Just got this email and am asking for all people concerned about persecuted Christians in the Middle East to please sign this petition and let everyone you know about this. Thanks and God Bless.
CALL FOR MERCY PETITION TO BE DELIVERED SOON. PLEASE SIGN TODAY.
Dear friends:
We recently received an update from our field staff in Pakistan
regarding Asia Bibi, who has been sentenced to death for
alleged blasphemy against Muhammad. Although we had heard
reports that Asia had been "tortured" by a prison official, her
husband clarified that she has not been tortured but has been
harassed by a prison guard (the guard has since been disciplined).
Because of threats against her, Asia is held in a secure cell,
separated from the general prison population.
Asia's husband also shared some encouraging news. One of
Asia's guards is a Christian and has consistently been kind to
her. Asia has her Bible, and she receives encouragement and
blessings from God's Word each day. In spite of her challenging
situation, she testified that God has been faithful in
encouraging and sustaining her. "God is with me," she told
her husband. "I feel strong and protected."
THANK YOU for your prayers for Asia Bibi. Clearly, God
is answering our prayers. Please continue to pray.
Asia has been in prison for more than two years, separated
from her husband and daughters by an unjust ruling based
on an unjust law. Her appeal has been filed with the High
Court, but there is no clear indication of when the court will
rule on the case.
NOW IS THE TIME TO SPEAK OUT FOR ASIA BIBI.
Since VOM launched the Call For Mercy petition drive in August,
more than 300,000 signatures have been collected (including
digital and paper signatures). In November, VOM staff will make
the first delivery of those signatures to the Pakistani Embassy in Washington D.C. If you haven't yet added your voice to this
chorus for justice, NOW IS THE TIME.
GO NOW TO WWW.CALLFORMERCY.COM and sign the
petition to free Asia Bibi. Our goal is 1 MILLION SIGNATURES
on her behalf.
If you've already signed the petition, PLEASE SHARE THE
WEB ADDRESS with your friends. Share it on Facebook and
Twitter. Share the petition drive with your Sunday school
class or Bible study group. Encourage everyone you know to
speak out for Asia Bibi by joining this CALL FOR MERCY.
For those in bonds,
Tom White Executive Director
We need to get tough with these guys and threaten to overrun them with their own overseas population unless they get their act together.
Foolish suggestion.
Do you really think that we’ll send all Pockies home? Hell no, we love them too much.
Pray for the persecuted church.
sounds good to me. Or we could make a pact with India and take them by force.
yes indeed
Even the demons recognized Jesus..
know this, Muslims, someday you, too, will bow to Him.
But...it’ll be too late.
amen to that
