“Cultural Cleansing” Of Christians By ISIS Being Ignored

John 16:2 Indeed, the hour is coming when whoever kills you will think he is offering service to God.

A Princeton law professor is speaking out over the large number of Americans and residents of other western nations that are ignoring the systematic “cultural cleaning” of Christians from the Middle East.

Robert George says Christians in the west need to step up and spur their governments to action.

“It must be a kind of complacency that comes with power and affluence,” George said. “We are happy. We are content. We are not persecuted, or not very much. So, we do not see the persecution of our brothers and of our sisters on the other side of town.”

“Where is the voice being raised on behalf of Middle Eastern Christians by my fellow American Christians and Christians in Europe?” George continued. “Yes, some do raise their voices and they are to be congratulated. To often this persecution goes on and we hear nothing. No voices raised by Christians.”

George, the vice chair of the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom, spoke at a press conference announcing a gathering of Middle East Christians.

“The narrative has too often been internalized by Christians themselves so that they fear speaking out lest they be confronted with a claim that Christians have no right to complain about persecution because their history has been one of persecuting,” George said. “As the heads are being chopped off by ISIS and other criminals, as the tortures are occuring, people are being burried alive, women are being raped. As evil beyond imagineable, genicidal evil is being done, we in the West must not worry about being accused of special pleading.”

  1. Jason, Thank you for the post that you provide and all others. I follow the items that you, Jan and others that are posted please tell us as Christians what can we do? My family and I pray each and everyday for Christians throughout the world. I have fasted for them. What can we do!? I am sincerely asking. I know that all of this is signs of the end times and I know that it is coming to America. People get up in arms about the beheadings of Americans but nobody talks about the Christians from the middle east. My heart breaks each time I hear a story. I try to live my life for God. Tell me what more we can do. I feel very helpless; I am sure alot of other Christians feel the same as I do.

  2. It is the case of the proverbial frog in the pot. It is coming to a theater near you if we don’t wake up soon. Pastor Saeed is the poster child for the treatment they give Christians or anyone who speaks up.

  3. You are so right! We must speak up and Loudly so that everyone hears us because very soon the same actions being used there will be used here on American Christians! We American Christians are in the very forefront of persecution here in our own Country that Christians Founded and Built, we are being persecuted by our own Govt. and by such immoral Groups such as Homosexuals and Atheist. There may come a day when we must stand and fight right here in America and the one thing I can say I am thankful for is that those who are wanting to destroy Christianity here in America do not believe in owning Guns!
