Christianity Under Attack

Tonight on ABC news they plan to do a specail report on Christianity and see if Christainity is under attack in America.
What do you think?
How do we see Christianity under attack?
Here is just a few:
1.Media/ Shows making fun of Jesus, God and Clergy.
2.Marriage Issue in America
3.We see documentaries on Jesus questioning his life, the bible but how many documentaries do we see on other religions?
4.The push to remove God from the pledge.
5. The push to remove the 10 commandments from public places.
6.The push to take God and scripture off of everything that is american (money, buildings, monuments)
Just to name a few.
Can you come up with any other ways we see Christianity under attack today?
Should this shock us?
Jesus tells us we should expect persecution. Matthew 5:11-12 "Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Rejocie and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you." "If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first." John 15:18.
So what are we do? Expect it. And remian faithful to God during it.
We as Christians must continue to show Jesus to the world even when we are persecuted.
John 13:34-35 "A new command I give you; Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this all men will know that you are my disciples if you love one another."
Let us show our love to each other especailly during times of trial and persecution.

  1. Just a quick note to thank you for commenting on the blog. Looking at the profile, we have much in common (except the luv you show the 'boys). Anyway, I'm a grad of Dallas Christian and have some grad studies at Austin Grad. I'm in the MDIV at Lubbock in the fall. Could really use some advice if you're available. If so, the email is newhopepreach@yahoo.com

    Blessings Bro!
