OUR WORLD

Imagine a place where policy or practice prevents Christians from obtaining Bibles or other Christian literature. Where government sanctioned circumstances or anti-Christian laws lead to Christians being harassed, imprisoned, killed or deprived of possessions or liberties because of their witness...Belarus, Mauritania, Morocco, Algeria, Libya, Egypt, Sudan, Somalia, Comoros, Syria, Iraq, Azerbaijan, Kuwait, Qatar, Oman, Yemen, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Iran, Afghanistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Bhutan, China, Burma, Laos, Malaysia, Cuba, Maldives....OUR WORLD...

How about where governments try to provide protection for Christians, but Christians are victims of violence or death because of their witness...Indonesia, India, Mindanao, Bangladesh, Turkey, Ethiopia, Israel, Lebanon, Jordan, West Bank, Northern Nigeria...OUR WORLD.



What of America? What is our path?

Every year the list increases. Every day all around the world, brothers and sisters, young and old, are dying for their faith, for lifting up the Gospel of Christ, for taking up their cross. Every day. We here in America sit comfy and cosy in our "safe" place, taking for granted our faith as America slips farther and farther from the truth of God and is being made over into a Godless nation. i urge each Christian to bring Jesus to every area of our lives, beginning with our families. Speak Godly things at home and bring them to work, play, church, wherever you go. Our conversations must be seasoned with the Word of God, with holiness and righteousness and prayer. Time is short, pray and preach hard..Jesus is coming... amen.
