Christian persecution in the news
July 15th, 2009
The persecution of Christians and Jews will continue to increase (Revelation 12:13, 13:7; Matthew 24:9; Mark 13:9), culminating in the beheading of many who are converted during the Tribulation (Revelation 20:4). The current hatred of and attacks against the Jews are well documented, but it serves us well to look at some headlines and remember that people are harmed and even killed for the name of Christ every day.
- North Korea threatens foreign Christians
- Muslims attack fleeing Christians with acid
- Terrorists congregate at site of rampant Christian persecution
- Lawsuit filed challenging Ten Commandments in Kentucky
- Britain has become a cold place for Christians
- Fifa tells soccer superstars to ‘Keep God out of football’
- Six Baghdad churches bombed
- Group seeks to block ‘In God We Trust’ engraving at Capitol Visitor Center
- Malaysia arrests 9 Christians for trying to convert Muslims
- Christian women flogged for wearing pants
- Christian-funded centers vandalized
At least there is one interesting pro-God story out there this week–DNA proves God made all creatures.
