What American Christians call “fiery trials” is an affront to God, defiles true martyrs both dead and alive, and is an astonishingly novel way to exhibit clandestine self righteousness.
This same attitude has many western Christians expecting to participate in "God's rescue plan" that would snatch them from the earth before they had to face any serious persecution.
Additional communications to me may be e-mailed to spcrick@msn.com. Any negative e-mails will be deleted without response, however sincere questions will be answered. I seek edification and deeper knowledge of Christ and His truth not a destructive and meaningless religious chatter. May God's Spirit open all of our hearts to Him.
I am an ordained Baptist minister but more importantly I am a follower of the Lord Jesus Christ. I was saved in 1975 watching Billy Graham on television after having lived a wicked and Christless life. I graduated with a three year degree from Trinity Bible College in Dunedin, Florida. I have three children, two grandsons, and one granddaughter. I not only see the obvious falling away of the present day church, but I humbly acknowledge that we all are in desperate need of a massive revival. I hope this blog ministers to you, and may Jesus Himself receive all the preeminence!

A good point. I would suggest that much of the western church has succumbed to an insidious form of persecution disguised as "blessings".
