Christian channel opens in Egypt

On the surface, this sounds like good news. It sounds like flame to the oil to me.

"The bishop in charge of Aghapy TV says the channel will not carry anything that could upset Muslims." But here is another statement, three paragraphs later: "Last month three people were killed when Muslims tried to storm a church in Alexandria because a play had been performed there two years earlier (emphasis added)which was deemed offensive to Islam."

From what I have seen, it won't matter. Give them a few months, a few years. Something will be misconstrued, misunderstood, or purposely twisted, to enflame mobs.

Christians will get hurt. Blood will be spilt. But we know, from history, that where the message of Christ is proclaimed, Satan brings opposition.
