Read this article: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1214666/Christian-hotel-owners-hauled-court-defending-beliefs-discussion-Muslim-guest.html

Read the guest book of these persecuted Christians: http://users2.smartgb.com/g/g.php?a=s&i=g25-35791-5a&m=all&p=1

And please, if you can, do something for them. This is so shocking.

Jesaja,
There is nothing to read on the Bounty House Hotel Guest feedback page for which you provided a link except a statement from the hotel owners that the page is for genuine feedback on their hotel service, and that if anyone wishes to offer support in connection with the published court case they may email them at tlc@bountyhouse.co.uk.

I see that they have removed the supportive messages. But the painful incident of course stays. What do you, fellow Christians, think of this?

I think we need to allow the legal system to work before we judge this situation. All the facts are not being placed out there (rightly because of the legal process) and untill one can see all the facts the judgment would be unduly biased.

Looks like the legal system will get it right IMO.

Blessings,
Randy

I'm not conversant in British law and, of course, my knowledge of the case is limited to what I read in the article, which itself says not all of the facts are known, but it appears that the local authorities have enforced a law in a way that the legislators never intended. That would be much like the way prosecutors and courts have used RICO, intended to combat organized racketeering, against pro-life protesters in the United States. It looks to me like another example of the world attacking those who follow Christ, which has been going on since the very beginning. I think the best thing we can do is pray that God's will be done and that his children remain firm in their faith. Who knows? Perhaps God intends to save the Muslims involved in this case through the entire process.
