YEREVAN, JULY 31, ARMENPRESS. The 36-year-old American missionary Sebastian James has recently published a book titled “Expected Awakening", one of the central ideas of which is that “without facing with the Armenian Genocide, Turkey won’t find rest.”

As “Armenpress” reports, in an interview to “Agos” Sebastian James said that last 12 years of his life he spent distributing Bible in Turkey, Pakistan and Palestine, explored the lives of Christians in these countries and tried to understand why the number of Christians previously  constituting one-third of the population in those areas, now is  insignificant. “After Afghanistan the least number of Christians currently lives in Turkey among those countries, when 100 years ago 33 percent of the population were Christians. Such decline of the Christian population gave me a reason to think on discovering the cause of that.  In Turkey people are taught wrong things. These lies are also connected with Christians living previously in this country, with Christianity and with Bible. Many lies are about Armenian Genocide. The purpose of that is not only to disguise their sins but also to slander Armenians  by saying “We didn’t do that, they did  it” and commit another new crime,” Sebastian James noted.
