In Pakistan, religious minorities are being massacred in the extreme of persecution. 1st August "Gojra Tragedy was a terrible and dark day" It is not a single incident but every day we get new dark history in Pakistan.
Our Christian brothers and sisters who were killed in the dark ways, we will never let this shameful event be forgotten.
On this day, August 1, 2009, the tragedy of Gojra took place. When a mischievous Muslim mob unleashed a doomsday on innocent Christians at the behest of a mischievous local cleric, the market for murder and arson was hot when the terrorist mob burnt 8 Christians alive and nearly 40 of their houses a fire was set.
Muslim mobs burned household goods and even Holy Bibles with a volcanic chemical, and the Holy Gospel was publicly desecrated. While in the face of this persecution, those who loved Jesus continued to chant "Long live Jesus" and "Long live Pakistan" and expressed their love for the country.
But unfortunately, the state has always treated Christians like a stepmother and deprived them of their constitutional rights and protection.
