Kainut Describes the Price of Embracing Jesus in Pakistan

Kainut is the Girl on the Far Right
In Pakistan, Kainut was born to a Muslim father and a Christian mother.  Under Sharia, anyone born to a Muslim father is automatically considered a Muslim.  Kaiut explained that her mother never chose this life.  She was kidnapped and forced to marry her father against her will.  This is a fate that befalls many Christian & Hindu women in Pakistan.  Her mother was fortunate that her husband wasn't physically abusive.  She avoided abuse by outwardly accepting Islam, but secretly remaining Christian.  Her mother continued to attend a local Catholic Church in secret and over time Kainut began to attend with her.  
At the age of 14, Kainut lost her father to sickness, but her mother's abusive family forced her to marry his cousin against her will.  Her new step-father tried to ban Christianity in his home completely, but Kainut ultimately decided to accept Jesus.  However, her mother was fearful as this could mean her daughter's death at the hands of her abusive relatives.  The priest was also reluctant, fearing for her life and the lives of his congregation members.  However, when Kainut told him "Father, I am ready to die for Christ," the priest relented and baptized her.  

 Initially, things were OK.  Her step-father granted a divorce to Kainut's mother and they lived in relative peace, but sometime later her ex-step father and some of his relatives tried to kidnap her and force her to marry a 54-year-old Muslim man (Kainut was 18 at the time).  Fortunately the police chose to take action and stopped him.  However, the threats continued and in 2017 one of her Muslim relatives shot her brother, who also accepted Christianity.  Kainut, her mother, and siblings live in constant fear for their lives, but they're determined to not only keep their faith, but to serve humanity as well.  Today Kainut is studying to become a doctor and is determined to live her life despite the constant threats on her life.

Hamas Invasion of Israel

The brutal invasion of Israel by Hamas caught the entire world by surprise.  Over the last few years Israel has become accustomed to turning back rocket attacks and occasional cross-border raids by Hamas terrorists, but nobody anticipated this brutal full-out invasion.  Already being dubbed as "Israel's 9/11," militants stormed across the Gaza border and attacked towns across southern Israel.  Already over 900 Israelis are confirmed dead, thousands more wounded, and over 100 hostages, including women & children, have been taken back to Gaza ( Video Footage of Massacres ).   Israeli Woman Taken Hostage by Hamas The deadliest massacre so far took place at the Nova Music Festival in the Negev Desert close to Urim, a Jewish community that lives close to the Gaza Strip.  At 6am on Oct. 7th, the attack on the festival began as rockets rained down and Hamas gunmen appeared and opened fire.  As of now over 260 Israelis are confirmed dead from this attack alone with a number o

The Plague of Jihad is all over the world.  The past few days has witnessed Israel suffer the most horrific attack that it has endured since the October War of 1973, yet for all of the senseless death, for all of the footage that we see of Hamas militants murdering Israelis in cold blood, many in the world are in fact celebrating this atrocity.   Hamas Supporters in Canada In Iran, crowds of Hamas supporters took to the streets to celebrate the slaughter of Israelis by Hamas while their government leaders lavished praise on the terrorists ( Link to Article ).  In the nation of Turkey, Hamas supporters crowded the streets of Istanbul chanting "Allahu Akbar" & "Khaybar Khaybar Ya Yahud" ( Link to Video ).  "Khaybar Khaybar ya yahud, jaish Muhammad soufa ya'oud" is the full version of the chant.  It translates to "Khaybar Khaybar or Jews, the Army of Muhammad will return."  For those unfamiliar with the context of this chant, Khaybar was the

Hamas and Their Child Soldier Training Camps

Image
For years the world has known that Hamas deliberately targets children for indoctrination and training to carry out terrorist missions.  They have camps throughout Gaza and other areas of the Middle East where children are taught to hate, & trained to kill.  These camps are often referred to as "Summer Youth Camps."  The titles sound harmless enough, but unlike the summer youth camps in the U.S. and other Western nations where children play games, do crafts, and in general, have fun, the Hamas "Summer Youth Camps" are nothing like this.  They're training camps, where children are trained in weapons handling, military drills, and are indoctrinated to "hate the Infidel," particularly Jews.   Link to Video On videos that have circulated across the online world, these children have openly confessed that they have come here for the purpose of learning to fight.  One such video surfaced on MEMRI with a child openly stating "We did not come here to e
