Reported by Open Doors...
"An estimated 200 million Christians worldwide suffer interrogation, arrest and even death for their faith in Christ, with another 200 to 400 million facing discrimination & alienation..."
This "should" be a mind boggling but also commonly known fact to ALL Christians, but the sad thing is that the majority of Christians refuse to pay attention, learn the truth or acknowledge their persecuted brethren... I think only 3% [of all Christians] actually support and keep abreast of what is happening to fellow believers who are enduring genuine persecution?
More effort and pain is required to support our persecuted brethren in many areas where other groups are not willing to tread... yet both the saved and unsaved in these area villages and towns reap the benefits from these missions & agencies.
It's ironic because many Christians avoid opening their eyes and acknowledging the extreme suffering of their brethren, because it is so painful.. yet these same people will constantly refer to "the cross and Christ's sacrifice"... It would seem that Jesus' death on the cross is merely some form of "abstract concept" to them, not something that needs to be related to the here and now.
