“ When President Donald Trump told the Christian Broadcasting Network in January he would give Middle East Christians priority refugee status, he was sharply criticized for religious favoritism and prejudice. Even a few high-profile American Christian leaders questioned his judgment.

Trump’s executive order on refugees did not mention Christians, but referenced religious “minorities.” That means mostly Christians, Shi’a Muslims and Yazidis.

A recent report by Open Door USA, a nonprofit research firm, identifies 2016 as the “worst year” for worldwide Christian persecution since the organization began monitoring human atrocities 25 years ago.

“Christians throughout the world continue to risk imprisonment, loss of home and assets, torture, beheadings, rape and even death as a result of their faith,” the report stated."

When Muslims brand Christians as being “polytheists” they are referring to Christians’ belief in the Holy Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

A few years ago we went to Kenya on “safari”.Our guide was James,who told us he was Christian.A very smart and friendly guy we had long talks with him during the long drives to and from Nairobi.He told us in great detail how difficult it was to be Christian in Kenya particularly in the part of the country close to the Somali border,Somalia being 99% moslem.
