Dr. Rebecca Laonita, Mrs Ratna Mala Bangun and Mrs Ety Pangesti of Gereja Kristen Kemah Daud (GKKD), of the Christian Church of David’s Camp; were involved in a children’s holiday project called ‘Happy Week’ in Haurgelis, West Java.

Christianity Today reports,

Murderous threats were made by Islamic extremists inside and outside the courtroom. One was reported to have brought a coffin to bury the defendant if they were found innocent.

“The ladies, witnesses and judges were constantly under the threats of violence from hundreds of Islamic radicals who threatened to kill the three ladies, witnesses, pastors, missionaries and even the judges if the women were acquitted,” Jeff Hammond of Bless Indonesia Today told Compass.

Contrast this,

Abu Bakar Ba’asyir was found guilty in March of conspiracy over the 2002 Bali bombing, in which 202 people died. But he was cleared of more serious anti-terrorism charges relating to an attack on Jakarta’s Marriott hotel. Therefore he was sentenced to 30-months in jail.

Teachers are sentenced to 3-years in jail because of teaching Muslim students (who by the way got their permission from their parents) and the teachers received death threats. The other case, a cleric who was found guilty in the Bali bombing was sentenced to jail for 30-months, while he received celebrity status for his bravery in challenging the west.

Checkout the court sentencing of the three teachers. While the ladies are in the court, the jihadist are outside crying for the teachers death.

If you are a Muslim reading this, please consider the love and mercy of Jesus Christ which is revealed in the true word of God – the Holy Bible. There will be a judgment awaiting all mankind. The only way of escape from that terrifying Day is to be clothed with the righteousness of Jesus Christ from His atoning sacrifice.

And if you are a Christian reading this, if you are not proclaiming Christ you are sinning. Repent and get back to the work of proclamation.

  1. Everywhere but America. What happenned to tolerance? I don’t know whether to be mad or sad or both. My hope is knowing that our God is also a God of wrath and vengeance. I feel a bit like Jonah right now…I really want to see those guys get “dealt with.”
