Though I do believe that in coming months . . . all authentic Believers will, on occasion, have to take stands, make assertions, Delcare things by Holy Spirit
which will not be in the center of their PRIMARY calling.
And yes, I do perceive a great evil spreading like cancer around the world. In the U.S. I perceive it shifting into high gear after Israel was regathered to its homeland in the 40s when by judicial fiat the Name of God was banished from public schools and thereafter from most publicly funded venues.
We went from Freedom OF Religion to Freedom FROM Religion. The court in effect established a-theism as the religion of the land.
We went from a nation in the 50s where people spoke openly and reverently about Christ to where we are now - where His Name is used as an expletive by Hollywood without so much as a whimper and where the reverent mention, even indirectly, of His Name in televised sports venues is met with gasps and horror. No wonder in that same period, the unborn are treated as non-human (untermensch) and homosexuality has become widely accepted behavior and the Scriptures deemed "hate speech" because of it (Canada.)
Thank you for your encouragement, dear brother in Christ!
