Martyrs: Pastor Selchun

Martyrs

Would you be able to stand if this happened to you? Are you even able to stand now and face a dirty look for sharing your faith?

This happened in Northern Nigeria, 1992:

Muslims in Kaduna, Nigeria, went on a rampage against Christians. Two pastors and their families were killed, along with 300 laymen. The fanatics severed Pastor Selchun’s right hand. When it fell to the ground, he raised the other one and sang:

“He is Lord, He is Lord!

He is risen from the dead, and He is Lord.

Every knee shall bow and every tongue confess

That Jesus Christ is Lord.”

His wife and sister stood by praying.

    What is your point on this post ? The horror witnessed here was done in the name of the same god/different prophet that you worship.

    Being a Muslim is everybit as stupid as being a christian, you are believeing in something you have been told to believe by your parents/school/culture.

    You do not belive In Thor, Allah or Odin.

    I do not believe in Thor, Allah, Odin, or the Christ God. You are all as bad as each other.

    It’s not a case of one of you being right and one of you being wrong, you belive in something so proposterous I have to question the chemical make up of your minds. There are saner people in asylums than in churches and mosques. It’s just that because you all share the same mass delusion you get away with it.

    Go on give up religion and help mankind for yourself, not fear of hell. Selling peopleinto theocratic slavery is not helping anyone.

    Peace
