In a Facebook post, the Union of the Armenian Evangelical Churches in the Near East is calling on its partners throughout the world to join them and all Armenians in their call for justice and peace.
Further, it is urging people to pray to Almighty God to ‘let justice roll down like waters, and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream’ (Amos 5.24) in response to ongoing problems in Nagorno-Karabagh, a region disputed by Armenia and Azerbaijan.
An open letter, signed by leaders from a very broad range of Christian denominations in Azerbaijan encouraged readers not to mix ‘sacred with not sacred’. It noted: ‘This is a political war, it has nothing to do with Christianity.’
