Q: Give us some examples; can you say specifically what is happening against the Christians there? A: Well, according to this source, who himself was in the intelligence unit, and he saw and he witnessed some of the tortures being done. What they do they raid homes where teachings are taking place, they arrest them, they are taken and sometimes they beat their wives in front of their eyes to break them down, to force them to come before television and make false confessions. The source says that one of those arrested, a male, after three months in total darkness, and then he was all of a sudden brought to the courtyard, where he immediately lost his eye-sights. So, it is unimaginable what they do with the Christian converts. Khamenei, the Iranian supreme leader ordered the guards to burn ten thousand of confiscated Bibles, saying that it is not a holy book and therefore, it is legal to burn them in order to stop the conversion. - Regime’s authorities anxious Mohabat News believes, the above interview indicates the anxiety of the Iranian security organization and government officials about the increasing growth of Christianity among the people of Iran. The issue has become so serious that some prominent clerics complained about this increasing tendency toward Christianity and warned their fellow Mullahs about the significant trend of the youth toward Christianity in Qom which is recognized as the spiritual capital of the Islamic Republic. This anxiety, as well as the enormous growth of house churches, impacted Ayatollah Khamenei, the Supreme Leader, to the extent that in his nine day trip to Qom on October 19, 2010, he reluctantly acknowledged this growth and spoke about the regime’s decision to deal with false mysticisms and house churches. /Farsi Mohabat News 31 мая 2012 г. ...

Virtually every deportation caravan and village massacre was accompanied by serial mass rape of the women. Young girls were abducted as sex slaves and children as household servants . Even when they were not killed outright, the women were often stripped of their clothes. The homes of Christians were broken into, plundered, furniture smashed, windows, and doors removed, set on fire. Sometimes a survivor had little to return home to. The number of perpetrators of the local massacres was staggering. Apparently the local officials....or the local politicians...had no difficulty in motivating the populace for extermination. The officials established death squads from middle-aged Muslim men . National Assembly deputies...agitated among the Kurdish tribes and even managed to get notorious outlaws...to cooperate in return for loot, adventure, and a promise of amnesty. On a few occasions, Muslim women were present, for instance...at the public humiliation of Christian dignitaries, but mostly the perpetrators were males. There were literally thousands of perpetrators, most of them locals. How tragic that a century later, plus ça change, plus c " est la même chose. The question remains: how much longer will U.S. policymaking elites across the political spectrum persist in their denial about how such jihad carnage is a recurring, grass roots, traditionalist Islamic phenomenon? 3 сентября 2014 г.

After receiving his M.Div. at the St. Joh n of Damascus School of Theology (1974) in Lebanon, he obtained his M.Th. at the Aristotelian University (1976) in Salonica, Greece, and his Th.D. (1985) with excellence from the same institution. He was professor of patristics, history, and languages at the St. John’s School (1978–87) in Lebanon, while concurrently serving as dean (1980–87). Active in ecumenical affairs, he was a World Council of Churches Commissioner of Mission and Evangelism (1983–89), a member of the Ecumenical Committee for New Testament translation (1983–87), and an ecumenical dialogue representative of the Antiochian Orthodox Church (1980–87). After moving to the United States with his wife and family he taught patristics (1987–92) and participated in academic community life (1992–93) at the St. Athanasius School of the Antiochian Evangelical Orthodox Mission of the Antiochian Archdiocese of North America (q.v.) as the principal Orthodox theologian of this newly received group (with American evangelical roots in the Campus Crusade for Christ). Active nationally in the Antiochian Archdiocese, he has served as a chairman of the department of liturgics and translation (1988–94), visiting professor at the Antiochian House (1994) in Pennsylvania, a member of the planning committee for the 1994 Clergy Symposium, and adjunct professor at Fuller Seminary (1994).

