American Christians think they are “persecuted” if someone makes fun of their faith or the minister preaches over his allotted 15 minute sermon. American Christians, in large number, follow “prosperity and positive thinking” Elmer Gantrys to find out how much more they can get from the Heavenly Lottery.

Churches should be ashamed and be on their knees begging God for forgiveness when they read stories like this one. But no, they will continue to follow the lukewarm “speak it and receive it” doctrines until God spews them out of his mouth.

Pray and fast for our fellow brothers and sisters all over the world who face real persecution and ask God for the strength to persevere it when it happens here.

Nowadays, Urban Christianity,( Congregationalists, Universalists, Unitarians, Presbyterians)....name your group...
gets by:
1. Hanging Rainbow Flags on the Church;
2. Going Solar and alternate energy;
3. Doing marches against the Second Amendment;
4. Having Prayer meetings “For Peace” (what ever that means);
5. Doing ecumenical services especially with Churches who have parishioners whose sons have been shot by police;
6. Support Modern Art (what ever that is);
7. Have Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners for people who would rather not cook for themselves;
8. Politic against Fracking;
9. Praise the Diversity that Obama has brought to Washington;
10. Support the Palestinians and “Activist” Muslims.
11. Form Committees for JUDICIAL REMEDIES TO THE KILLING OF AFRICAN AMERICAN BOYS AND MEN (by Whites establishment).
That is my ten +one. You will note that NONE include ministering to the People subjected to Muslim Coercions.

As a kid, I wondered if my faith is so weak that God placed me in the U.S. where I could worship “safely.”
