The major holocaust of Christians will be coming soon, and it will be very systematic and well organized. When one looks at the Islamic Ottoman Empire, it murdered millions of Christians in a disturbingly calculative and incremental manner. The same calculative and systematic killing will be seen in the future, but in a much larger scale, under the reign of the Antichrist.
Just look at whats happening in Pakistan, where our organization, Rescue Christians, is saving persecuted Christians right now. The Anglican Bishop, Michael Nazir-Ali, who is Pakistani himself, very recently described the persecution of the Christians in Pakistan as systematic:
There is such a lot that the Christian community does in Pakistan, in spite of the terrible persecution and discrimination that it suffers. All of these are sitting ducks for any kind of terrorist to do whatever they like. All of these places are used by large numbers of people. …It is a daunting task. It is easier to say than to do.
…There are scores of churches there of every kind and a very large Christian population… The government of Pakistan really needs to deal decisively with terrorism, not with one hand tied behind its back, not with qualifications or distinguishing between one extremist group or another. This has to be done decisively, once and for all, not just for the sake of the Christians but for everyone in the country.
…Persecution of Christians is now systemic. There are large numbers involved. What is happening to them is horrific. If this had happened to any other group, it would have caused international intervention many times over.
Keith Davies, the executive director of Rescue Christians, says that 50-70 million Christians could be massacred in the next 10-15 years.
Watch this powerful interview (one of three with Lumen Christi) that explains the issues of Christian Persecution and what Rescue Christians is trying to do to Rescue their brethren.
In the interview below Keith explains that history is repeating itself and that we are commanded to help our brethren. 100 million Christians live as minority in muslim countries, the Islamists have sworn to destroy Christianity completely, just as Nazi Germany swore to destroy the Jews:
How can anyone doubt the horrifying future of Christians? Just look to what the Ottoman Empire did to the Armenian, Assyrian, and Syriac Christians in the 20th century and you will get a glimpse as to the bloodbath that lies ahead in the horizon.
Historian Serge Trifkovic described the massacre by Muslims of the Greek city of Smyrna:
sporadic killings of Christians, mostly Armenians, started as soon as the Turks overran it on September 9, 1922. Within days, they escalated to mass slaughter. It did not ‘get out of hand,’ however, in the sense of an uncontrolled chaos perpetrated by an un-commanded military rabble.
The Turkish military authorities deliberately escalated it. The Greek Orthodox Bishop Chrysostomos remained with his flock. ‘It is the tradition of the Greek Church and the duty of the priest to stay with his congregation,’ he replied to those begging him to flee. The Muslim mob fell upon him, uprooted his eyes and, as he was bleeding, dragged him by his beard through the streets of the Turkish quarter, beating and kicking him. Every now and then, when he had the strength to do so, he would raise his right hand and blessed his persecutors.
A Turk got so furious at this ges- ture that he cut off his hand with his sword. He fell to the ground, and was hacked to pieces by the angry mob. The carnage culminated in the burning of Smyrna, which started on September when the Turks put the Armenian quarter to torch and the conflagration engulfed the city. The remaining inhabitants were trapped at the seafront, from which there was no escaping the flames on one side, or Turkish bayonets on the other. This was the end of Christianity in Asia Minor, whose history goes back to events recorded in the New Testament itself.
Sadly, the Kurds too will eventually turn against the Christians, for that is what the Kurds did during the Arminian genocide. The Kurds helped the Turks butcher the Arminians, and there is a very disturbing account of how these two Muslim peoples sadistically butchered several Christians:
A man in Erzeroum, hearing a tumult and fearing for his children, who were playing in the street, went out to seek and save them. He was borne down upon by the mob. He pleaded for his life, protesting that he had always lived in peace with his Moslem neighbors, and sincerely loved them. The statement may have represented a fact, or it may have been but a plea for pity. The ringleader, however, told him that that was the proper spirit, and would be condignly rewarded. The man was then stripped, and a chunk of his flesh cut out of his body and jestingly offered for sale: ‘Good fresh meat, and dirt cheap,’ exclaimed some of the crowd. ‘Who’ll buy fine dog’s meat?’ echoed the amused bystanders.
The writhing wretch uttered piercing screams as some of the mob, who had just come from rifling the shops, opened a bottle and poured vinegar or some acid into the gaping wound. He called on God and man to end his agonies. But they had only begun. Soon afterwards two little boy came up, the elder crying, ‘Hairik, Hairik (Father, father), save me! See what they’ve done to me!’ and pointed to his head, from which the blood was streaming over his handsome face and down his neck. The younger brothera child of about threewas playing with a wooden toy.
The agonizing man was silent for a second and then, glancing at these his children, made a frantic but vain effort to snatch a dagger from a Turk by his side. This was the signal for the renewal of his torments. The bleeding boy was finally dashed with violence against the dying father, who began to lose strength and consciousness, and the two were then pounded to death where they lay. The younger child sat near, dabbling his wooden toy in the blood of his father and brother, and looking up, now through smiles at the prettily dressed Kurds and now through tears at the dust begrimed thing that had lately been his father. A slash of a sabre wound up his short experience of God’s world, and the crowd turned its attention to others. (Quoted by Sir Robert Anderson, in his book, The Silence of Heaven, ch. 1)
A missionary eyewitness recounts what horrors the Ottomans committed on the Armenians:
the slaughter of the Armenians was a joy to the Turks, a massacre was heralded by the blowing of trumpets and concluded by a procession. Accompa- nied by the prayers of the mullahs and muezzins, who from the minarets implored the blessings of Allah, the slaughter was accom- plished in admirable order according to a well arranged plan. The crowd, supplied with arms by the authorities, joined most amicably with the soldiers and the Kurdish Hamidieh on these festive occa- sions. The Turkish women stimulated their heroes by raising a gutteral shriek of their war cry, the Zilghit, and deafening the hopeless despair of their victims by singing their nuptial songs. A kind of wild cannibalhumour seized the crowd…the savage crew did not even spare the children.
Analogous to the French revolution, the crowd that watched the public executions jeered and abused those who were about to die. They rejoiced at the severed heads, adulated the leaders temporarily in power, and cursed them after they fell.
Armenian Women and children were raped, the bellies of preg- nant women were slashed, and men were decapitated and put on display for entertainment. Survivors were viciously dragged across Deir ez-Zor (the Syrian Desert) without food or water, at the mercy of murderous Turkish generals. By the end of the genocide, more than 1.5 million Armenians were massacred and lost.
An account of one survivor, Khanum Palootzian, recalls what she witnessed: “Pregnant women were eviscerated, their stomachs cut open with swords and their babies ripped out, thrown against the rocks. These I saw with my own eyes.”
Massacres like these will be conducted by the revived Ottoman Empire, at a much larger level. The world will laugh at such a prognostication, just as they laughed at those (like Pierre Van Paassen) who forewarned to the world on Holocaust of the Jews before a single Jew was even killed by the Nazis.
The Turks till today deny what happened to the Armenians. Why? Because they plan on doing it again.
The blood of the martyrs already soaks the earth, screaming for justice from their Father in Heaven. The souls of the martyrs cry out: “How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?” But these same martyrs are told: “they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.” (Revelation 6:10-11)
The blood of the martyrs will increase and arise, and it will flood the earth through the diplomacy of politicians. These empty souls who rule the world will enable and allow the Ottomans to revive and organize the greatest holocaust of Christians ever done.
This is why we started Rescue Christians, to help the persecuted who are being slaughtered, especially in Pakistan. We have already rescued 3000 Christian families. Please help us save more.
