John 16:2 They will put you out of the synagogues. Indeed, the hour is coming when whoever kills you will think he is offering service to God.
Islamic terrorist group ISIS beheaded four Iraqi children who would not deny the name of Jesus.
Rev. Canon Andrew White, the “Vicar of Baghdad”, told the story of the four children during an interview for the Orthodox Christian Network. He said that the story is just one of the many examples of the Islamic group’s brutality.
“ISIS turned up and they said to the children, ‘you say the words that you will follow Muhammad.’ The Children, all under 15, four of them, they said, ‘no, we love Yasua [Jesus]. We have always loved Yasua. We have always followed Yasua. Yasua has always been with us.'” White said. “[The Militants] said, ‘say the words!’ [The Children] said, ‘no, we can’t do that.’ They chopped all their heads off.”
White said that many parents are being forced to say they’re converting to Islam to protect the lives of their children. ISIS routinely makes children kneel before their parents with weapons to their heads saying they will murder the children if the adults don’t convert to Islam.
White finally had to leave Iraq because of death threats from ISIS.
“They have threatened to kill me. They are after me. They wanted that Abuna [Father] from England,” White said. “So the Archbishop of Canterbury said ‘you’ve got to leave now.'”
