MANY
WILL HAVE SEEN NEWS REPORTS ABOUT THE TREATMENT OF CHRISTIANS IN IRAQ BY THE
MILITANT GROUP ISIS. WE STAND ALONGSIDE OUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS IN IRAQ,
PRAYING FOR GOD’S PROTECTION AND STRENGTH TO BE WITH THEM.
A
statement by CSW, our partners for persecuted Christians, says: “We are deeply
saddened by the appalling treatment of the Christians in Mosul, which clearly
constitutes religious cleansing. We are also concerned at news that Turkoman,
Yazidi and Shabak Iraqis are facing abductions, murder and the destruction of
property in areas controlled by IS. Despite its religious pretensions, the so
called Caliphate is no different from the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia. It has
enacted its own “Year Zero” by erasing every ancient monument or community that
predates its own. Whilst IS can destroy buildings, seize property and
intimidate, humiliate, extort or even kill unarmed civilians, it will
ultimately discover that it is impossible to extinguish faith from the human
heart through the use of force.”
Join
with us in praying and giving to those who are caught up in those horrendous
situation.
