J.P. Morgan Blocks Christian Action Network’s Donations Through WePay.

In a shocking move, J.P. Morgan has blocked Christian Action Network (CAN) from accepting donations via WePay. This 35-year-old family values organization received the abrupt notice in June, halting supporters’ ability to donate quickly online.

“Once again, a financial institution has targeted Christian Action Network in a brazen effort to deprive us of much-needed funds,” said Martin Mawyer, president and founder of CAN.

J.P. Morgan did not explain, merely sending a one-line termination notice: “WePay is providing notice of termination, effective July 17, 2024.” Thanks for the clarity, J.P. Morgan!

This termination follows a troubling pattern.

CAN has previously faced shutdowns from Discover Card, QuickBooks, Global Payment Systems, and EpicPay. Two years ago, BB&T Bank (now Truist) severed its 25-year relationship with CAN without clear justification.

“In the rare cases we received an explanation, the reasoning could be used to define the word meaningless,” said Mawyer.

“Discover Card said CAN is a ‘reputational risk.’ BB&T said we weren’t using the account as intended, though for a quarter of a century we never deviated from how we used the account. Each month we would deposit credit card donations into our BB&T account and use the money to pay electric bills, water bills, or make equipment purchases.”

It’s no real mystery why CAN is being shut out of financial institutions, Mawyer said.

“Several years ago, I received a media call wanting to interview me about a group out of Oakland, California, called Color of Change, which announced plans to target financial institutions aiding and abetting CAN’s so-called hate campaigns.”

The group immediately told banks and financial institutions that CAN was an “anti-Islamic organization” that was “encouraging vigilantism and violence against them.” Color of Change went as far as posting the slanderous comments on a website called Blood Money.

CAN has never targeted Islam or Muslims for either violence or vigilantism, Mawyer said.

Upon learning of these false accusations, CAN’s attorney sent a letter to Color of Change, threatening to sue unless the slanderous words were removed, which they promptly did.

“It was a cheap shot for sure,” said Mawyer. “But even though they removed the libelous words from the internet, I think it’s safe to say they are still pushing this false narrative out to banks and other financial institutions.”

Mawyer said his organization never knows when the next termination letter will arrive, and it’s not just banks or financial institutions jumping on the de-platforming bandwagon.

“Our company’s insurance policy was canceled a few years back saying we were a ‘reputational risk.’ And last year Zazzle, of all places, a company we use to make mugs, suspended our account without explanation.”

The spirit of the anti-Christ is upon Christians, Mawyer believes, citing the Apostle John’s warning that in the latter days, “no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.” (Rev. 13:17)

In a way, Mawyer said, the multiple and persistent attacks to defund his organization are a backhanded compliment to Christian Action Network.

“The radical left wouldn’t give us the time of day if they didn’t fear Christian Action Network,” Mawyer said. “We’re not an organization that beats our chest or tries to sing our praise to the media, but the leftists know who we are, what we do, our numerous victories, and apparently every bank, credit card company, and merchant that does business with us.”

Regardless of the incredible and often overwhelming forces thrown at CAN to disrupt its operations, Mawyer believes the truth of this Bible verse will ultimately prevail: “And the God of peace shall crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus be with you.” (Ro. 16:20)

When jihadists opened fire on a “draw Mohammad” free-speech event on Sunday, one of their main targets was Dutch parliamentarian Geert Wilders, who traveled to the United States under heavy security to speak at the event.

Martin Mawyer from the Christian Action Network states, “Although Christian Action Network had nothing to do with this cartoon-drawing contest, and is not affiliated with the organizers in any way, we produced a documentary a few years ago entitled Islam Rising which explains Geert Wilders’ battle against radical Islam — and also includes his controversial film ‘Fitna’.”

If you’ve never heard of Wilders, this is the film to watch. In Islam Rising, you’ll learn about Wilders’ rise as a Dutch Parliamentarian, and his outspoken criticism of Islam.

“I don’t hate Muslims, I hate Islam,” he said, sparking a maelstrom of Islamic hate from Islamic forces throughout the Middle East and Western Europe. “There is no such thing as moderate Islam,” Wilders also stated, adding: “The Quran is a fascist book.”

Wilders risked his life to produce “Fitna” (meaning “disagreement and division among people”)-which provides proof of Islam’s true radical agenda. The reception was explosive: Al Qaeda placed a death sentence (“fatwa”) on him. Wilders was also banned from entering a number of European countries, included Great Britain, and he was ultimately charged and tried on charges of hate speech for producing the film.

In 2011, Wilders was acquitted of all charges.

Despite threats to his life and the constant risk of facing arrest and going to jail, Mr. Wilders continues to warn the Western World about the dangers of Islam.

In “Islam Rising,” Wilder states, “Mohammed said, ‘I have been ordered to fight against people until they testify that there is no God but Allah alone.’ The purest joy in Islam,” Wilders warns, “is to kill and to be killed.”

“The truth is,” Wilder states regarding the mass migration of Muslims to Europe, “Islam has always attempted to conquer Europe. And it has done so for centuries.”

But this time Islam isn’t trying to conquer Europe with armies, “but through the doctrine of migration.”

“For the first time in world history,” he says, “there are dozens of millions of Muslims living far outside the dark Islamic world. And that poses an enormous threat to us in the West.”

Wilder states that Europeans are losing their culture, identity and even religion to Islam.

“All over Europe, churches are emptying out, whereas mosques are shooting up like mushrooms.”

While native Europeans are losing their national pride and heritage, Wilders cautions that Islam is filling the gap with their own religious identity and practices.

“Burqas, honor killings, female genital mutilation are becoming more and more prevalent in the Europe of today.”

“Sharia statements, Sharia testaments, Sharia mortgages, Sharia schools, Sharia banks and, yes, even in the United Kingdom, Sharia Courts and even Sharia Barbie dolls – we all have it in Europe today.”
