BEWARE THE SIGNS OF ANOTHER HOLOCAUST
By Thea | August 14, 2007
I grow more and more alarmed at what I see all the time in the media and in everyday life. Things are not looking up for Christians in today’s world. I have been doing some reading on WWII and the holocaust. It freaks me out to read about the beginnings and seeds of WWII, Hitler, and the genocide of the Jews. It all started with hate. Hatred of the Jews simmered and simmered. The pot was stirred and the flames fed as Germany started to put action to the propaganda of hate. Eventually that hate spread until the fire consumed many of the Jewish people, much of Europe, and eventually affected the entire world. Shockingly, much of the world sat by and turned the other way not willing to face a terrible evil and deal with it before it was too late. What could have been stopped was not stopped.
To be frank, I do not see much difference between that time and our own. I feel that we might be in the seeds and beginnings of yet another holocaust. This time those of us who love Jesus Christ are in danger. Hatred for Christians is spreading at an alarming pace throughout the United States, Europe, and the rest of the world. Christians have been dealing with persecution and martyrdom all over the world, but so far we Christians in America have been pretty much safe from the worst. I don’t know how much longer that will last. Hatred is simmering and the fire is being fed. We are coming under attack more and more. Christians are being arrested for handing out pamphlets, shut up from speaking their heart at events like graduations, and are losing their jobs for holding to their beliefs. Our freedoms are in danger everyday as the liberal politicians in Washington are trying to silence us even further.
I write all of this not to scare people, just to inform. I just want us all to be ready for a little heat. Maybe, if we refuse to learn from the past, a lot of heat. Are we all ready to face that here? If our world of safety and freedom is shaken will we still stand firm? Let’s not be caught unaware if the flame seeks to devour us very soon. Jesus told us to remember that if the world hates us that it hated Him first! Let’s not be surprised, just ready.
