As we’ve reported on many times before Christians are undergoing brutal persecution by Islamic terrorist groups around the world. Just last week four of our Christian brothers in Kenya lost their lives to these Islamo-Nazi savages:
Christian Post – Al-Shabaab fighters reportedly killed four Christian men in Kenya’s Lamu County last week, beheading three and burning alive another.
“Late in the night on August 17, al-Shabaab militants entered Maleli village of Witu and killed the four men; three were hacked to death with machetes and one was burned inside his home,” International Christian Concern reported on Monday.
“The four men who were killed are Stephen Hizano Ponda, Charo Karisa Ngoa, Naphtali Katana Kadenge, and Joseph Gasena Ngoa.”
A police source told Reuters that three of the men’s “heads were cut off from the rest of their bodies.”
The Somali-based terrorist group has been seeking out and slaughtering Christians in Kenya. The extremists murdered seven believers in a series of deadly raids in July.
The latest attack came as Uhuru Kenyatta, the president of Kenya, had urged families to remain at displacement camps as the army attempts to eradicate the terrorist threat in the area.
Unfortunately these four Christian brothers went back to their village due to ‘desperation’ in their displacement camps:
Christian pastors from the region revealed that the victims left the camps to check on their homes and crops despite the warnings.
“One of our catechists, Stephen Nyati, lost his son in the attack and we are saddened as a church community and we strongly condemn the act. His son had gone back to the fields to check the progress of the farm when the militants pulled him out of the house and slaughtered him,” Father Cyprian Taah of Witu Catholic Church said.
“We are asking the global community to remember us in prayer and if possible send us material help because the people in the camps need food, shelter, water, medicine, sanitary pads and soap,” he added.
Chief Macharia of Witu admitted that there is “desperation” in the camps, which is making people return to their villages despite government orders.
“The Boni Forest operation to kill al-Shabaab is ongoing and several of them have been killed. This operation will go on until all the militants disturbing the peace of Lamu residents are neutralized. We continue to urge the people to stay inside the camps until new orders to return to their homes [are] given by the higher authority,” Macharia said.
I honestly don’t know what it’s like to live in a displacement camp because a terrorist group is on a Christian killing spree, but I can imagine there is much desperation when it comes to food and water. I suspect that’s why they returned to their village.
Al-Shabaab has been slaughtering Christians in Kenya for years now.
The whole situation is unthinkable, but unfortunately it is reality for so many Christians there. Please pray for your brothers and sisters in Lamu, that God would protect them and keep them safe and that He would rain down fire from Heaven and torch these Muslim savages out of existence.
