How To Avoid Persecution

From a Christian perspective, persecution isn’t that hard to evade. One needs only to live as the world lives and by default approve of its standards or lack thereof. Simply engage with the world by using its language, adopting its practices, and enjoying its entertainment.

Furthermore, never confront any sin or engage a sinner in a discussion of their eternal destiny. And never, ever suggest that Christ is the only way and any other religious system is a lie. If questioned, lie about your convictions (which you don’t have) and never publicly take a stand for God or Biblical truths.

Could it be that we suffer so little persecution because we have done just that? Truth be told, many “Christians” are just not that different from the world. If you’re not being persecuted for being a Christian, you’ve got to ask yourself, “Why?”

When one is truly following Christ, they will be persecuted. God’s Word says it will be so.

You watch… You wait… You’ll see!
