Remembering the 21 Coptic Martyrs
Remembering the 21 Coptic Martyrs of ISIS
Today, we remember the twenty-one Coptic Christians that were martyred for their faith by ISIS one year ago. Take courage! The Lord has told us what is to come and we rejoice at the confession of these Coptic Christians who did not deny Christ, though swords were at their throats.

If a person will not recant their faith and is willing to die by the sword for the sake of the gospel….. then they know Jesus better than I do.
Can’t believe its already been a year. Thanks for posting this Michael.
I thought our Lutheran brother spoke well…
Rev 6:9-11 … thank you for giving these Christians their tribute due today … we know where they are now and we know what they are doing also
i apologize for the scripture redundancy – i “spoke” before i listened
Amen.
Thank you for posting this excellent and sobering message.
I really appreciate this reminder, thank you. Many of the Christians being hurt and killed are Coptic and other communions of the EO church. We need to not forget.
Words escape me.
