I was just adding a comment to a member's blog and thought I would make a post of my own about what I wrote.

I pray for persecution in our country. I know that probably isn't a popular notion, but I think that persecution is just what we need. It separates the chaff from the wheat. It also makes the lukewarm among us stand up for our Lord again and get excited.

People generally think the sin of Sodom was homosexuality. Yes, that sin was present, but that sin was a symptom of a much deeper sin. In Ezekiel 16:49-50, the Word says, "Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy. They were haughty and did detestable things before me. Therefore I did away with them as you have seen." Now, that sounds alot like America to me. How about you? I have heard people say many times that if God does not destroy America, He is going to have to apologize to Sodom and Gomorrah.

I don't want God to destroy us. That is why I am praying for persecution - so that the people in this country can repent of their sins before God and stop Him from destroying us.

Amen!

It will be here without too much prayer I am afraid, the writing has been on the wall for years. When Christ is finally put out of the public eye, the persecution will stare wholesale, all over this nation.



For me to live is Christ and to die is gain.
