Romans 8:35, 38-39, “Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? [Shall] tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? … For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

ICC – “Eight Christians in Bangladesh remain hospitalized, three in critical condition, following a violent attack by Muslim Extremists. Violence against religious minorities, namely Christians and Hindus, has been on the rise both pre and post-election as the extremists have attempted to gain greater political control.

On January, 7, 2014, around 11:00am, four Muslim extremists, descended on the home of Soren Kubi in the village of Bagra Gram in the Jamalpur district. After attacking Soren Kubi with ‘big knives and local lethal weapons’ they ‘beat him severely before vandalizing and looting his house,’ said an International Christian Concern (ICC) contact.

Unfortunately, Soren Kubi, who is the older brother of Bishop Ponen Kubi, the Bishop of the Diocese of Mymensigh, was not the only victim. The attackers, who are brothers, also ‘violently injured’ other Christians in the home at the time; Nirmala Dalboth, Marcila Khokshi, Polita Dalboth, Paulinus Dalboth, and Rajib Rema.

Two neighboring Muslims, Bipul Kha and Monjur Mandal were also attacked when they rushed to aid the victims. The injured have been taken to Medical College Hospital in Dhaka, Mymensingh Government Hospital, and to the to Jamalpur Health Complex.

The attackers, Dudu Kha and his three brothers Jalil Kha, Chhanu Kha and Eski Kha have not been charged nor arrested. The rest of the villagers are ‘passing their days in panic without any sufficient security,’ said an ICC contact.” Read more.
