Christianity, Persecuted Until The Rapture: Special Edition With Epilogue The Mark Of The Beast - Paperback

by Kim L. Smallwood (Author)

Christianity, Persecuted Until The Rapture. Persecution exists in many forms from subtle nuances to overt physical torture and even death. Christianity has not only survived but flourished in all the forms of persecution that have been unleashed upon believers for over 2000 years. The reason is that believers in Christ understand that they are transient in this world and headed toward an eternity far removed from any pain, suffering, or despair. We are merely passing thru this life and any persecution is only momentary and He provides strength and grace for enduring, standing strong. "For this slight momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, because we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen, for the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal" 2 Cor 4:17-18, RSV
