Christians beaten, held hostage and Bibles set on fire in brutal attack by Hindu extremists
Christian Post ^ | 12/25/25 | Morning Star News

NEW DELHI — A Hindu extremist mob in northern India assaulted two Christian couples and an attorney for several hours, accusing them of forced conversion.

In Haryana state’s Titoli village, 5 miles from the city of Rohtak, the mob forced one of the Christians, a pastor, to set fire to a heap of Bibles while the Hindu extremists recorded videos that immediately went viral, resulting in 32 complaints to the police.

Pastor Jehovah Das, 65, and Vinod Masih, 42, along with their wives, had been invited to a Christian family’s home in the village to pray and bless the arrival of their second child on Nov. 7, sources said.

About 10 to 12 members of the Arya Samaj (Noble Society), a Hindu reform movement, learned of the Christians’ visit. They phoned several of their associates and gathered a mob of about 50 people that barged into the house.

“They began to beat us with slaps, punches, elbows, kicked us with their legs and held us hostage,” Masih told Morning Star News, adding that they beat the Christians from 10:30 a.m. until 3 p.m.

Maybe put some bible covers on some korans, then pile them up to await burning.

Or some Charmin wrappers.

I’d better stop here.

Maybe Christian evangelists should stay out of countries with established religions like Hindu or Sikh or Islam. We wouldn’t like it if bands of Muslim missionaries were going door to door in our communities trying to convert ppl to Islam in a majority Christian country. Let the Christians who already reside in foreign countries be the light for their fellow citizens. Otherwise don’t be surprised when pushback and violence occurs toward foreign missionaries.

Maybe Christians ask for missionaries to come. The Christians in those areas certainly ask for Bibles. Maybe other religions shouldn’t choose violence.

“ Hey, you think we ought to bomb them too.”

I’d be okay with nuking India and Pakistan at the same time.

Not bomb them.....BUT, we can certainly restrict/ban any immigration or H1B visas from India.

Matthew 28:19-20
New International Version
19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”

What would Mahatma Gandhi have said about this hateful, feral behavior? He thought of Hinduism as a tolerant faith.

Ha!
Perhaps the work ‘tolerant’ means different things to different people.

These were “red-dots” (Hindu), not muzzies.

There is no such thing as “conversion” in Hinduism, these were probably false flag muslims trying to divide and conquer

I would certainly agree with NOT bombing them unless we had to for some reason,but I can also agree with not making them welcome here unless they earn that privilege...and they have not as yet. Let every nation know that we are largely Christian & if they can’t live with that, they don’t belong here.

Prayers up for our brothers and sisters in Christ who face persecution for their faith. Prayers for the enemies that they see the error of their ways and repent in Christ.

What a novel concept.

It’s appalling that someone would think that this kind of violence is an acceptable response to someone sharing the gospel, even if it is going door to door.

It sends the clear message that the Christians deserved the beating for sharing the gospel.

Amen

John 15:18-23
New King James Version

The World’s Hatred

18 “If the World hates you, you know that it hated Me before it hated you.

19 If you were of the World, the World would love its own. Yet because you are not of the World, but I chose you out of the World, therefore the World hates you.

20 Remember the Word that I said to you, ‘A servant is not greater than his Master.’ If they persecuted Me, they will also persecute you. If they kept My Word, they will keep yours also.

21 But all these things they will do to you for My name’s sake, because they do not know Him who sent Me.

22 If I had not come and spoken to them, they would have no sin, but now they have no excuse for their sin.

23 He who hates Me hates My Father also.

Christians should be aware that
Satan's spirit of antichrist is
empowering some of these people
