Before Beheading, Children Tell ISIS: 'No, We Love Jesus'
Charisma News ^ | 12/02/2014 | MARK ANDREWS

Some of the bravest martyrs this generation may ever know are teenagers—and perhaps even younger. When Islamic State militants threatened four children in Iraq—all under the age of 15—with death if they did not promise to follow Islam's "prophet" Muhammad, they defiantly stated, "No. We love Yasua (Jesus). We have always followed Yasua."

Andrew White, an Anglican priest known as the "Vicar of Baghdad," has seen violence and persecution against Christians unprecedented in recent decades. In a CBN News video embedded on this site, he recounts the story of the Iraqi Christian children who were told by ISIS militants to convert to Islam or be beheaded.

Those kids are braver than most western Christians will ever be.

Over here you just get petty insults and that is enough for many to run away.

Matthew 5:10-12
10 Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
11 “Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. 12 Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

Revelation 20:4
I saw thrones on which were seated those who had been given authority to judge. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of their testimony about Jesus and because of the word of God. They had not worshiped the beast or its image and had not received its mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life and reigned with Christ a thousand years.

Agreed. Most western Christians won’t even stand up to Rick Warren, Joel Osteen, and the Pope...let alone Islam...;-(

Actions have consequences.

ISIS killed them before they got to 15 years old.

We kill them before they are born.

Who do you think God will punish first?

This will probably get pulled by the Mod Squad. It’s NOT FOR THE SQUEAMISH!
As we ALL know, islam is the “religion of peace”. Or is that “pieces” as in body parts??

Religion of “Peices”. Islam’s day is coming. When Jesus comes back, his primary wrath is against the Islamic nations around Israel.

Attention, Vatican:

These kids need to be moved to the top of your list for Sainthood. Ahead of the dead Popes and the politically-correct flavor of the week.

When I was a young kid and studying Bible prophecy, I remember talking with some of my friends about the book of Revelation, (they were more interested in football, nothing wrong with that at age 13) but somehow the topic of ‘beheadings’ came up, and they we’re ridiculing this as being proof it was outdated or just plain silly,

I told them that they still practiced this in Saudi Arabia and even cut off the hands of thieves etc., it didn’t do much to convince them that a day would come in the future as described, I just said I don’t know how it will happen, but its clear that someday it will,

When I read about this, I cried for long time. The world is insane with hate. Humanism’s culture of death is global. The West could stop Isis if they wanted to...if they gave a dang about the genocide being committed against Christians.
