In general things for Christians are getting worse, as is predicted in the Bible. There is a great deal of persecution throughout the world, including in so called ‘enlightened’ countries. We know and accept this, it was prophesied. GrammyGrammy speaks the truth, we are given a choice and if we choose not to accept God’s love for us we will not be saved . We are encouraged to keep our mouths shut by contemporary society, however and insults are flung at us.
Is it not so bizarre that there are so so so many ways of being a Christian, with so so so many Churches and denominations. Which is is the 'true' one. Christians seem so good at denigrating all other Christians from different groups, from Plymouth Brethrens, to JWs and strict Scottish Kirk and everything in between, with huge differences in beliefs and practise.
Quite good at flinging insults at each other- and even for 100s of years, killing each other in the most abominable and non Christian of ways.
Let alone the often open hatred they have of other faiths, like Islam. The Crusades and imperialism did not perscute Christians.
