What do you think? Will American Christians suffer persecution in your lifetime? I don't mean having to deal with snarky comments from Bill Maher or Chris Matthews, I mean roundups, imprisonments, executions, confiscations of children, property, etc...?

Oh yes. That particular snowball started rolling a few decades ago but has reached a speed where we will start seeing true "FEMA Camp" style persecution very soon, that is unless civil war interrupts the process which is also a distinct possibility.

I meant to add 'don't know', so if you don't know just post a response.

Yes. Anti-bullying and anti-hate speech laws will soon be applied to everyone everywhere, including ministers and churches. Anyone using "hate speech" (ex preaching against sin) will be fined or jailed for their offense.

YES! It may start like that. It will get worse.

Anti-bullying is one things. Bullying is harassment. Usually its against one specific person. The constitution is not clear on things like healthcare. But its very very very clear on freedom of speech. I would have a fat payday coming my way if the Govt arrested me for something I said. Especially something I said in a religious setting. You say will be like you know for sure. Religious paranoia much?

No, don't think so. But my lifetime is probably no more than thirty years at best.

Not that it is IMPOSSIBLE, but I don't believe that the United States of America will EVER see the true persecution of Christians.

I believe America is special.
I believe GOD has a plan of preservation for us-- through the tribulation period where we will see Christian persecution in other places around the world. We will be in a place politically and economically where our influence will be of no effect.

GOD is going to use a nation to help Israel.
The USA will be that nation.

I believe America is Mystery Babylon. Saints will be put to death for sport. Lots of them.

Amen! The Beast (One World Government) will rule the world from America.
On his back, will come in Mystery Babylon (One World Religion)

Michael, did I send you one of my books? What did you think of it? I'd like to have some feedback.
