Have you ever wondered why some Christians think they should escape persecution in this world when so many have had to die for their faith in Christ? Just reading Fox's Book Voice of Martyrs reminds us that many people have given their life for the Gospel. This book is about the Great Tribulation of End Times and the Rapture of the Church. We will look at plenty of Biblical evidence that the Church will still be on earth during the Great Tribulation. The Biblical and Historical evidence that the Church is persecuted in the end times by the antichrist and those who follow him are seen in both the words of Jesus and the apostles. Readers need to look at this and prepare their heart and soul to a greater commitment to the Lord than just an escape of Tribulation mentality suggested through a Pre-Tribulation Rapture. As we look at this day's anti-Christian sentiment, we must prepare our heart to stand the test of persecution when it comes. Jesus said that if the world hated Him it would hate us. Since the world crucified Jesus, why do many think that the world would not try to destroy every believer in Christ? Pastor Tony Lineberger has been in ministry for 50 years.
