'''Christianity in Pakistan''' is the story of how the Lord Jesus gains converts to His Name even in the most hostile of areas. Ranked among the 10 worst places for Christians to live, this breakaway province from India exhibits great hostility towards Christians, often through a misuse of so-called blasphemy laws.
__TOC__
== Population of Christians ==
The Population of Christians as estimated by Open Doors 2024 is 4,195,000 or roughly 2% of Pakistan's 23.5 Crore or 235 Million Population.
== Who is most vulnerable to persecution? ==
"Since by far the most Christians live in Punjab Province, many incidents of persecution, discrimination and intolerance occur there. However, next to Punjab, the province of Sindh is also notorious for being a centre for bonded labour, which affects many Christians.
Christians from a Muslim background suffer the brunt of persecution, both from radical Islamic groups who see them as apostates, and from families, friends and neighbours who see conversion as a shameful act of betrayal to family and community." <ref>https://www.opendoors.org/en-US/persecution/countries/pakistan/</ref>
