Christian Convictions Challenged in Libya
Faith Facts
- Amnesty International is calling on Libyan authorities to overturn the convictions of Christians prosecuted for their faith.
- Several individuals were sentenced for activities like sharing Christian materials and alleged proselytism.
- Libya’s laws continue to put many faithful believers at risk simply for expressing their Christian beliefs.
Amnesty International has appealed to Libya to reconsider the convictions handed down to Christians whose only “crime” was following and sharing their faith.
These convictions highlight the difficulties believers face in many parts of the world, reminding us of the blessings and freedoms we enjoy and must protect.
Let us remember our brothers and sisters who remain faithful under persecution and continue to advocate for religious liberty everywhere.
Faith in Christ should never be a punishable offense, and the global Church must pray and stand up for those without a voice.
Stay engaged, pray for the persecuted, and defend your right to religious liberty wherever you are.
