Baptist Church Shattered After Pastor Targeted
The killing of a Baptist pastor in Myanmar’s Kachin state has heightened concerns amid escalating conflict. Pastor Nammye Hkun Jaw Li, associated with the Kachin Baptist Convention, was fatally shot in his computer shop by unidentified assailants. His death adds to the ongoing violence in Kachin since the military coup in 2021.
Beyond his religious role, Pastor Li was involved in anti-military protests and efforts against drug abuse, working with organizations like the Kachin Baptist Convention and Pat Jasan. The incident occurred in a township already experiencing unrest, exacerbating tensions in the region.
Following Pastor Li’s death, his family and local residents demand justice, though no specific group has been implicated in the attack. Kachin state has witnessed numerous casualties and displacements since the military takeover, with religious tensions entangled with political turmoil.
The arrest of another Baptist leader, Hkalam Samson, underscores the risks faced by religious and community figures in Kachin. The military’s aggressive actions against Christian entities, often accused of aiding insurgents, contribute to the conflict’s escalation.
The violence in Kachin reflects broader issues of ethnic and religious persecution in Myanmar, drawing condemnation from the international community. Persecuted groups, including Rohingya Muslims and Christians, endure severe human rights violations, prompting mass displacement and refugee crises. Addressing these challenges requires sustained efforts to combat abuses and promote peace in the region.
There is one problem with Methusalah’s age. The Hebrews marked time by a Lunar calendar, so he was only 969MONTHS old or approx 81 years old
Why am I not finding out if my answer is correct or wrong??
Methuselah is recorded as having lived the longest lifespan in the Bible, reaching the age of 969 years according to the Book of Genesis.
I have developed a severe case of depression. I can’t believe anyone about my Trb collection. I have a lot. Lately I have talked to some??trb agents and I keep having to buy one more thing to be able to cash out!! The solution keeps getting farther and farther away from my wallet. I’m just bummed tf out. I don’t know if it’s a scam from the get go. I’ve spent a lot of money (a little at a time). And I’m no closer than a year ago
I’m a Christian and will never deny my Lord and Savior. I sin probably every day. I ask his forgiveness every day. For also anything I might have done. Jesus knows me. I hope. I hope I’m worthy of his love and salvation. Jesus is the only way to get our country back. Our kids need us. I have known kids want the guidance we as adults need to give them. They love to know that they are loved. It costs nothing to be respectful to our kids. And respect is what they learn!! Let’s not forsake our children. You may have to live with them one day!!
Enock is the oldest as he went to heaven without dying.
Methuselah past on at 960 years.
