"Yet, so far," says World Watch Monitor, the outcome is largely contrary to what the original protesters intended, and since Christians are a minority in all Arab countries, they have been especially affected, mostly for the worse.

"In Egypt the revolution resulted in immediate new freedoms that Christians had not experienced before. However after all the upheavals of the last few years, there was no assurance it would last. "Egyptian Christian, Diana Melek says: "The revolution came to the Church shaking it. The revolution shook all of us. They were sleeping and they were shaken awake and they got up, and then they went back to sleep again. First I called it a miracle, it was full of flowers, so it was spring, it seemed a godly spring."

WWM states that Christians across the Middle East thought that new governments would provide them with human rights, and the right to be free to believe in Jesus Christ. But as elections were held, new hard line Islamist political parties, like the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, succeeded in getting into power.

Under the old authoritarian rule, the position of Christians' minority rights was, to a certain extent, safeguarded. The ousting of dictators like Colonel Khaddafi in Libya and Hosni Mubarak in Egypt left a power vacuum that benefited Islamist fundamentalists, and also criminal gang," it says. (Photo via ANS)

"The anti-Christian sentiments of these groups means that violence against both historical Christian minorities and new Believers from Muslim backgrounds has increased.

"The Arab Spring has also birthed the emergence of Islamic State (ISIS) which continues to make international headlines for its barbarity of ethnic cleansing of Christians in Syria and Iraq.

"Because of the on-going chaotic and threatening situation across the region many of the last of the Christian communities continue to leave their native countries en masse, which is a massive blow in the birthplace of the faith. Since the Syrian civil war began in 2011, 700,000 Christians have fled the country."

Syrian Christian Wael Haddad: "We had to pray for Syria, maybe from 40 or 50 years ago. Every time we asked 'Please, Lord, bring a revolution, a spiritual revolution. [God] shake, shake the nest!' ...But maybe we didn't think about how the Lord will allow this to happen to His Church."
