Their masked executors stood in all black behind the men, who knelt in a line wearing orange jumpsuits. After the Islamic State released a video of their murders, images of this massacre of Coptic Christians reverberated around the world.\\nBut despite the cultural impact left, Egyptian Christians have long experienced persecution, says Archbishop Angaelos, who serves in London.\\n\\u201cThe interesting thing is, we live it with a sense of resilience, but we have never fallen into a state of victimhood or triumphalism,\\u201d he said. \\u201cWe realize that it is the cross of Christ. \\u2026It's not the end of the road because there is a resurrection that comes after the cross and the empty tomb. And so it is in that hope that we continue to live.
