This Finland is not the Winter War Finland.
2 Timothy 3
1 But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days.
2 People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy,
3 without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good,
4 treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God—
5 having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people.
6 They are the kind who worm their way into homes and gain control over gullible women, who are loaded down with sins and are swayed by all kinds of evil desires,
7 always learning but never able to come to a knowledge of the truth.
8 Just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so also these teachers oppose the truth. They are men of depraved minds, who, as far as the faith is concerned, are rejected.
9 But they will not get very far because, as in the case of those men, their folly will be clear to everyone.
A Final Charge to Timothy
10 You, however, know all about my teaching, my way of life, my purpose, faith, patience, love, endurance,
11 persecutions, sufferings—what kinds of things happened to me in Antioch, Iconium and Lystra, the persecutions I endured. Yet the Lord rescued me from all of them.
12 In fact, everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted,
13 while evildoers and impostors will go from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived.
14 But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have become convinced of, because you know those from whom you learned it,
15 and how from infancy you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.
16 All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness,
17 so that the servant of God a may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.
Huh?
Calling sodomy evil is now a “hate crime” there?
OMG!
Covid sifted the church per John MacArthur. He should know. He has an awesome Q &A about never backing down even when threatened repeatedly with long jail times. Now, more sifting… keep it up n get rid of the unelected folks playing church.
Leftist puppets need to be taken out of government and media in a hurry. Talk radio is not even listenable anymore, over 25% of air time used to promote homo.

but how far are we behind them?
The article is from January 22, 2022.
They were acquitted
Now we know why the globohomos hate Russia so much.
A list of countries that declared war on Finland during World War II:
1939-11-30 Soviet Union
1941-12-05 United Kingdom
1941-12-07 Canada
1941-12-07 Australia
1941-12-07 New Zealand
1941-12–16 Czechoslovakia (government-in-exile)
1944-09-15 Nazi Germany (after Finland switched sides)
If they lived in “evil” Russia they would be free to practice their religion.
In the 1940s we knew the arm and bayonet were “the enemy”.
In today’s world “the enemy” is the bible being stabbed.

This case in Finland was decided last week of March:
https://unherd.com/thepost/the-overton-window-for-christian-beliefs-is-narrowing/
Räsänen was charged for [a] tweet, and also for backing biblical teaching on marriage and sexuality in a radio interview. Her third strike was a pamphlet she had written for her church in 2004 titled…‘Male and Female He Created Them’. Bishop Juhana Pohjola was tried for having published the pamphlet.
Thankfully, the Court in Helsinki struck down the case on Wednesday… But for voicing opinions contrary to the orthodoxies of the day, the pair were prosecuted for ‘ethnic agitation’, a charge under the section of ‘war crimes and crimes against humanity’ in the Finnish criminal code. …under a 2011 amendment, the charge bans the ‘[public] expression of opinion or another message where a certain group is threatened, defamed or insulted’. Maximum penalty — two years imprisonment.
The trial did not just put Christians in the dock, but Christianity itself. The prosecutor quoted heavily from the Bible and grilled both parties on the theology of ‘love the sinner, hate the sin’. The word “sin”, she claimed — used over 400 times in scripture and central to the Christian concept of forgiveness — could itself be “harmful”. It didn’t matter that Päivi had said publicly that all were sinners, including herself. This was against the principle of “equality”, by the prosecutor’s own measure.
Thankfully, common sense won the day. The pair were acquitted of all charges. In a triumph for religious freedom, the court confirmed unanimously that it wasn’t for them “to interpret biblical concepts”. Recognising that while some may object to Räsänen’s statements, it concluded “there must be an overriding social reason for interfering with and restricting freedom of expression”…
Okay, I thought another former parliament member was recently exonerated by a court for just this same charge. Did the court’s verdict not stick?
