Christian Persecution In India up 400 percent

Hi Abednego
You are so right in the things you said, believers around the world are persecuted and put to death for there belief in Christ. I hear President Obama made a deal with Iran and only asked to have the hikers released but they also have an American minister who obviously believes in Christ but no mention of him.
In America one need not worry what believers in other parts of the world have to, but I'm sure that will change in time also.
However its all of God but not by the hand of God. I'm not sure if its right to think along these lines but I have wondered if these believes the world over who are being put to death or persecuted know Gods truth or are they believing as most of Christendom believes?

Good question. In countries where you can be put to death I don't think it really matters. Professing the name of Jesus is enough. They could care less whether you believe in hell or not.
On the other hand, I'm from the good ole U S of A. They can't put me to death for the name of Jesus (at least not yet) but I'm still promised persecution if I follow Jesus. That's why I believe the majority of persecution will com from believers. Nonbelievers would probably gravitate to the no hell policy.
And I think Ray's emails attest to the fact of what believers will do when they hear the truth.

Hi Abednego
I don’t remember having a quarrel with a non believer before but I can relate to Ray with some of his detractors, I remember a couple who after telling them that Hell is a christen hoax and no such thing as free will walk away from me, oh well, I tried .
Your right, it’s the believers one must watch out for. Seems to me that folks with religion are the first to say they love God but their deeds say otherwise. I guess its all apart of the great plan of our Lord that things must be this way for now but I do see a day when all this madness shall conclude and all of Gods creatures shall walk in pure love.
Even the devil too .............I can hardly wait for that season to arrive. :) :) :)

As is often the case in India, atrocities against minority groups, women and children remain unresolved unless media attention forces a public outcry. We are petitioning the relevant authorities to initiate investigations against the possible accused. Your email can help get the killers 7 year-old Anmol to justice.

Dear Decision-maker,
Sub: The Murderers of Martyr for his Christian faith - Anugrag (Anmol) Gemethi - 7 Year Old, Must be brought to justice
Ref: GFA Believers Church, Gamidi village, Dungerpur District, Rajasthan
It is indeed shocking that even a 7 year-old child is not spared by fundamentalists as alleged by the father Harish Gemethi. But what is worse is the police are unable to identify the killers and bring them to justice.
We would like to join The CSF Campaign for Justice for Martyr Anmol and call upon you to get the severest punishment for the killers. Only this will be a deterrent against persecution of Indian Christians & consolation to the family and church that Anmol belonged to.
Joseph Dias, founder of The Catholic-Christian Secular Forum (CSF) will follow-up with your office in this regard and I urge you to intimate Indian Christians of the action taken.
Thanking you,
Yours Sincerely
( Your Name )
