Ramadan: Persecution against our Brethren in Christ rises

This is the first time I have posted for my blog this year. I hope to continue to do so even after this period has ended.

Ramadan has begun today. For those who don't know, Ramadan is the ninth month in the lunar calendar during which Muslims fast throughout the day, eating and drinking nothing for a day (as well as abstaining from sexual intercourse if they are married).

Seems innocuous, right? Wrong. Aside from causing Muslims to steep into gluttony, it seems that when Muslims fast during this month focus more on their faith, it causes them to get more violent and target non-Muslims.

It is our brethren in Christ who feel the brunt of this violence.

The website known as The Religion of Peace calls this the Ramadan Bombathon.

Here is a video by a brother in Christ known as David Wood about the Ramadan Bombathon. I know it is a year or so old, but the message is still relevant even in 2018.


Stay tuned as I will be post article of our brethren in Christ being persecuted more than usual in Muslim lands during this period in which Muslims fast (I will also post articles our Brethren in Christ being persecuted by other sorts of people and in non-Muslim lands, but not as much). We need to pray that the Lord keeps our brethren in Christ safe and that Muslims will come to know Christ as Savior during this time.
