Saturday, October 7, 2006 Militants kill two children of a missionary couple in Pakistan

By Sheraz Khurram Khan Special Correspondent for ASSIST News Service in Pakistan http://www.assistnews.net/Stories/s06100040.htm

MUZAFFARABAD, PAKISTAN (ANS) -- In an horrific incident of Christian persecution on September 1, some unidentified militants slew two children of a missionary couple who is working with At Any Cost Jesus Mission, a underground ministry evangelizing to the Muslim nations.

A press release sent via e-mail to ANS by Any Cost Jesus Mission said that the assailants torched the dead bodies of teenaged children Shalom, 15 and Sharon 14 after murdering them brutally in the northern district of Pakistan. The teenaged victims according to the press release were secondary school students.

“Shalom and Sharon were kidnapped along with their missionary parents and two other younger sisters 10 days before the murder. The militants asked them to convert to Islam but they refused,” said the press release.

“So the militants killed Shalom first. Then they raped the girl and cut one of her breasts in front of her parents. She too died”, the press release quoted another underground missionary, Habel who it said broke the news to Any Cost Jesus Mission from a hidden place.

Police and the military forces are backing the militants. Habel and his family was also attacked and their house was burnt but the Lord enabled them to escape to a hidden place. They (militants) also demolished a church and some houses were set on fire too”, the evangelization ministry claimed in the press release.

According to the press release the militants set the motorbike on fire by spraying petrol on it and left the dead bodies in a ditch along with a motorbike.

“The police declared a false statement that it was an accident and the petrol tank of the bike was open when they fell into the ditch and burnt by a spark”, alleged Any Cost Jesus Mission.

The press release said that the believers are living in a grip of fear and trouble following the killing of Shalom and Sharon.

The ministry further claimed in the press release that the militants are not allowing believers to pray.

“They are not even allowed to speak a single word about Christ or Christianity or Christians”, the press release quoted Habel as saying.

The tribal people and their leaders are also being murdered by the terrorists in the Neelum Valley, it said.

Romans 3:31 we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law.

(Not eliminate, but because of our faith we *establish* the law. Our faith justifies the law. Without our faith, defining sin is fluid, not connected to anything.)

Matthew 5:17
Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.

One of the problems with Islam is the fluidity it allows in defining "innocent".

Missionaries have been taking their children with them for centuries.

Western diplomatic corps have been making use of this fact.

Use the same method the lawyers used to strip 1st Amendment protection from the KKK. Speech advocating murder is not protected by the 1st Amendment. It was used against a white supremacist in Portland, Oregon. A black man was murdered and the white supremacist was charged with advocating the murder in a civil lawsuit. He lost the lawsuit and his home after execution of the judgment

I think the same method would work here. Go after the mosques that support violence and bankrupt them with civil lawsuits and class actions. The lawyers are already going after banks that have been providing financial services to terror groups.

"What about the other Christians families living all over the world in other muslim countries? Should they just automatically leave the country they grew up in also because of the risk of beheading? Are they also negligent in their own murder because they don't flee?"

Muslims are not converting to Christianity and you know that. In islamic lands you die for doing that, by beheading, stoning or hanging. Islam is in fact the fastest growing 'religion' in the world. Over the centuries Christian missionaries have tried to convert these barbarian nations and there has been no success.

As for the poor Christians who have to suffer living in islamic countries, my heart goes out to them and my prayers go up to God for them every day. But you cannot draw a comparison between those unfortunate souls who are born into this situation with those American self-appointed 'missionaries' who would take their children to places like Pakistan, knowing the probability of them getting killed is unnacceptably high. When Christians are unwelcomed and unwanted Saint Paul says to wipe the dust from your shoes and leave that place.

"Muslims are not converting ... and there has been NO success"

***

I am not sure why you are insisting on this. It is simply, flatly NOT true! Period! They are converting and do convert everyday and they do live to tell it and lead their own people to the Lord. Just because YOU are not hearing about it, reading about it does not mean it is not happening. It is, I assure you!

***

You wrote: American self-appointed 'missionaries' who would take their children to places like Pakistan, knowing the probability of them getting killed is unacceptably high.

***

They are clearly called of God and they have obeyed and gone and their children are NOT all getting killed. Factually wrong, plain and simple!

Likelihood of your children getting killed on the highway in a car accident is probably higher, or getting killed by gang fire in one of the bad cities of America. And even if they are not killed the likelihood that they reject the Lord Jesus, reject him during their school years after going through the US public schools is fairly high, reject HIM after 20 years of TV and hollywood anti-Christian indoctrination and where does that leave them - walking dead, withOUT Christ.

The DUmmies will just say it is a fake story or urban legend since it is not carried by the MSM. Then again, they would say that even if it was carried by the MSM (which it will NEVER be).
The DUmmies will never believe Islam is a satanic cult even as they watch their own family members are being raped and murdered.
They are DUmb a$$es.

In a perfect world there would be no raping, murdering savages. In this world there are, and a disproportionate number of them live in Muslim countries.

If parents send their children on a sleepover with a known child predator, and the children are raped and murdered, it's 100% the fault of the child predator? The parents have no culpability at all?

We have child endangerment laws because it's wrong to knowingly put children in harm's way.

Many people are ready to give these parents a pass because of their profession. I make no such distinction. Butcher, baker, candlestick maker or missionary, it is a sacred obligation for parents to do all in their power to protect their children from danger.

I agree with you. I am shocked at these parents putting their kids in harms way.

You should read the book Jesus Freaks. It is a book of personal testimonials of worldwide martyrs for Jesus Christ past and present. A best seller. AND HOW IS GOD'S NAME can you compare the missionaries with suicide bombers is beyond me.

Your post was completely idiotic and IMO actually evil.

Christianity asks that it's followers lay down their lives for their enemies.

Islam demands that it's followers take the lives of others who are their enemies.

Just a tad bit of difference there.

"I would only point out that it is irresponsible to take the focus of blame away from the perpetrators of these atrocities."

Indeed. That was not my intention.
