125 Christians In The African Nation Of Eritrea Were Arrested During Worship Rituals

imagesBy Victor Trammell

On Wednesday of last week, 125 Christian people were beaten and thrown into Eritrean jails in an incarceration campaign that critics call an example of religious oppression.

An investigator for the Open Doors organization told Worthy News the following in a statement:

Police arrested these church members from homes and workplaces during broad daylight and then marched them through town to the police station while beating them.” (Worthy News)

Worthy News also reported that 45 men and women among the 125 Christians arrested were forcibly grabbed  for worshiping outside highly regulated government-approved churches in Eritrea. The Eritrean government has denied any wrongdoing in the mass incarceration campaign.

Eritea, an East African nation located near Ethiopia is sometimes referred to as the “North Korea of Africa.” The president of the country is named Isaias Afwerki. Afwerki and his Popular Front for Democracy and Justice Party have ruled Eritrea since the nation gained its independence in 1993.  The Afwerki regime practices a strict form of totalitarian government.

An anonymous source who spoke to International Christian Concern made the following statement about Christian religious oppression:

Being a Christian in Eritrea is like living in h**l. Christians are treated like enemy No. 1.” (BlackChristianNews.com)

According to the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF), the Afwerki regime is a fierce and brutal dictatorship. A USCIRF statement read:

Systematic, ongoing and egregious religious freedom violations continue in Eritrea. These violations include: torture, sometimes resulting in death, arbitrary detention and prolonged bans on religious activities.” (BlackChristianNews.com)

  1. Why in the world are black american christians continuing to try and embrace people just because they brown and black.

    They dont like our culture
    They dont like our religion
    And they are mostly American haters who should be forced to live among themselves and not allowed to hide from immigration in the black community.

  2. Jayson if you are a True Christian you should know that there are no color lines, you should know that your brothers and sister are all over the world. It should bother you that your brothers and sisters are being brutalized. You are a part of Christendom, where poltics and hatred are priority. You have much to learn.

    • Listen here you piece of horse doodoo, color lines had NOTHING to do with what I said.

      I’m NOT a fool like you who would ignore the culture of these people, which teaches them to hate ALL CHRISTIANS (black and white), and bring a darn snake into my home and community, to take me down, before I refuse to learn.

      If you want to take a risk with your life like that go ahead, learn for yourself, and when the snake bites dont complain and when the christian haters kill and maim and give your children guns to kill you with, dont complain. Fool negroes are in the shape they are in today because they are fool enough to ignore the facts, ignore the evidence, and want to experience the fall for themselves.

      INTELLIGENT PEOPLE weigh the facts, instead of running around testing each and everyone and setting themself up for a life threatening/losing fall which they may never recover. That is what is WRONG with black america.

      It is not prejudice when your actions are based on FACTS.

  3. The persecution of Christians will start in America soon as well.

    • It already has in the black community. That is one of the main reasons our communities are being destroyed by anti-Christian, anti-American haters.

      But way too many many black american leaders who are paid, I believe, by foreign govts to help their peoples’ causes instead of their own black community’s interest are aiding the takeover.

      I heard Jesse jackson is marching in favor of the new immigration laws and asking you to support it. He has to know that large numbers of hispanics will need a new homeland, take the few jobs you do have, and will be inter-married with whites to increase WHITEs’ numbers. White america is NOT going to give them their homeland.

      THAT IS WHY YOU’RE BEING RAN OUT OF YOUR CITIES LIKE L.A. AND CHICAGO BY MEXICANS.

  4. Excited about Grad School!

    This is very deplorable to the last letter and consonant used in the term deplorable. I feel exceedingly sorry for those who are doing wrong. For the idiot who feels like they have done no wrong, they do not know what the term wrong means. Matt 5: 43-48 May the G-d I serve, have mercy on their ratchet souls.

  5. Peace… If I remember correctly the US has a military presence in this nation since the ” 1960′s” …My point :do we support ” north Korean ” type nations so long as they serve US needs?

    • No different than China, which has ongodly abortion laws , we continue to borrow money from them but claim we hate Obama and the Democrats for keeping abortion legal.

      Where are the Anti-China conservatives? The Tea Party?

      The Right Wing Christians? Because America was founded on Christian principles why don’t we do no business with any country who commit crimes against Christians?

      Those who practice unglodly acts towards any human group?

  6. Eretrea is a part of Ethiopia. The Europeans got their lackie to ceseed. Ethiopia has been a Christian nation 250 years brfore roman catholicism.

  7. As I said that Eretrea is a part of Ethiopia until the Europeans got their lackies to ceseed. Panama was a province in Columbia until United States Teddy Roosevelt got their lackies to ceseed and formed the nation of Panama.They did that to build the Panama Canal and the rasist canal zone.They even went to the so called West Indies and got Africans to work because yellow fever and malaria was killing off the whites. They paid the blacks in Silver while they paid the whites in Gold.The blacks could not live in the whites only Canal Zone.That is why the US was able to go into Panama and Kidnap its President Noriega, because they no longer needed him.This is history chech it out. You have your computers.

    • they WERE NOT FORCED.

      If you sell me your house for $10, you think I’m going to complain cause you are a fool.

      Always blaming the white man for what negroes did of their own free will.

    Break away from this demonic religion because it’s the very white/washed religion that enslaved my people, and still have you negroids enslaved today!

    Isn’t it a satanic ritual to ‘drink’ blood (wine) on the first sun-day?

    Isn’t it a satanic ritual to eat the ‘body’ (bread) on the first sun-day?

    You so-called xtians are nothing, but barbaric demonic devils (negroids & caucasoids), who use these items to represent this so-called christ!

    WAKE-UP!!!

  11. And in the U.S. most sleep late or cut the grass on the Lord’s day.

  12. Glen I thank you for educating us on this; yours is the only education I got from this.
    But I want to say here to Christians & Muslims alike. A trap has been set for you by outsiders (Non Christians and Muslims) and these People do not care by both of these religions.
    The trap is to make sure that Muslims and Christians are always at war with each other. Until Muslim and Christian Leader realize this, the fighting between Muslims and Christians will continue forever. All these wars America is fighting in the Middle East and other Muslim countries, America benefits nothing from all of these unless lose of human (Iraq war 40,000 Marines dead) Lives and Billions of dollars and the more these continues the more America keep going down in debts to pay for these wars and the more America keep creating more enemies for herself. The only group that’s benefits from these are the Zionist who do not care about Muslims and Christians. They are behind in all of these wars. 60 – 80 % or more of G W Bush’s cabinet were Zionist and so is the present Government of Obama.
    The burning question I have for us christens in America is this. How come when Christians in Palestine are been mistreated by the IDF (Israeli Defense force) and preventing Christians to go to their churches to worship every Sunday none of us say a single word against their mistreatment? How come when prayer houses (churches and Mosques) are been bulldoze by the Israeli Army and build illegal settlement no American Christian say a single word about it? They only people that stood in front of a well armed Isreali army are their Muslim brothers and sisters; they get no help from the Christen community form American. Why is that America? All I see from us (tax payer) is flooded Israel with Billions of dollars every year. Come on Christians talk to me. At least our Muslim brother accepts and recognized Jesus Christ’s teachings.
    You media is own and operated by Zionist including your BET, every TV Channel you flip with your TV remote control is own by them, so you are been deliberate miss-fed with false information with regards to vents around the world with a deliberate intent to be misinform.
