Christian Persecution is Still Happening!!!

The Bible instructs us to be a voice for the voiceless. Psalm 82:3 says, "Stand up for those who are weak and for those whose fathers have died.  As Christians, we are called to take a stand up and pray for our persecuted brothers and sisters in Christ.

In the News

More Christians died for their faith in the twentieth century than at any other time in history, says Christian Solidarity International. Global reports indicate that over 150,000 Christians were martyred last year, chiefly outside of the United States. However, statistics are changing: persecution of Christians is on the increase in the United States. What's happening to bring about this change?

Part of an article from the Christian Post : Robinson said that Iraq, where militant group Islamic State has been gaining ground, was one of the worst places in the world to be a Christian in 2014. "Faced with the stark choice of conversion or beheading, most left everything and fled," he said, adding: "Intolerant extremism poses the greatest threat to Christians in 2015."
What is Christian Persecution? 
Christians in areas such as Iran, Iraq, Pakistan and other countries are paying the price with their lives and endure severe religious restrictions  are paying  a heavy price for their faith.  On a daily basis they are beaten, tortured, imprisoned and even death are just a few examples of the persecution they experience every day.

Pastor Saeed Abedini, a 34-year-old Pastor, father, and husband from Idaho, is currently imprisoned in Rajaei Shahr prison (formerly imprisoned in Evin prison in Tehran, Iran). On 28 July 2012, during a visit to Tehran to visit family and to finalize the board members for an orphanage he was building in Iran, the Iranian Revolutionary Guard detained Saeed, asserting that he must face criminal charges for his Christian faith. After intense interrogations, Saeed was placed under house arrest and told to wait for a court summons. On 26 September 2012, instead of receiving a summons telling him where to appear, five members of the Revolutionary Guard raided Saeed’s parents’ home in Tehran, confiscated many of Saeed’s belongings, and took him to an unknown location. After four days the Revolutionary Guard informed the family that Saeed was in solitary confinement in the notorious Evin Prison.
