2015: The Year of Anti-Christian Jihad, ‘Christians Are Allah’s Enemies!’

December 31, 2015 — Breitbart.com reports: “The year 2015 will go down in memory as a period of unprecedented Christian persecution throughout the world, resulting in thousands of deaths along with continuous targeted acts of violence and terror.

In October, a mob of 700, instigated by the Islamic Defenders Front, marched on government offices in Aceh Singkil, Indonesia, and from there went on to torch the Indonesian Christian Church.

The mob later circulated a message that read: ‘We will not stop hunting Christians and burning churches. Christians are Allah’s enemies!’…”  (The Lord Jesus Christ, our God and Savior warned religious leaders in His day and for the future saying: “Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves” – Matthew 23:15.)

Mideast Christians face ‘apocalypse’ at hands of Islamic State, top UK cleric says

December 26, 2015 — The Times of Israel reports: “Anglican leader Justin Welby on Friday said Christians faced ‘elimination’ in the Middle East by Islamic State jihadists, labeling the group a modern-day version of the tyrannical biblical king Herod.

IS has attacked Christians, Yazidis, Shiites and other minorities across the region, killing thousands and uprooting ancient communities from ancestral lands.

‘They hate difference, whether it is Muslims who think differently, Yazidis or Christians, and because of them the Christians face elimination in the very region in which Christian faith began,’ the archbishop of Canterbury said in his Christmas Day sermon.

‘This apocalypse is defined by themselves and heralded only by the angel of death.’…”  (Christ speaks against such religious killers in Matthew 23:33: “Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?”)
