Persecution of Christians

There have been a lot of posts on here ridiculing Christians and denying the existence of God. This article verifies the Bible's truths in such detail that even the most stubborn atheist should be able to see, with clarity, that God is not a myth. Everything happening here and elsewhere was all predicted many, many years ago. To those who will not believe in God, at least read the Bible's prophecies and see how they are playing out today. If, after seeing something written so many years ago doesn't convince you, nothing I can say will ever convince you of the truth but I hope God will have mercy on your soul.



Christian Teenagers Crucified, Unborn Babies Hung From Trees in Syria; Jihadists Take Action for Refusing Islam (Video) : BC News : breathecast
A Croatian Catholic website reported the brutal deaths of two Christian teenagers who were crucified for refusing to convert to Islam along with countless other deaths by many Jihadists/extremist Muslim groups in Syria.

Sister Raghida, former head of a Christian school in Damascus explained the horrific event. "Islam or death" was the choice given to many Christians in Syria on Tuesday during the height of the conflict in Syria. She said many Syrian Christians have been affected by the atrocities taking place in the Christian population of the Middle Eastern country, an area once known for the harmonious coexistence of Muslims and Christians.

According to Sister Raghida, the Muslims came to the two youths and said, "So you want to die as a teacher in whom you trust? Please choose: either to renounce (faith) or you will be crucified!"

The boys both refused to renounce faith in Jesus Christ and were martyred because of it. One of them was crucified in front of his father, who was then killed. The nun went on to tell the radio station that the Jihadists entered the city of Maaloula and started killing men, women, and children. According to her report, they killed and played football with the heads of those murdered. Sister Raghida also said the killers took pregnant women and pulled out the babies from their wombs and hung them from a tree by their umbilical cords.
The sister explained that the nearly two-thirds of Christians remaining in Syria are those who generally do not have the money to leave or were denied visas, as is the case with her family.
Nevertheless, the sister, as well as the remaining Syrian Christians, are staying strong throughout all of the hopelessness and despair.
She said after the massacre, "We celebrated Mass for the dead, and our prayer was even stronger... The Lord will not abandon us ... Our country will recover and our commitment to Christ will be even stronger!"
Shoebat.com has partnered up with Sister Hatune Dogan, an Eastern Orthodox nun who has rescued thousands to help save Christians in Syria.

Global persecution of Christians is one more major Sign of the End of the Age & this Last Generation. Proof positive that our Blessed Hope is closer than we think.


God Who Knows The Future Controls The Future. :victory:
 
I would call this arab/muslim apartheid. In addition to persecution. State department opinions may vary however, only Christians or Jews can be persecutors.

A new born saint had a dream about this, that the christian are going to be persecuted, but she also had another dream about going to Heaven.

2 Timothy 3:1-5, 10-14

"But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God…. And from such people turn away!

"…all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution. But evil men and impostors will grow worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived.

I think you highlighted the wrong word

all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will (IOW that's a promise) suffer persecution. But evil men and impostors will grow worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived
 
It's hard to tell whether this is accurate or not, or a mixture of fact and fiction. Unfortunately, Christians have a long history of fabricating tales of persecution and then endlessly repeating them as established fact until they are just assumed to be true. (Great book, by a professor of theology at Notre Dame: Link Removed ). Until a reputable and religiously-neutral organization like Amnesty International or the ICRC validates the very high number of identically-worded, unverified, and perhaps too "pat" reports in Christian media only, I'll reserve judgment.
