Soldiers of Faith
There were more Christians persecuted during the 20th century than in all previous centuries put together. The situation has not improved in the 21st century. Barnabas Aid works tirelessly with persecuted Christians throughout the world. The song in this video contrasts the freedoms of Christians in the West with the severe persecution faced by believers in other arts of the world. It urges us to acknowledge the struggles of our fellow Christians’ struggles and to actively support and empathise with them.
For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’
“Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38 When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’
“The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’ Matthew chapter 25
