A friend has asked me to help him compile a pan-global, pan-denominational list of Christian martyrs killed since 1995. I wonder if you would be willing to help with this list since I do not have access to Anabaptist martyrs' lists. No politics, no debates please; just lists of those martyred are needed.
Thus far I have found the following:
2023 Nigeria: priest burned alive in his home
2022 - 39 priests kidnapped and martyred in Nigeria; since 2009 there have been more than 32,000 Christians martyred in Nigeria
2015 - 21 Egyptian Coptic Martyrs in Libya (one from Ghana) beheaded when they refused to renounce Jesus. They died with Jesus’ name on their lips.
1996 - 7 Trappist Monks at Tibhirine, Algeria kidnapped and killed.

Re: Modern Martyrs
Any others for the list? I only have the above and my friend is simply wanting numbers of Christians of any denomination or fellowship, no names.MaxPC wrote: ↑Fri Feb 03, 2023 9:16 am A friend has asked me to help him compile a pan-global, pan-denominational list of Christian martyrs killed since 1995.

Re: Modern Martyrs
Often those killed are not biblical born from above obedient saints ....
Example Coptic Christians killed by ISIS had a different Jesus and a different gospel.
Roman Catholics and other false demonizations are killed for a false faith that can't save them ....
How terribly sad .. ..
All truth matters..

Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.

Re: Modern Martyrs
I have added them to the list. It seems there are quite a few in the Middle East. What of other parts of the world? Any all counts since 1995 will be appreciated.ohio jones wrote: ↑Fri Feb 03, 2023 1:28 pm 2007 - 3 employees of a Bible publishing house tortured and murdered in Turkey
