Overview
Most American Christians are ignorant of Islam's teachings and assume it to be an alternative path to the God of the Bible. Edward Shafik is the son of a Baptist pastor who ministered in Egypt for thirty years. He knows firsthand these lies and unravels their origins in this spellbinding novel.Born and raised in Egypt, Ed is personally familiar with the persecution of its Coptic Christians. Paradise Regained is based on the true story of six fine young men who were murdered for their faith-murders which may well have been ordered and paid for by the Egyptian government itself.
These murders were well documented, taking place at a Christmas Mass service in Nag Hammadi, Egypt on January 6, 2010. The faces of these young men will be indelibly marked on your memory as you read of their lives, their loved ones, and their unwarranted deaths. Ed brings to life, with terrifying detail, the fear these Egyptian Christians endure, as well as the corruption which blinds its government to such crimes.
Finally, he takes us to New Jerusalem and paints an unforgettable tapestry of heavenly realms and the paradise that Mohammed's followers have lost.
Be warned-you will never again be complacent about the dangers of Islam. It is not a "religion of peace."
