(Compass) – Two Christian health workers in Bangladesh were hacked to death on July 29. Police and local officials believe Islamic extremists likely were responsible for the murders. The incident took place about 150 kilometers from the capital, Dhaka . Tapan Kumar Roy, 30, and Liplal Marandi, 35, worked for Christian Life Bangladesh (CLB). Along with educational films on arsenic poisoning, mother-and-child health care and AIDS prevention, they often showed the Jesus Film at the invitation of local villagers. A well-known Christian leader familiar with the two evangelists said an official at a local madrassa (Islamic school) had threatened the men verbally prior to the murders. Some villagers had also threatened to kill Roy and Marandi if they continued to show the Jesus Film. Police arrested a man named Monir Hossain in connection with the murders, which they are still investigating. Bangladesh is facing an overall deterioration in human rights, both for the Muslims who form 83 percent of the population and for religious minorities.

Americans should be ashamed of themselves that call themselves Christians who sit comfortable in pews thinking the whole while of vacations and other worldly endeavors . We need to quit trying to keep up with the jones and be more like this woman instead of seeking creature comforts . Pastors /Ministers need to preach more on the Cross and more on the dangers of Christians trying to fit in to the worlds culture of wanting more than they need .

Here's what one reader shared:
"The Last Words of the Martyrs tell the courageous stories of people who are committed and dependent on our Lord in ways few in the West have ever been. Even more importantly for us in the church, to "translate" what occurred into lessons for us to better understand, and then apply in our walk with the Lord. One lesson is that God uses what is clearly evil, and builds His Church in persecuted areas of the world. Many in the West have become too comfortable in our ease, busyness, and distractions to even consider getting out of our comfort zone to be salt and light for Jesus, to our dark and darkening culture, to reach out to people that God loves to be reconciled to."
