Street Preachers Killed In United States
WASHINGTON, USA (BosNewsLife)– A religious liberty group
warned Saturday, February 6, that 'Anti-Christian
hostility is getting increasingly deadly' in the United
States after two street preachers were shot and killed by a
teenager who apparently opposed their message.
'The increasing demonization of Christians in our culture
makes some feel its open season on Christians,' said Gary
Cass of the Christian Anti-Defamation Commission.
Tite Sufra, 24, and Stephen Ocean, 23, were shot and killed
in Boynton Beach in the U.S. State of Florida where they
evangelized last Saturday, January 30, after meeting Jeriah
Woody, 18, local police said.
'They witnessed to Woody for fifteen minutes when he got
a phone call and told the preachers he ‘had to go’,
added the Commission, which closely monitored the case.
CHRISTIANS EXECUTED
'As they walked away, Woody suddenly started walking back
toward them. Sufra walked up to greet him and was killed
with a shot gun blast at point blank range. When Ocean ran,
he was shot in the back. After he fell, Woody shot him in
the head execution style.'
Woody was detained Wednesday, February 3, and is charged
with two counts of first-degree murder. Bail was reportedly
denied to him.
Cass complained about a lack of interest in national media.
'As of today, there are no national news organizations
reporting this vicious murder of two innocent Christian men.
Why?' Cass said, “I’ll ask this: If two Muslims, or
two feminists or two homosexuals were murdered, wouldn’t
the media be all over it? These were two fine young black
Christian men shot by another black man for their Christian
faith, yet the media does not seem to care.”
'OMINOUS SIGN'
He described the case as “an ominous sign” of times
'that Christians are being shot on the streets and in our
churches.'
Last year Jim Pullion was killed while holding pro-life
signs in front of his granddaughter’s Owasso Michigan high
school. Reverend Fred Winters was murdered while preaching
in his pulpit inMaryville, Illinois.
'Increasingly we see Christian ministers threatened and
churches terrorized and vandalized for their stand on
marriage. Now when Christians gather for worship they must
have armed security.'
He said, “Anti-Christian defamation and bigotry has
helped to create this violent climate and it must stop.”
