – each of whom gave $25.

We appreciate Faith in Coeur D Alene, Idaho, Jane in Shrewsbury, Pennsylvania, and Jon in Newton, New Jersey – each of whom gave $50.

And we thank God for the generosity of Michael in Sexsmith, Alberta, Canada who gave $150, Marcia in Franklin, Tennessee who pledged $25 per month for 12 months for a gift of $300, Katie in Hutchinson, Kansas who gave $507, and Barbara in Mesa, Arizona who pledged $50 per month for 12 months for a gift of $600.

Those 11 donors gave $1,807. Ready for our new grand total? Drum roll please. (sound effect of drum roll) $28,635 (audience cheering)

By 5:00pm Central on Saturday night, June 15^th, we need to raise $28,465 in order to hit our mid-point goal.

In an audience this size — with tens of thousands who listen through the 125 radio stations which now carry us as well as through our website and the Generations app, I’m confident that 20 Worldview listeners could each pledge $100 per month for 12 months for a gift of $1,200. Those 20 pledges would add up to $24,000. The remaining $4,465 could be raised through smaller one-time gifts or smaller monthly pledges.

Will you step up to the plate and help us raise the $28,465 we need by Saturday night at 5:00pm Central? Please go to TheWorldview.com, click on “Give,” select the dollar amount you’d like to donate, and click on the recurring monthly tab if that’s your wish.

Let’s see what the Lord will do through you!
