Dire situation for Christians in Afghanistan

The group that helps persecuted Christians worldwide said that for them there no freedoms to lose as Afghanistan had been number two on the Open Doors World Watch List for several years.

"This is because it is impossible to live openly as a Christian in in the country. Leaving Islam is considered shameful, and Christian converts face dire consequences if their new faith is discovered. Either they have to flee the country or they will be killed," says Open Doors.

The above excerpt is from an article published in ECUMENICAL NEWS ecunews.com. The article by Peter Kenny is titled: After Taliban takeover, Afghanistan most dangerous country to be a Christian: Report. Obviously, the situation for Christians is dire. Read the full article at the link below.

Golden Rule

“In everything do to others as you would have them do to you; for this is the law and the prophets."


- Matthew 7:12, NRSV 

Man with a mission?

 

Oh, the missionary man, he's got God on his side

He's got the saints and apostles backing up from behind

Black eyed looks from those Bible books

He's a man with a mission, got a serious mind

There was a woman in the jungle and a monkey on a tree

The missionary man, he was following me

He said, stop what you're doing, get down upon your knees

I've a message for you that you better believe

 

The foregoing excerpt is taken from the lyrics for the song Missionary Man by the Eurythmics (Annie Lennox and Dave Stewart). I decided to share the official video of the song on here. We can usually use some entertainment, especially when it seems to have a message. Of course, you all can decide on what the message is for yourselves. Either way, I hope you enjoy. Blessings!
