However, I don’t see any indication for that.
I find it odd that I have only just been receiving emails from Blogger a few days after I logged in for the first time in ages.
These emails state:
'Your content has violated our Malware and Viruses policy. Please visit our Community Guidelines page linked in this email to learn more.'
But when I log into Blogger it says nothing about viruses and malware, but instead states that it is the content that is at issue.
I am finding this quite odd and I suspect there is more to this.

A Christian gaming group is creating a game about fighting a shadow government, but they need help to receive the funds to do it. They have a website and a Kickstarter page. Christian gamers need all the support they can get. It's hard to find decent games out there that want to shine the Light into the world. I'm thankful for people and gamers like these.<br />

*By the way, I have no affiliation with this game company (Jesus is Lord games) even though my blog has a similar name - Jesus is Lord Forever (since 2007). I just happened to come across their game and wanted to support them.<br />

<br /><br />Gao Released - Aug. 7, 2014<br /><br />In 2007, he was arrested and spent over 50 days behind bars where he was tortured. “I was beaten so badly that my whole body began shaking uncontrollably on the floor,” Gao wrote in an open letter.<br /><br />Gao last reappeared out of police custody in April 2010. He told the Associated Press that he had been shunted between detention centers, farmhouses and apartments across northern China. Security forces repeatedly abused him, beating him with electric batons, pistol-whipping him and holding burning cigarettes close to his eyes.<br /><br />“Not only is it now extremely difficult for me to make my voice heard, but it is also extremely dangerous,” Gao wrote in an essay in 2009. “In the past three-plus years, the authorities invested a great deal of manpower, physical resources and funds, and employed the most merciless methods, to achieve their goal of silencing me.”<br /><br />Christian human rights lawyer Gao Zhisheng was released from prison on Aug. 7, 2014. His lawyer told BBC News that Gao has been “utterly destroyed” after three years in jail. He is emotionless, “basically unintelligible” and has lost teeth through malnutrition. Gao’s lawyer reported that Gao is “not capable of holding any conversation and there are many occasions where he’s just literally just muttering to himself.” He was first arrested in 2009, and released briefly in 2010 before disappearing shortly afterward. In 2011, state media said he had been jailed again for violating probation rules<br /><br />Background: <br />Since 2005, Gao has been repeatedly arrested, imprisoned and severely tortured by Chinese authorities, mostly for his human rights work. In 2006, he and a group of prominent human rights lawyers created the Association of Human Rights Attorneys for Chinese Christians. That same year, Gao was sentenced to five years of probation for inciting “subversion of the state.” After serving three years in prison, Gao was supposedly released on probation but he disappeared for extended periods of time.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.prisoneralert.com/pprofiles/vp_prisoner_195_profile.html#">http://www.prisoneralert.com/pprofiles/vp_prisoner_195_profile.html#</a><br /><br /><br />© 2014 The Voice of the Martyrs<br /><a href="http://www.persecution.com/">http://www.persecution.com/</a></div>

Hau and his brother were reportedly arrested on <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_336503293" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ">March 15</span></span>,
one day after the arrest of Hau’s wife and sister-in law,
and told to bring bail for their wives’ release. The reason for the women’s arrest is unclear,
as police did not present an arrest warrant. On <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_336503294" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ">March 17</span></span>,
Hau’s brother heard the sounds of a violent beating coming from Hau’s cell. As Hau was removed from his cell,
his brother-in-law saw that he was “completely limp,
as if he was dead,
with purple marks on his throat.” On <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_336503295" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ">March 18</span></span>,
police claimed that Hau had died from putting his hand into an electric
socket. The local church community described Hau as a courageous and
compassionate person who defended the church he helped to build and
refused to pay bribes to officials.[/quote]<br />

<span style="font-weight: normal;">Pastor Robert Asserian,
of the Assemblies of God church in Tehran,
was arrested and taken to an unknown location on May 21,
after a large detachment of Islamic Security agents raided the church
and arrested everyone present. Security agents first raided Pastor
Asserian’s home,
confiscating many of his belongings. They then searched the church,
seizing books,
documents and some equipment. The arrests and raid are thought to be in
retaliation for the church’s refusal to close its doors after Islamic
officials offered to release Pastor Farhad and his wife (arrested in
December 2011) if the church would close. A source from the church said,
“The pressure has become unbearable; the government authorities
constantly threaten the church leaders and their families with
imprisonment,
unexplained accidents,
kidnapping and even with execution. We cannot go on like this.”[/quote]<br />

<span style="font-weight: normal;">On May 14,
Pastor Faye Pama,
Secretary of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) Borno State and
Senior Pastor of Rhema Assembly Church,
was murdered by Boko Haram militants. The attackers reportedly followed
Pastor Pama to his home in Maiduguri after he left a Bible study at his
church. The gunmen dragged Pastor Pama out of his house and shot him to
death in front of his 17-year-old daughter as she pleaded for his life.
Pastor Pama was a husband and father of four children,
ages 19,
17,
11 and 6. He served in ministry leadership for more than 26 years and
believed that Muslims could be won to Christ only by showing them love,
rather than through fighting. The Muslim militant group Boko Haram has
reportedly killed more than 4,000 people since 2009.[/quote]<br />

<br />
<span style="font-weight: normal;">A mob of about 3,000 people looted and
burned a Christian neighborhood in Lahore on March 9 after a man in the
neighborhood was accused of blasphemy. The riot forced 200 families to
flee. Mosque loudspeakers began to broadcast news of the blasphemy
charge at 4 p.m. on Friday,
March 8,
and a mob of extremists appeared in the neighborhood at 9 the next
morning. Terrified Christians fled their homes,
remembering a 2009 riot in Gojra,
Pakistan,
in which eight Christians were killed,
many more injured and at least 40 homes destroyed. As in Gojra,
police in Lahore apparently stood by while the mob destroyed at least
175 homes in the neighborhood over a five-hour period. The man accused
of blasphemy is in police custody.<br />

<br />
<span style="font-weight: normal;">Two Brazilian Christians remain in
prison in Senegal on charges of kidnapping and child trafficking. The
Christians operated a home for street children,
many of whom were members of Quranic schools that force their pupils to
sleep on the streets. The home provided food,
shelter and education to about 17 children. After one of the youths told
his father he had become a Christian at the home,
the boy's father made accusations against Pastor Jose Dilson Alves Da
Silva. Legal efforts and intervention by Brazilian diplomats have so far
had no effect. "This is a prayer subject for all of us," said VOM's
field worker in Senegal. "The only person who can solve this problem is
the Lord."<br />

<span style="font-weight: normal;">All but one of the 14 men arrested in a
murder plot against Pastor Emre in Izmit have been released on bail,
pending the investigation and trial. According to VOM's field worker for
the region,
"Christians have to work harder than most people to get justice in
Turkey,
a country where victims need lawyers to push the justice system to
pursue justice." Pastor Emre has already offered forgiveness to the
conspirators.<br />
