Our brothers and sisters in Pakistan truly need our prayers and support:
Pakistan Christians told 'convert or die'
August 13, 2007
Christians in Peshawar, Pakistan, received anonymous letters threatening suicide attacks if they do not convert to Islam, assemblyman Pervez Masih said Friday in Pakistan's Parliament. He said the hand-written letter entitled "knock of death" called for jihad against non-Muslims and America.
Masih, reading the contents of the letter, said, "All of you are being invited to quit Christianity and become Muslim to save a place in the heaven. Otherwise, by the next Friday (August 10) your colony will be destroyed and you will be responsible for the loss of life and property. Be ready as it is not only a mere threat. Our suicide bombers will kill you. Consider it a final call," AsiaNews reported Monday.

indexed here are my replies: Christian whilst the taliban takes Pakistan & gets that's nuclear weapons will you unexpectedly grow to be Islamic? NO. Will you deliver greater of your babies to combat & die or will you believe in God ? Non muslims will have not got any selection yet to combat. could atheists become in contact on your non secular wars ? they'll have not got any selection till they opt to desire 5 cases an afternoon dealing with mecca ! What has faith carried out for mankind different than reason dying & soreness ? pink bypass, salvation military, sisters of charity, universities, faculties, hospitals ( incl those interior the remotest areas the place you detect illnesses like leprosy)....

The killing of Christians in Indonesia and Pakistan by certain kinds of Muslims has been going on for some time but is not reported in our news. (see websites for Christian Aid, CBN, Voice of the Martyrs, Amnesty International, etc.)
Why kill God's people of the Book? The answer is within the Quran. Who will you choose to believe? (P.S. They want to kill atheists, homosexuals, all unbelievers, etc. too)

Revelation6:9
When he opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain because of the word of God and the testimony they had maintained. 10. They called out in a loud voice, "How long, Sovereign Lord, holy and true, until you judge the inhabitants of the earth and avenge our blood?" 11. Then each of them was given a white robe, and they were told to wait a little longer, until the number of their fellow servants and brothers who were to be killed as they had been was completed.
Make no mistake...this time is drawing near!

Yes ,we need to pray and publicize this as well as call Muslims to condemn this bigotry and hypocrisy since they demand the right to be Muslim,seek converts and freely practice their religion in non Muslim countries.

Of course we are unaware of this. Mainstream media doesn't report things like this. Why would they? Why would they want to tell the whole truth?

It really helps to include the link to anything you reference. I did several searches, but was unable to find the article.
