Hey guys, welcome back to the show.

Today we're going to be discussing the ongoing worldwide persecution of Christians.

This past Sunday on April 21st, as many people are talking about, there was a series of deadly

terror attacks in Sri Lanka.

As CNN reports, quote, the Sri Lankan government has admitted it failed to act on

multiple warnings before a coordinated series of attacks ripped through churches and

hotels on Easter Sunday, and said it feared an international terror group might have been behind the atrocities.

A government spokesman revealed that warnings were received in the days before the attacks,

which killed 290 people and injured at least 500 more, including from foreign intelligence services.

The spokesman said one of the warnings referred to Nations Thawad Jaman, a little-known local Islamist

group which has previously defaced Buddhist statues.

But he also said he did not believe a local group could have acted

alone. There must be a wider international network behind it, he said. A US

official directly familiar with the US initial intelligence assessment said the

group responsible for the attacks was likely to have been inspired by ISIS.

No group has yet claimed responsibility.

290 people dead with over 500 more injured is obviously a heartbreakingly large body count.

But what makes this terrorist attack even more egregious

is that it targeted Christian churches on Easter Sunday.

And for those of you who don't know,

this past weekend did bring us Good Friday and Easter Sunday, arguably the two most important

days in the Christian religion.
