The news is chockful of bad news about the fate of Christians in Mosul. If you’re not careful, your eyes glaze over and you shake your head and move on to the next story–because after all, it’s not happening here.
The burning of an 1800-year-old church is the latest in a series of burnings and desecrations by ISIS.
A Chaldean, Syriac and Assyrian website released this photo of a church being destroyed.

Coming to our shores soon? Never say never.
Big difference, Americans are ARMED to the teeth.
Well for now we are. Hope you’re right.
I am right. Right now folks are keeping the powder dry.
America refused to help the Jews in the pre-WW II era. What could make Fedzilla care about Christians?
Christians could afford to field quite a formidable strike force if they really wanted to so do.
Listens for sound of turbines spooling up, reheat roar, -——
Sigh - just crickets.
Sad that the huge majority of Americans don’t care or even have a clue of what’s happening to Christians across the globe.
In some future time, possibly, but that'll depend on how hard the hispanics who generationally built their majority are willing to fight the islamization of the former American landmass.
Ugh! If I never had to see that face again!
Prayer for Peace in Syria
God of Compassion,
Hear the cries of the people of Syria,
Bring healing to those suffering from the violence,
Bring comfort to those mourning the dead,
Strengthen Syria’s neighbors in their care and welcome for refugees,
Convert the hearts of those who have taken up arms,
And protect those committed to peace.
God of Hope,
Inspire leaders to choose peace over violence and to seek reconciliation with enemies,
Inspire the Church around the world with compassion for the people of Syria,
And give us hope for a future of peace built on justice for all.
We ask this through Jesus Christ, Prince of Peace and Light of the World,
Amen.
The Lord is slow to anger, patient, and forgiving, but most of all just. I would not recommend to try His patients, tempt His wrath, bring Him to anger, and without showing remorse or sorrow or mercy for your actions to bring His justice upon you. To openly attack His people who cry for justice, to directly attack His alter and mock Him openly is about the worst thing you can do. There is a God and it does not end well for the sinful and unrepentant and evil people who kill Christians and Jews and burn Churches.
Thank-you for that brief reflection.
very sad indeed,
we should all be praying for those believers in harms way, we battle not against flesh and blood,
and it is coming here,
i don’t know when, or how soon, but it is coming,
