Martyrdom of Christians in America Has Begun

Life or death was determined by the answer to a single question: are you a Christian? That was the question asked by an anti-Christian gunman who stormed into an Oregon Community College classroom and preceded to shoot in the head those who affirmed they were Christians. Eyewitnesses substantiated the aforementioned.

According to reports I saw on Fox News, the shooter was lining people up and asking if they were Christians if they said yes, then they were shot in the head. If they said no or didn’t answer, they were shot in the leg. The point is, Christians were martyred for their faith, here in America. A fact mostly ignored by most of the Mainstream Media and the White House. President Obama’s behavior in the aftermath of the massacre was candidly not very presidential. Instead of calling for religious forbearance he delivered an unbalanced diatribe or more appropriately, a rant on gun control. And Mr. Obama was correct in his assumption that “Somebody somewhere will comment and say Obama politicized this issue, well, this is something we should politicize.” That someone is me. That somewhere is here, Southeastern North Carolina. Indeed you did, in fact politically publicize the carnage. Is not limiting Second Amendment rights part of Obama’s agenda?

Based on Obama’s remarks, one can surmise, it’s politically incorrect to address the persecution of Christians. Do you suppose as this writer does, that could explain why the White House has expressed less than inflamed ire over the near-genocide of Christians in the Middle East? And that could also explain why his administration has failed to secure the release of an American pastor being tortured in an Iranian jail. These days “lambs being led to the slaughter” is not exactly a politically correct narrative.

Imagine the courage it took for our fellow brothers and sisters in Christ to stand, all the while knowing that to do so would require the ultimate sacrifice. If there be any consolation for those families and friends of the martyred, they can take solace in knowing that after those slain took their last breath on earth, they took their first breath in Heaven.
