The 21

Has anyone seen the short animated film on YouTube?
It was utterly inspiring but heartbreaking at the same time. Those men died for something they whole heartedly believed in. Even through the torture they never once denied their faith.

I just watched it.

Glory to God for these men, my brothers and their endurance to the end.

It reminded me so much of Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-Nego who refused to bow to the idol (Daniel 3) and the countless martyrs throughout the ages who have accepted torture and death for their faith in Christ when all they had to do to escape was burn a pinch of incense to the Emperor or say the shahada.

They tortured and slaughtered “our great God and Saviour, Jesus Christ who gave Himself for us” (Titus 2)
Why wouldn’t they do the same to us?

“When He opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain for the word of God and for the testimony which they held. And they cried with a loud voice, saying, “How long, O Lord, holy and true, until You judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?” Then a white robe was given to each of them; and it was said to them that they should rest a little while longer, until both the number of their fellow servants and their brethren, who would be killed as they were, was completed.”
Revelation 5 v 9-11

”And they overcame him (Satan) by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death.”
Revelation 12 :11

@Soitis83 Thank you for bringing this film to our attention.

May the memory of these gentle, loving, brave Christian martyrs live on through this film. May those who murdered them fall on their knees in repentance of their sins.

Watching this film and thinking not only of the 21 but of the thousands recently slaughtered for being Christians in Congo and now also in Syria. 😢😢😢

Exactly! But they are now sleeping and ready for the return, that's exciting! And no greater honour than to die for Him. I believe, as the book of revelations states, that's coming for all of us quite soon.

This has been the fate of many of the followers of Christ since the beginning. And I also believe many of us alive today will face this too. In certain parts of the world huge numbers of our brothers and sisters are already being slaughtered for their faith in Christ, largely underreported in the media.

“ yes, the time is coming that whoever kills you will think that he offers God service.”
John 16:2b

“You will be betrayed even by parents and brothers, relatives and friends; and they will put some of you to death. And you will be hated by all for My name’s sake. But not a hair of your head shall be lost. By your patience possess your souls.”
Luke 21: 16-19
