How to Prepare for Hard Times and Persecution

Hard times and persecution? Will you be ready?

Official government documents say that evangelical Christians are potential terrorists, and some Christian groups are even called hate groups. Christian doctors and nurses are being forced to perform abortions, and a Christian baker has been threatened with prion for not baking a wedding cake for a homosexual couple. Christians in Colorado, New Yorks, and Kentucky are being forced to go through "sensitivity training" in order to "rehabilitate" from their religious beliefs and resulting moral convictions. When communists did such things to American soldiers, we called it brainwashing. 

American Christians are in the early stages of persecution, and it is increasing. Unfortunately, many will be blindsided by it because few pastors and church leaders are warning about it or preparing believers for it.

 The first part of How to Prepare for Hard Time and Persecution is based on years of research into current events looked at from a biblical perspective. It discloses what is happening, how we got there, and where we are heading. The second part gives encouragement from Scripture and biblical principles for dealing with the challenges of the perilous times in which we live. 

As Christians, we cannot afford to compromise our faith. We need to believe and obey the inspired Word of God. We need to be prepared to respond to persecution biblically instead of reacting to it carnally. 

Maria Kneas writes from experience, from a lifetime of needing God's strength for the many challenges she has faced. As a result of these difficult times, Maria has paid close attention when preachers or authors or friends shared insights about receiving God's strength, comfort, and encouragement. Through prayer and careful study of God's Word, she has confirmed those things which are in accordance of the Scriptures.
