SDAs BEATEN, IMPRISONED AND CHURCH CLOSED — MALEK PAYAM, YIROL EAST COUNTY, LAKES STATE.
Last week, the administration of Malek Payam decreed an SDA Church shutdown and warned its members thereof not to preach the gospel again.
Yesterday, it happened that the saints went to Church to worship God as His command is. When society saw that, they were cut to hearts, therefore they sent soldiers to beat the praying folks. When soldiers arrived at the church, they called elders out — six of them, took them to the police departmental station.
Afterwards, the police tortured the elders severely, and sent them to prison cell; for the gospel's sake.
QN: As a true South Sudanese, is the 23rd article of SSD Transitional Constitution still valid!?
NB: Jesus warned His followers that they will be hated, persecuted, denounced by their fellow men just for gospel's sake.
So, it's not something new to face fiery trials, even the prophets and Christ HIMSELF were harshly reviled, ridiculed and oppressed. If they persecuted our first pioneers, who are we to be safe!?
Jesus is coming, holdfast your Faith 🙏
