Today more than 200 million Christians around the world suffer imprisonment, abuse and even death because of their faith. Yet most Americans never hear their stories. In Their Blood Cries Out, Paul Marshall reveals the reality of this present-day persecution, revealing what we can do to help these brothers and sisters in Christ.
TODAY. AT THE DAWN OF A NEW CENTURY. AS YOU READ...
In Sudan Christians are enslaved. In Iran they are assassinated. In Cuba
they are imprisoned. In China they are beaten to death.
In more than 60 countries worldwide, Christians are harassed, abused, arrested, tortured or executed specifically because of their faith.
200,000,000 Christians throughout the world live in daily fear of secret police, vigilantes, or state repression and discrimination.
These are not wild rumors. Nor are these simply Christians who, like so many others, suffer from war or tyranny. Hundreds of millions of Christians are suffering simply because of what they believe.
Their Blood Cries Out is a towering exposition of the history, causes and realities of today's anti-Christian pogroms... Written with a rare combination of balance and passion, it will provoke needed debate within the American Christian community, open skeptical minds to the truth of today's persecutions, and sear the consciences of us all. -from the Introduction by Michael Horowitz, Senior Fellow, Hudson Institute
This gripping and eloquent book should be required reading for any person who understands one of the most important and painful discoveries of the twentieth century: Human rights are either for all of us or they are for none of us.
