Christians should keep their mouths shut until they are being fed to the lions, right?

Christians should keep their mouths shut until they are being fed to the lions, right? No, but crying wolf does Christians no good.

Christians should keep their mouths shut until they are being fed to the lions, right? Perhaps if we're following the example of Christ on the way to the cross, we just might. Many who walked with Jesus expected Him to free them from the persecution of the Romans.
Being "forbidden" to display my plastic baby Jesus is not persecution.
