South Africa’s chief rabbi slams world’s religious leaders for silence on Christian beheadings in DRC
Religious leaders, including far too many Christian leaders, ignore Christian persecution, yet many among these same people express shock and outrage over Palestinians dying in the Gaza war. They also dismiss the fact that Hamas uses Palestinians as human shields, and wrongly blame Israel.
How can the world pretend to care about human rights, while ignoring the barbaric atrocities being committed against Christians daily? Rabbi Warren Goldstein, South Africa’s chief rabbi, hasn’t forgotten:
In Nigeria, a genocide has been underway for years. Meanwhile, South Africa led the charge in the International Court of Justice’s “genocide” case against Israel, while it ignores a real genocide against Christians.
The brave, outspoken Rabbi Goldstein also addressed global opponents of Israel last year. See HERE.
South Africa is shamelessly antisemitic, blind to Christian persecution, and pro-Islam at any cost, as Islam rises in the country.
South Africa’s Chief Rabbi Warns: Islamists Beheading Christians in DRC
by Joel B Pollak, Breitbart, March 2, 2025:
South Africa’s Chief Rabbi Warren Goldstein warned Sunday that Islamist militias are beheading Christians in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) — and slammed the world’s religious leaders for their silence on the issue.
Goldstein was referring to the Kasanga massacre, a mass murder of Christians that occurred on February 12.
As Christian Daily reported:
Seventy Christians were discovered beheaded inside a Protestant church in the Democratic Republic of Congo’s North Kivu Province, according to reports, which say the victims had been kidnapped by suspected Allied Democratic Forces terrorists.
The terrorists arrived in Mayba, a village in the territory of Lubero, at around 4 a.m. last Thursday and ordered residents to quietly get out, said Open Doors, adding that at least 20 Christian men and women had to leave their homes, leading to their capture.
Later, concerned residents gathered to plan a rescue, but the armed group is said to have surrounded the village and managed to seize 50 more believers. The abducted residents were then taken to a Protestant church in Kasanga, where they were found beheaded, said the ministry.
Goldstein commented that global religious leaders, including the South African Council of Churches — which has been very vocal on the Israel-Palestinian conflict — had largely been silent on the issue.
Islam hates Christianity, not because it's a lie, but because it's the Truth and it makes Islam a Lie.
Uganda: Muslims screaming ‘Allahu akbar’ beat and stab evangelist who converted Muslim to Christianity
The death penalty for apostasy is part of Islamic law. It’s based on the Qur’an: “They wish you would disbelieve as they disbelieved so you would be alike. So do not take from among them allies until they emigrate for the cause of Allah. But if they turn away, then seize them and kill them wherever you find them and take not from among them any ally or helper.” (Qur’an 4:89)
A hadith depicts Muhammad saying: “Whoever changed his Islamic religion, then kill him” (Bukhari 9.84.57). The death penalty for apostasy is part of Islamic law according to all the schools of Islamic jurisprudence.
This is still the position of all the schools of Islamic jurisprudence, both Sunni and Shi’ite. Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi, the most renowned and prominent Muslim cleric in the world, has stated: “The Muslim jurists are unanimous that apostates must be punished, yet they differ as to determining the kind of punishment to be inflicted upon them. The majority of them, including the four main schools of jurisprudence (Hanafi, Maliki, Shafi’i, and Hanbali) as well as the other four schools of jurisprudence (the four Shiite schools of Az-Zaidiyyah, Al-Ithna-‘ashriyyah, Al-Ja’fariyyah, and Az-Zaheriyyah) agree that apostates must be executed.”
Qaradawi also once famously said: “If they had gotten rid of the apostasy punishment, Islam wouldn’t exist today.”
Christian Stabbed in Attack on Evangelists in Uganda
Morning Star News, February 25, 2025:
NAIROBI, Kenya (Morning Star News) – Hardline Muslims in eastern Uganda on Feb. 15 beat and stabbed an evangelist after he and his team led a Muslim widow to Christ during open-air gospel preaching, sources said.
Robert Kasozi, a 39-year-old evangelist also known as Mulokole, was stabbed in the stomach, and three co-workers also were beaten in the attack in Kiwanga village, Goma Sub-County, Mukono District, a local source said.
The evangelists led a 75-year-old widow identified only as Hasifa to faith in Christ in a public prayer, infuriating a relative and a shopkeeper, said an area contact whose name is withheld for security reasons.
“A relative of Hasifa named Jawadi and a shopkeeper saw all that took place – he came out of the shop and started shouting the Islamic slogan, ‘Inna lillahi wa Inna ilayhi raji’un [Indeed to Allah we belong and to him we shall return]’ and [jihadist slogan] ‘Allah akbar [God is greater],’” the source told Morning Star News.
Many Muslims gathered and started insulting the evangelists, she said.
“A Muslim came and attacked Kasozi, piercing him in the stomach with a knife,” the source said. “While other attackers were shouting, ‘You infidels, why do you come to spread a wrong message into our city – don’t you know that this city belongs to Muslims? Stop what you’re doing now, because for us we know that Jesus is not the Son of God but a messenger from God just like our prophet Muhammad.’
“Other Muslims started beating the three evangelists as Kasozi was lying in a pool of blood. They also grabbed their Bibles and tore them into pieces.”…
A day they will remember when they stand before Jesus Christ on that great and terrible day.
