Sunday School Attack in Pakistan Empty
PostSubject: Sunday School Attack in Pakistan   Sunday School Attack in Pakistan EmptyThu Jan 31, 2008 10:04 am

From the Voice of the Martyrs (www.persecution.com)

Sunday school teacher Farzana Bibi and her family members were recently attacked and threatened by militant Muslims in their rural village. The incident occurred as Sunday school students gathered in Farzana's home for singing and prayer. The fanatics had told Farzana, "We do not allow you to establish a church in this village. We will kick out your family and kill you."

She says the radicals interrupted the class and attacker her family members with hoes and picks. They beat her father, Sardar, who fell unconscious to the floor. Her mother, Parveen, was hit with tools, injuring her hand. They tore off her young brother's clothes and said, "We do not want Christians to pray in this village."

Farzana told us, "They ordered us out of the room we were in and said they would kill us because of the words we were preaching. They called us prostitutes for clapping our hands, dancing and singing religious songs."

Several months after the incident, Farzana helped arrange an Action Pack distribution in her village. She later reported to us that calm returned to the village after the distribution. "This is the fruit of our prayers," she said. "Our Sunday school is growing, and we have three new children now who are very excited about attending. Hallelujah! I have decided I will not be afraid, but will continue to hold the Sunday school."

These Christians aren't even allowed to start churches in their villages, yet we have everyone and their brother starting churches in America that are teaching a message that even the Muslim fanatics may not care too much about.

When you go to your local church this weekend, consider just how blessed you are to have a nice building, but most of all, the freedom to worship openly.

It's amazing to me that they are continuing to hold the Sunday School in the midst of persecution. It only reveals what joy that find in Christ and how they view this life as only temporary and meaningless compared to knowing Christ. I can't imagine how many here in the States would gladly stop the Sunday school after being persecuted one time.

Absolutely. People in America go to WalMart and don't hear "Merry Christmas" and call THAT persecution. America truly has no idea. With the way the world is going, however, America will soon learn.
