• Johnson highlighted widespread concern over demands to impose Sharia law, conflicting directly with America’s foundational charter.
• Rep. Chip Roy launched Sharia-Free America Caucus amid reports of Muslim enclaves forming no-go zones in Texas, mirroring Europe’s failures.
• Johnson affirmed the Bible does not compel accepting immigrants who refuse assimilation, prioritizing national sovereignty and faith values.

House Speaker Mike Johnson boldly addressed the growing danger of Sharia law in America, declaring it utterly incompatible with our God-given Constitution that upholds freedom and self-governance.

Rooted in biblical principles of ordered liberty, Johnson emphasized that true assimilation honors the nation’s Christian heritage.

He added that it protects families from foreign ideologies that reject human dignity as affirmed in the Declaration of Independence.

Stand with patriotic leaders defending faith, family, and freedom—pray for wisdom in Congress to safeguard our constitutional republic.

“Sharia law and the imposition of Sharia law is contrary to the U.S. Constitution. Our Constitution is the greatest in the world.”

“But when you seek to come to a country and not assimilate, but to impose Sharia law — Sharia law is in conflict with the Constitution.”

• Hindu extremists mob of 100+ assaults house church in Madhya Pradesh, beating Pastor Ramesh Barela unconscious.
• Women stripped of modesty, children kicked with internal injuries during worship attack.
• Police file false conversion charges against victims while attackers named minimally.

Hindu nationalists stormed a house church in Kotwara village, Khandwa District, on February 7, assaulting 16 worshippers including women and children.

Pastor Ramesh Barela, leading the service, was beaten unconscious after extremists broke in with sticks.

“On the way to Naval’s house I crossed a village where a few supporters of the Hindu right-wing groups spotted me,” Pastor Barela told sources.

“These days they have grown their network real big; they have gotten vigilant, and word travels fast because of several WhatsApp groups.”

The mob outraged women’s modesty by pulling sarees and blouses, kicked children causing internal chest injuries, and vandalized the home searching for Bibles, finding none.

“I repeatedly told them that physical violence was not a solution to solving any grievance they might have had, and that we must sit and talk out whatever the matter was, but they continued to beat me,” Barela said.

Police hospitalized Barela and host Naval Singh, but filed counter-charges against Christians alleging illegal conversions, despite no such law barring voluntary faith.

Singh’s complaint named three attackers under atrocity laws for caste-based abuse and assault, yet anticipatory bail for Christians was denied.

Pastor Sunil Arya noted, “Naval gave their names to the police, but the police only named these three in the complaint and let the others be counted under a ‘mob’ – which does not have a face, neither a name.”

Believers worldwide must pray fervently for persecuted saints in India, echoing Christ’s words in Matthew 5:10-12 that blessing awaits those persecuted for righteousness.

Stand firm for religious liberty, upholding the God-given right to worship freely as families boldy proclaim the Gospel.
