Evangelicals in Bolivia say they are “deeply worried” about Bolivia’s new Penal Code, which could sentence evangelicals to up to 12 years in prison.

Christians are concerned the Penal Code, which Bolivian President Evo Morales is expected to approve, could lead to a ban on evangelism and “state abuse” against Christians.

The law warns against anyone who “”recruits, transports, deprives of freedom or hosts people with the aim of recruiting them to take part in armed conflicts or religious or worship organizations.” Those found guilty could face between five to 12 years in prison.

The National Association of Evangelicals in Bolivia has launched a National Emergency Commission that will analyze the impact of the new law.

“We express our most resolute rejection of the inclusion of our ministerial activities in the list of possible conducts that go against the law,” reads a statement by the group.

“The legislator forgets that the evangelical Christian churches in Bolivia are religious organizations recognized by the Bolivian state, and, therefore, legal entities.”

Many have already protested the new law at a march on Jan. 16 and evangelical churches in the country have scheduled a day of prayer and fasting for Jan. 21.

Bolivia is predominantly Roman Catholic, according to the Christian Post. Evangelicals and Pentecostals are about 8 percent of the population, which…

Fixer Upper stars Chip and Joanna Gaines recently announced that they are pregnant with their fifth child. While the majority of viewers and fans shared the couple’s joy and congratulated them, a radical feminist recently wrote a piece in which she calls them “irresponsible.”

As ChristianHeadlines.com previously reported, Chip posted on Instagram: “Gaines party of 7.. (If you’re still confused.. WE ARE PREGNANT).”

Joanna also posted a video of the baby’s ultrasound on Twitter, captioning it, “@chipgaines swears he can already tell it’s a boy. Look at the little heartbeat!!”

Although the Gaineses are looking forward to taking a break from their TV show and focusing on their family, feminist Kristen Pyszczyk doesn’t share their happiness.

“It’s not an exaggeration to say that the survival of our species depends” on population control,” she wrote in an article published by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. Even though population control “carries with it associations with eugenics and other nasty historical events…we still need to talk about it,” she continued.

“[W]omen need to be presented with options for a fulfilling life that don’t involve taking 20 years of their lives to care for offspring,” Pyszczyk added. 

According to LifeSiteNews.com, she also said that people who have too many children should be…

A Christian group is suing the University of Iowa for shutting them down after they refused to allow a gay student to hold a position of leadership within the organization.

FoxNews.com reports that the group, called the Business Leaders in Christ, meets weekly for Bible study and focuses its efforts on service projects. Its goal is to teach students “how to continually keep Christ first in the fast-paced business world.”

The conflict first began when a now-former member of the group, Marcus Miller, who identifies as gay, was rejected when he applied to serve as the group’s vice president. Although the group allows anyone to attend, it reserves positions of leadership for those willing to affirm its statement of belief, which says that they “embrace, not reject, their God-given sex,” and that “Every other sexual relationship beyond this is outside of God’s design and is not in keeping with God’s original plan for humanity.”

Because the group would not allow him to be in a position of leadership, Miller filed a complaint with University of Iowa faculty, which spiraled into the current lawsuit between Business Leaders in Christ and the University.

The Christian group’s attorney, Eric Baxter from the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty, stated, “Every organization to exist has to be able to select leaders who embrace its mission. You would never ask an…
