“Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his Lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also. But all these things will they do unto you for my name’s sake, because they know not him that sent me.”
John 15:20-21
As Christians, we ARE being persecuted by unbelievers who deny the very existence of God. The link to the video below shows how far government will go to keep us from spreading God’s Word of Salvation. Fortunately, the President of the University has put their plans on hold after much criticism but are STILL evaluating their decision…
Govt. Demands Church Removes Cross and Bibles
Remain comforted that God is still in control and all these people will someday be held accountable for their sins against God!!! Remember, to “…comfort one another with these words.”
I told Don, my husband, just last week, “watch, the Christian symbols will be next.” Well, here we are. This cannot be allowed to happen. We as Christians must not only post on FB & other social media. We must turn up the heat on our elected officials and let them know we will not be intimidated. This applies to city, county, state, and federal officials. We pay their salaries. They work for us. Don’t be a couch-potato. This requires ACTION!!
Gladys, I couldn’t have said it any better BUT if you believe in prophecy and the End Times, I believe this has all been foretold to happen. Think about what it will be like after the Rapture. Who will fight fore the rights of the new converts during the Tribulation?
Mike, did they remove the cross and Bibles?
The video is from June/July and there was a lot of pushback. Instead of saying they would not take the cross down or take away the Bibles, the President of the University said they will be “talking” about it. Today’s PC tells me to put your money on the fact they will remove it!!!
Pretty sad where America is heading. Just further proof that this is not our home
I agree with Gladys. Mike’s annointed and scripture supported blogs should bring great comfort to the Saved as well as a voice of Truth,Hope and Light for those who are lost.These blogs are the result of God’s calling in Mike’s life and Mike’s resolve to follow that call to battle no matter the cost. We all should be praying for God’s direction in our lives to obediently further God’s Kingdom per the Great Commission. God also asks us to recognize evil and boldly STAND for His Righteousness. Remember David’s statement as he boldly stood before evil; “You come to me with a sword and a spear, but I come to you in the name of the Lord of Hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied, This day the Lord will deliver you unto my hand, and I will strike you and take your head from you, and this day I will give the carcasses of the camp of the Philistines to the birds of the air and the wild beast of the earth, that ALL THE EARTH MAY KNOW THAT THERE IS A GOD in Israel”.
There is something about David’s bold statement that convicts me deeply and helps me understand that God wants me to STAND for Him as David.
Yes, we all should recognize that we are IN a fight against Satan and his demons, and that one day at the Bema Seat(2nd Corinthians Ch.5 vs 9-15) we will account for either watching the fight, or Fighting the fight.
We know as Believers that God’s Word is True, and Victory is already won. However, our commission is to warn others and to STAND before man and Honor our Lord.
