Gospel of Gunfire

From Bosnia, where Muslims attacked Orthodox Serbs, to Kosovo where it is no longer safe to be a Christian, to Turkey where the staff of a Christian publishing house was slaughtered, to Iran where a pastor is under a death sentence for being apostate, to Nigeria where the blood of believers now flows in the street, to Egypt where an ancient Christian community is now threatened, martyrdom is taking place with an alarming frequency not seen since the gory days of Rome. In every one of these instances, Islamists simply refuse to let neighbors live in peace. The blood of martyrs may well be the seed of the church, but when murder and dhimmitude evoke silence from those with the power to stop them, the Lord must surely weep.
