Somali Girl, 17, Shot to Death for Embracing Christ

"They will make you outcasts from the synagogue, but an hour is coming for everyone who kills you to think that he is offering service to God. 3 "These things they will do because they have not known the Father or Me.  John 16:2-3 2

It seems another young person, this time a 17 year old Somali girl, has been tortured, and then put to death in an "honor killing" by her parents for leaving Islam and embracing Christ.  Christian post reports that:

“Reports reached the relatives in Galgadud that Nurta Farah had converted to Christianity,” one source said. “The suspicion that the family is responsible is a solid one. The sister was killed in Abudwaq, a district in Galgadud Region, and the place where the incident took place is about 200 meters from where the sister was staying with relatives.”


Relatives buried Farah, sources said. Her parents had severely beaten her for leaving Islam and regularly shackled her to a tree at their home, Christian sources said. She had been confined to her home in Gedo region in southern Somalia since May 10, when her family found out that she had embraced Christianity, said a Christian leader who visited the area.

Another example of this "religion of peace."  But fortunately for Nurta, she found true peace, the only lasting, eternal peace.  And when she stand before her God, she will have the honor of her Lord Jesus Christ, who died for her, shed His own blood as a propitiation, for her sins. 

"And God made Him who knew no sin, to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in HIm."  2 Cor. 5:21
