    Killed For Serving Jesus in Afghanistan

    KABUL, Afghanistan — Their last meal was a picnic in the forest in the Sharrun Valley, high in the Hindu Kush mountains of northern Afghanistan. Returning home from a three-week trek on foot to deliver free medical care to the remotest regions of the country, the aid workers — six Americans, a Briton, a German and four Afghans — had just finished eating when they were accosted by gunmen with long dyed-red beards, the police said. The gunmen marched them into the forest, stood them in a line and shot 10 of them one by one. The police found their bodies, seven men and three women, on Friday, the Badakhshan Province police chief, Gen. Aqa Noor Kentoz, said Saturday.

    Man Kills Girlfriend and Drinks Her Blood

    Man Kills Girlfriend and Drinks Her Blood

    BARTOW, Fla. (AP) – Bail has been denied for a 42-year-old central Florida man accused of stabbing a friend to death and then drinking his blood. A judge denied bail for Mauricio Mendez Lopez who made his first court appearance Thursday. In court Lopez said he had been drinking and had no memory of the incident which happened Sunday. Lopez was picked up Wednesday after he was spotted by a citizen. He is accused of killing Macario Cruz in a house they shared in Bartow. A third resident, Cruz’s sister-in-law Mariella Mendez, told police that Lopez fatally stabbed Cruz because he was having an affair with her. Lopez is the uncle of Mendez and Cruz’s wife, who lives in Mexico. A police report shows the men had an argument in which Lopez struck Cruz in the face with a 15-pound dumb bell. He then allegedly threatened to kill them both unless the relationship ended. Authorities say Lopez returned later and stabbed Cruz to death. Mendez told police Lopez left with a plastic cup in his hand that appeared to hold blood. She said he drank from the cup in a strange ritual from their native Mexico.

    Mormon Church Supports Gay Rights

    Mormon Church Supports Gay Rights

    SALT LAKE CITY (AP) | The Mormon Church for the first time has announced its support of gay rights legislation, an endorsement that helped gain unanimous approval for Salt Lake city laws banning discrimination against gays in housing and employment.

    The Utah-based church’s support ahead ofSalt Lake City Council’s Tuesday night vote came despite its steadfast opposition to gay marriage, reflected in the high-profile role it played last year in California’s Proposition 8 ballot measure that barred such unions there.

    “The church supports these ordinances because they are fair and reasonable and do not do violence to the institution of marriage,” said Michael Otterson, the director of public affairs for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

    Signs on the Earth: Increasing Sin

    Signs on the Earth: Increasing Sin

    One of the obscure verses in the Bible that is not often referenced when speaking of the “Last Days” and the return of Jesus, is in Matthew Chapter 24:

    Matthew 24:38-39 For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.

    The days of Noah were marked by such an increase in sin across the earth, that the Lord felt it necessary to destroy all mankind and start afresh with Noah and his family. If we go back to the Book of Genesis we get a hint as to what was occurring during those “days of Noah”.
