Note, the liberals in the USA are not much better, if a business doesn’t condone their liberal beliefs, they will do all they can to destroy it.
What do Jihadis and Liberals have in common, they are both evil.
They are opposed to God’s Love of all people.

How would we American Christians do under the same circumstances?

Here’s some guidance for all of us.
“Whoever acknowledges me before others, I will also acknowledge before my Father in heaven. But whoever disowns me before others, I will disown before my Father in heaven.” - Matthew 10:32-33

I would like to think I’d do the moral thing, and continue proclaiming my devotion to The Trinity, but to be truthful, I cannot guarantee that interests of self preservation wouldn’t overwhelm me at that very moment. I know this is not the right answer for any ‘real’ Christian, but I’m telling the truth as I now know it to be.
A major difference between most of us in the United States and those Blessed Martyrs of Christ in Egypt is that most Americans did not grow up in an environment where there was a general understanding that one day, you may lose your life by stating your allegiance to Jesus Christ, God or any form of deity other than Allah. I know I never worried about that as a child. Ever. Back then, it seemed only a remote possibility, something confined to history books, or missalettes in Catechism classes.
FReepers, it's time to get serious about retiring this FReep-a-thon.

My thought is that if we are willing to LIVE for Jesus Christ, we will be willing to DIE for Jesus Christ.
The word "martyr" in our Bible is from the same word we get the English word "witness" from.

Ramadan - Open season on Christians and other non-Muslims, coming to you soon in America.
Of course, it is sort of hard to distinguish the difference between Ramadan and the rest of the year, but maybe there are some extra points for any murders/rape/pillaging committed in this special period of the year.
Gives the time a kind of magic, like Christmas for radical Muslims.

May angels lead them into Paradise;
may the martyrs receive them at their coming
and lead them to the holy city
of Jerusalem.
May a choir of angels receive them,
and with Lazarus,
who once was poor,
may they have eternal rest.

It wouldn’t bother me a bit to lie to a heathen jihadi. The last thing in the world I owe him is the truth.

Those that died for saying I am Christian are in paradise today with Jesus and our Father. As sure as I am sitting here.

Jesus said if you don’t acknowledge me to men, I will not acknowledge you to my Father. Very simple.

How would we American Christians do under the same circumstances?
Richard Jackson, former pastor of the North Phoenix Baptist Church, once said of Christians, "Our people die well."
I'm pretty certain he wasn't talking only about members of NPBC.
The bestowal of dying grace on Christians by the Lord Jesus Christ is a re-curring theme in the New Testament.

Exactly! and that is the difference between Bible Christianity (based wholly on the final authority of Scripture) versus the nominal ‘christendom’ based on tradition and hierarchical authority.
One has the living, ever-present Holy Spirit whereby the saved are sealed against the redemption of the purchased possession - us; while the other has ‘best intentions.’
One is the narrow way and the other we know pave the street to hell.

>>>It wouldnt bother me a bit to lie to a heathen jihadi.<<<
There is no ‘taqiyya’ in Christianity.
Anyway, a Moslem will still cut your head off, but he’ll think you are no longer an infidel as he’ll expect you to immediately acknowledge Allaxnder.
Or, he’ll cut your head off thinking that you are a sniveling coward.

Trump should immediately offer the family safe haven in the U.S., and have them to the White House for a prayer with Rev. Franklin Graham...and then announce the deportation of 1,000 Somali Muslims afterwards.
