Egypt: 1000 Years Later Muslims Burning Again Churches – But They Can’t Extinguish Christianity

“For if we do evil on purpose after we have had the knowledge of what is true, there is no more offering for sins, but only a great fear of being judged, and of the fire of wrath which will be the destruction of the haters of God.” [Heb 10:26-27]