Putin says that the Crimea where Prince Vladimir took Baptism has sacred meaning for Russia Moscow, December 5, 2014 The Russian president Vladimir Putin addressed the Federal Assembly with his annual message. The address was by tradition delivered at the Kremlin " s St. George Hall before an audience of over 1,000 people, reports the official website of the Russian Federation’s president. In his speech the Russian president particularly dwelt on the spiritual significance of the Crimea— “the ancient Chersonese, or Korsun, as it was called by Russian chroniclers”—for Russia.      " A historic reunification of the Crimea and Sevastopol with Russia has taken place. For our country, for our nation this event has a special significance,” Vladimir Putin said. “Our people live in the Crimea, and the territory itself is strategically important because here are the spiritual origins of the formation of the multifaceted but monolithic Russian nation and the centralized Russian state. “For, it was here, in the Crimea, in the ancient Chersonese, or Korsun, as it was called by Russian chroniclers, that Prince Vladimir received Holy Baptism and then christened the whole of Rus’. “Alongside with the ethnic closeness, common language and elements of the material culture, the common territory (though yet with no clear boundaries), the emerging joint economic activities and power of the prince, Christianity was a powerful spiritual uniting force that enabled participation in the formation of the united Russian nation and the common statehood of the different tribes and tribal unions of the whole, vast Eastern Slavic world. It was this spiritual force that inspired our ancestors to realize once and forever that they were one nation. And so it gives us every reason to state that for Russia the Crimea, ancient Korsun, the Chersonese, Sevastopol have an enormous civilizational and sacral meaning—in the same way as the Temple Mount in Jerusalem is meaningful for those who confess Islam or Judaism”. 9 декабря 2014 г.

" We regret to note that despite the rhetoric about freedom of religion and protection of the minorities by the government of Sudan, threats and discrimination against Christians in Khartoum and its environs are increasing, " said the Rev. Olav Fykse Tveit, WCC general secretary, and the Rev. Andre Karamaga, the AACC general secretary. The World Communion of Reformed Churches (WCRC) said it was about to issue a call to prayer on Sudan, when the organization received information detailing the burning and destruction, according to the Rev. Setri Nyomi, general secretary. Nyomi said on 24 April the Sudan Presbyterian Church " s moderator, the Rev. James Par Tap, wrote that before the attacks, Ansaar Alsoona, a fundamentalist Islamic group, had announced " al-jihad " against Christianity and its members attacked the school and church. With the attack, some Muslims apologized to Christians saying the actions did not represent the spirit of Islam. In solidarity, some Muslims joined Christians for prayers in the church compound and condemned the incident. At the same time, church organizations warn that similar groups to the one that burned the church are marauding in Khartoum and being encouraged by the inflammatory speeches by Sudan government leaders. The two nations are embroiled in a dispute over oil and borders that is threatening to develop into full scale war. South Sudan broke away from Sudan last July, after a two-decade-long civil war. " We call on all sides to exercise restraint and pursue peace at all costs. God is on the side of those who seek peace, " said Sudan Anglican Archbishop Deniel Deng Bul. As the hostilities increase, refugees have begun streaming into Kakuma, the refugee camp in Kenya where many lived during the civil war, according to the U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees.

Furthermore, there is a serious flaw in labeling the Christians of the Holy Land (as well as Lebanon and Syria) as “Arab Christians”. Any serious historian can quickly affirm that the Arabs who conquered these lands in the seventh century did not embrace Christianity! So, who are these Palestinian Arab-speaking Christians? Did they come to this land after the Arab conquest or were they perhaps already in the Holy Land when the Arabs came? Again, any serious student of history will be able to quickly tell you that these Arab-speaking Palestinian Christians not only are not Arabs, but they are the indigenous inhabitants of the Holy Land who have their roots in Judaism of the first century and the Early Church and were fully christianized in the centuries following the destruction of Jerusalem (and the final expulsion of the Jews from that area by the Romans in 135 AD), and most especially after the visit of St. Helena and the establishment of hundreds of churches and numerous monasteries in the fourth century. In other words, the people of Palestine were mostly Christian when the Arabs arrived in the seventh century. It will be easy to also show, that not only Aramaic (and Hebrew in the Liturgical setting among the Jews) but also Greek were spoken in most places of the Holy Land from the Hellenistic period until the Arab invasion. My point is that modern Jews may rightly claim the Holy Land as their ancestral home, but the indigenous Christians of the Holy Land have been there continually and uninterruptedly and have their roots deep in that land, at least as deep as anyone who claims to be a Jew today. We owe it to these million and a half forgotten Christians who held the Christian Faith through so much adversity to stand up for them, for they are the biggest victims of the unholy, bloody conflict between the Jews and Moslems in the Holy Land. 24 июля 2014 г.
