Christians Forgive Muslims Who Bombed Church As 24 Die In Egypt by alBHAGDADI: 2:34pm On Dec 15, 2016
Christians in Egypt have forgiven those responsible for the deadly suicide bombing at St. Peter and St. Paul’s Church in Cairo, which left 24 Christians dead and 49 others injured, Coptic Bishop Anba Angaelos told The Christian Post on Wednesday.

Egypt President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi announced on Monday that it was 22-year-old Mahmoud Shafiq Mohammed Mustafa who entered the church attached to the St. Mark’s Coptic Orthodox Cathedral on Sunday morning and detonated a 12-kilogram explosive that killed mostly Christian women and children.

Additionally, four others — three men and one woman — have been arrested on suspicion that they aided the suicide bomber in the terror plot.

But regardless of who is responsible for the attack, Angaelos, the general bishop of the Coptic Orthodox Church in the United Kingdom, told CP in a phone interview that the persecuted Coptic Christian community will not respond to the attack with vengeance.

“We are praying that there is healing in the community. We are ready to and we already have forgiven people for doing this because at the end of the day, a lack of forgiveness harms us more than anyone else,” Angaelos told CP. “I think that is something that we need to be mindful of as Christians, and I am very proud to say that this is something we have seen Copts doing very naturally and organically for decades.”

Yet, they have the effrontery to call themselves the Religion of Peace.

Forgiveness is one attribute Islam doesn't have.

Christianity is a religion of peace and love. Not that one that claims it by mouth while their action depicts violence, suicide, Venegance, unforgiveness, raid etc.

I keep saying it,if you have to fight or kill to defend your god,then your god is weak,you need a new God

Are trying to blame millions of Muslims for the barbarism of ISIS? I don't in any way support the bombing or killing of anybody, truth be told, this same group(ISIS) has killed more Muslims than anyone.

When will all Muslims come out to protest against their so-called religion of peace being allegedly hijacked by ISIS and co? They will never do that.

But these Muslims are ever willing to hit the streets in bloodshed protest just cos a cartoon of pedophile Mohammad was drawn in faraway Denmark.

Hundreds of Thousands of Muslims in Indonesia are currently protesting against a Christian governor who they alleged insulted the Quran. Shouldn't such crowd be more concerned about the terrorists tarnishing the image of their religion?

That's why your religion is the most hated. You were expected to comment on this topic. The least you could do is appalaud these people for forgiving them and not seeking vengeance but you chose to slide off topic.

You can for all I care, u done trying to please you guys. ISIS has been killing Muslims, in fact they're killing Muslims as I'm typing.

There's a video online, if I get, I'll share, in which immediately after the blast Muslims from nearby started to help the injured. It's there online, so trying to blame Egyptian Muslims for the crime of ISIS is very unfair. When this same group killed Christians in Libya, Egyptian Muslims stepped up their fight killing thousands!

Mankind brought all these calamities on themselves when they chose to ditch God's rule for Satan's.

What happened is exactly what Yahshua said his believers will go through- Persecution.

I doubt you have any such video. Moreover, how certain are you that the people that helped the injured weren't Christians like them? This must be some Al taquiya of yours.

As long as Muslims don't stage a worldwide protest to dissociate themselves from ISIS and other terrorists groups, the whole world will continue to blame Islam and the Quran.

Not being born during such events is no excuse not to know what really happened, cos we have the history on the internet.

Yahshua never ordered anyone to kill. He preached forgiveness and urged his followers to turn the other cheek. The Pope of that time was the one who raised an army of crusaders to fight the Muslims who were invading Europe, killing and raping on their way.

Show me a verse by Yahshua that shows he ordered killings. If you can't, then stop saying what you know nothing about. If you don't know, the Catholic Church is not a Christian church but one ruled by Satan, as can be seen in their practices. So, if a Pope raised an army of crusaders who killed Murderous Muslims, there's no way you can tie that action to Christianity. This is cos the author and finisher of the Christian faith condemns and never supported such act as can beaten from his ways and words. But Mohammad and the Quran supports the killing of Christians, infidels and Jews in countless verses .

Will you shut your hole. Fvcking hypocrites. Before Muhammed died he gave 3 instructions to Muslims.
Number 1. Expel Jews, Christians and polithes out of Arabia.
