The Sudanese mother who was sentenced to death for refusing to give up her Christian faith has spoken about her ordeal for the first time, saying she never once considered giving in and that she made her stand on behalf of all those facing persecution around the world because of their religious beliefs.
Nearly two months after finally being allowed to flee her native country and taking refuge in the United States, Meriam Yahya Ibrahim, 27, said she had been subjected to intense daily pressure while in prison to accept conversion to Islam but that she consistently refused to give in to her captors’ demands.
“If I did that that would mean that I gave up,” she said in a first interview given to the Fox News Channel in the US.
“It’s my right to follow the religion of my choice. I am not the only one suffering from this problem. “I put my life at risk for the women of Sudan and for Christians who live under difficult circumstances, persecuted and treated harshly. There are many Meriams in Sudan and throughout the world.”

For GOD So loved the world, that HE Gave His only Begotten SON, that whosoever believeth in Him should not Perish, but have Everlasting Life. 17 For GOD sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world; But that the world through Him might be Saved. 18 He that BELIEVETH on Him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten son of GOD. JOHN 3:16--21

Haba ! . Merian God is the God of peace, and those who force people to their religion are ignorant of which God they serve. She has repented, been delivered and has followed the right way. "JESUS way." the only way.
