Jesus assured all believers of that. Everyone and everything down here already had an expiration date. If God allowed someone to expedite the process, well as Paul said to live is Christ to die is gain. It happens all over the world now in other places. It isn't a 'might happen' for those people. Our ultimate survival is not here. The faith and assurance to know where we will end up is comforting regardless. The ability to see outside of here even though we have never been there is a strength in itself. I have God's word. His very promise. That's more than enough for me.

They can outlaw prayer, but who is going to stop praying? The Lord would show the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Christianity were outlawed tomorrow, I would continue with the help of the Holy Spirit to: Love God supremely, and people sacrificially-Mark 12:29-30 Trust in the Lord with all my heart and not to lean on my own understanding, but in all my ways acknowledge Him so that He could direct my paths.-Prov. 3:5-6 Abide in Jesus and let His words abide in me-John 15:7 Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the present time, there are several dozen countries where Christianity is outlawed. The "Voice of the Martyrs" is an organization that would have information on these countries, and the Christians that are presently being executed for their beliefs.

They did not elaborate, but I've heard from several reputable sources, Christian martyrdom today is higher than it has ever been in history? Given the history of the crusades and inquisitions, I don't know, but Islam is sure adding to the count these days. Sadly, it is rapidly coming to America, Christians are the problem in our secular politically correct society. When our government officials openly call Christians a "basket of deplorables", and "domestic terrorists", Houston, we have a problem. Arresting and fining pastors for having services; mandating churches be closed, restricted and non-essential. Whereas, porn shops, taverns and liquor stores are deemed essential services. Pertaining to the Christian church, gay rights, abortion, removal of prayer and the Ten Commandments from public places; and a plethora of other examples; is there any application here? Isaiah 5:20 (KJV) Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! Given the 'millions' that have been put to death for the name and testimony of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. I'm thinking, the Holy Spirit must be emboldening and strengthening Christians in the process of execution, not recanting or cowering? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
