Yep, we are all in danger, and it’s getting worse.

I’m not too afraid, though.

The Suffering Church is out there, as it has been since the Lord Jesus ascended to Heaven a couple thousand years ago. He Himself said there would be persecutions, so it’s not surprising. I also know that EVERY movement to attempt to stamp out or destroy the Church of Jesus Christ on this Earth has FAILED.

Now, as the End approaches, it’s going to get worse...MUCH worse. Jesus said it would. I’m not going to be surprised if Christianity is one day branded an “outlaw” religion here in the United States. We may have to go underground as so many fellow believers in time immemorial have done, and continue to do to this day. I’ll even go so far as to say that some of us...here, alive today...may have to give our lives for the Gospel of Christ.

But you know what? It’s okay. It’s cliche’, but it’s the truth; I read the end of the Book. He wins. And because He wins, so do we.

You are a Christian who gets it right. There are so many self-styled Christian ministers who preach that God’s plan is that Christians be happy, and healthy, and wealthy here on earth. Far from it.
