Shahbaz Bhatti, the only Christian to serve in Pakistan’s federal cabinet at the time, was widely respected for his strong faith and courage.
Despite living in an environment where Christians often faced discrimination and danger, he remained committed to defending justice and speaking up for religious minorities.
Bhatti understood the serious risks that came with his work, but he refused to abandon his beliefs.
Before he was killed, he recorded a heartfelt message in which he expressed his complete trust in Jesus Christ.
He said he would never turn away from his faith and was prepared to stand for what he believed was right, even if it cost him his life.
