This incident represents a disturbing evolution where state authorities (police) openly permitted violence against mandated religious education, effectively nullifying Indonesia's Pancasila policy of religious unity. The targeting of legally-required Christian instruction, rather than voluntary worship, suggests systematic dismantling of religious protections at an institutional level.
Indonesia: Muslim Mob Attacks Christian Children's Prayer House
📰 What Happened
On July 27, 2025, a Muslim mob attacked a Christian prayer house in Padang Sarai village, Indonesia, where children were receiving state-mandated religious education. The attackers, shouting 'Allahu Akbar,' wielded wooden blocks, knives and stones, injuring two Christian children ages 7 and 11. Police officers observed but did not intervene as the mob damaged property and disrupted services at the Anugerah Faithful Christian Church. Pastor F. Dachi reported the attack occurred suddenly during instruction.
📖 Prophetic Significance
The economic implications are significant as Indonesia, the world's largest Muslim-majority nation, shows signs of rejecting its secular economic framework. The attack on state-mandated religious education indicates potential shift toward Islamic economic controls. The police non-intervention suggests official tolerance for religious-based economic discrimination. This aligns with Rev 13's economic control system where religious ideology drives financial access. The targeting of children's education points to long-term systematic changes in Indonesia's economic-religious landscape.
