The heart breaking story of two brothers (Wasfi Bakheet Gad Mikhail, 37 years old, and Fahmi Bakheet Gad Mikhail, 27 years old). They went to Libya two years ago looking for work as carpenters. During this month, a Muslim spotted them offered them work and were forced to wear gloves written on them “The Islamic State” and were forced to work as slaves. Later on, there bodies were found dumped in Misurata in Libya, one beheaded and the other shot in the back of the head. Both gained the crown of martyrdom at the hands of the Islamic State (ISIS) in Libya as evidenced from the gloves.
There bodies were found several days later and were sent to their village, Suhag, in Egypt and prayer services was held at the Orthodox Church in the Gerga diocese on Thursday. In the funeral, a group of priests and church members attended.
The scene from the funeral breaks the heart where the mother hovered over her two only sons housed in the very boxes they were shipped back with the postal service “date 11/24/2015, from Tripoli” with the label on one of the boxes that says “the head”. It is the story of John the Baptist over and over again. The congregation wept and prayed in their ancient Coptic style as the mother silently held the boxes in agony:
But it is not only the church services that was sad to watch, or that Egyptian Christian Copts suffer in Libya looking for a bite to eat to only end up consumed by Muslim locusts. The church at Suhag village were the brothers had left two years prior from poverty and persecution, did not escape from the wrath of Cain (the Muslims) who wanted nothing more than the destruction of his brother Abel (the Christian Copts) were these martyrs previously resided. In 2013, just prior to their departure their church endured this:
The demon possessed locusts cry out “by soul by blood we sacrifice to Islam”. Watch every second and see for yourselves and understand why Christ does not only land in Jerusalem, but He also comes into Egypt (Isaiah 19) to rescue these.
The Copts in Egypt are a steadfast stubborn bunch, and just like the two martyred brothers, they refuse to convert to the peaceful religion of Islam.
It gets to prove that everything in the Bible is prophetic. The very words of our King David when he wrote on the enemies of God destroying the gathering places.
We ask you contemplate on the verses, remember them, remember thy suffering brethren and how they endure their holy places the utter destruction from the people of Cain:
Thine adversaries have roared in the midst of thine assembly; They have set up their ensigns for signs. They seemed as men that lifted up Axes upon a thicket of trees. And now all the carved work thereof They break down with hatchet and hammers. They have set thy sanctuary on fire; They have profaned the dwelling-place of thy name by casting it to the ground. They said in their heart, Let us make havoc of them altogether: They have burned up all the synagogues of God in the land. (Psalm 74:3-8)
ارْفَعْ خَطَوَاتِكَ إِلَى الْخِرَبِ الأَبَدِيَّةِ. الْكُلَّ قَدْ حَطَّمَ الْعَدُوُّ فِي الْمَقْدِسِ. 4 قَدْ زَمْجَرَ مُقَاوِمُوكَ فِي وَسَطِ مَعْهَدِكَ جَعَلُوا آيَاتِهِمْ آيَاتٍ. 5 يَبَانُ كَأَنَّهُ رَافِعُ فُؤُوسٍ عَلَى الأَشْجَارِ الْمُشْتَبِكَةِ. 6 وَالآنَ مَنْقُوشَاتِهِ مَعاً بِالْفُؤُوسِ وَالْمَعَاوِلِ يَكْسِرُونَ. 7 أَطْلَقُوا النَّارَ فِي مَقْدِسِكَ. دَنَّسُوا لِلأَرْضِ مَسْكَنَ اسْمِكَ. 8 قَالُوا فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ: [لِنُفْنِينَّهُمْ مَعاً]. أَحْرَقُوا كُلَّ مَعَاهِدِ اللهِ فِي الأَرْضِ.
When the Muslims take over the churches, they destroy God’s carved work and they “set up their ensigns for signs” and “break down with hatchet and hammers” “all the carved work thereof”.
Cutting heads is not enough. It is the Cross of Christ they want to also decapitate:
But the Christians in the Church finally had enough and they go to the rooftop of the Church and fought back with gunfire and rocks. It is only then that the peaceful Muslim cries out that he is now being persecuted.
The devil is cunning. He causes the persecution of the saints and when the saints retaliate and the Muslims are hurt they cry out “persecution”. It is what we witness everywhere from Muslim behavior.
A Christian must be resilient and run the marathon. When Evander Holyfield fought Mike Tyson who belabored that Allah will defeat Evander, the latter took it seriously and promised that his God (Yahweh) will defeat Allah:
It is a war between Yahweh and Allah (Satan). The whole of Psalm 74 is a prayer. If I may ask the reader to pray it on the day of your Sabbath rest:
“O God, why have You cast us off forever? Why does Your anger smoke against the sheep of Your pasture? 2 Remember Your congregation, which You have purchased of old, The tribe of Your inheritance, which You have redeemed– This Mount Zion where You have dwelt. 3 Lift up Your feet to the perpetual desolations. The enemy has damaged everything in the sanctuary. 4 Your enemies roar in the midst of Your meeting place; They set up their banners for signs. 5 They seem like men who lift up Axes among the thick trees. 6 And now they break down its carved work, all at once, With axes and hammers. 7 They have set fire to Your sanctuary; They have defiled the dwelling place of Your name to the ground. 8 They said in their hearts, “Let us destroy them altogether.” They have burned up all the meeting places of God in the land. 9 We do not see our signs; There is no longer any prophet; Nor is there any among us who knows how long. 10 O God, how long will the adversary reproach? Will the enemy blaspheme Your name forever? 11 Why do You withdraw Your hand, even Your right hand? Take it out of Your bosom and destroy them. 12 For God is my King from of old, Working salvation in the midst of the earth. 13 You divided the sea by Your strength; You broke the heads of the sea serpents in the waters. 14 You broke the heads of Leviathan in pieces, And gave him as food to the people inhabiting the wilderness. 15 You broke open the fountain and the flood; You dried up mighty rivers. 16 The day is Yours, the night also is Yours; You have prepared the light and the sun. 17 You have set all the borders of the earth; You have made summer and winter. 18 Remember this, that the enemy has reproached, O Lord, And that a foolish people has blasphemed Your name. 19 Oh, do not deliver the life of Your turtledove to the wild beast! Do not forget the life of Your poor forever. 20 Have respect to the covenant; For the dark places of the earth are full of the haunts of cruelty. 21 Oh, do not let the oppressed return ashamed! Let the poor and needy praise Your name. 22 Arise, O God, plead Your own cause; Remember how the foolish man reproaches You daily. 23 Do not forget the voice of Your enemies; The tumult of those who rise up against You increases continually.
Every life is precious. Rescue Christians calls on persecuted Egyptian Christians who need help to contact us at Rescue Christians and we will arrange a way out of Egypt. God’s wrath will soon come upon Egypt and it is time, just as Moses did, to leave Egypt.
