Persecution Ramping Up At The End Of The Age

The Persecution Of Christians Is About To Get Much Worse

Alan Barton

“Today, according to ACN research, almost 340 million Christians around the world—or 1 out of every 8—live in a country where they suffer some form of persecution, such as arbitrary arrest, violence, a full range of human rights violations and even murder. “

One article that was in a way sardonic in its view of Christian Persecution is the Soros funded Wikipedia where they state in the first line “This article is about the religious persecution of Christians. For the belief that Christianity is being oppressed in the Western world, see Christian persecution complex.”   So, we Christians have a “complex” because we just think we are being persecuted?  Excuse me if I misread that line, but it occurs to me to be psychological negativity to any thought of being persecuted.   Many other articles cover the very severe persecutions after the death and resurrection of Jesus as covering the worst of Christian persecution and murder, also known as the Great Persecution or the Diocletian Persecutions of the Roman Empire.  It is suggested that the coming one, which we are seeing in its beginnings right now, will be worse.

Another view is from Christianity dot com who said “This Is The Age of Martyrs
In a recent article, Justin D. Long emphasized the startling fact that more people have died for their faith in the Twentieth Century than in all of the previous centuries combined. “During this century, we have documented cases in excess of 26 million martyrs. From AD 33 to 1900, we have documented 14 million martyrs.”   They then mentioned that it appears that is on the decline the last few years.  I take exception to that, as it appears to actually be increasing from what I see in the news.  

“British Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt commissioned a study into global Christian persecution, and the results are nothing short of horrible. The ultimate conclusion that was reached by the study is that the persecution of Christians throughout the world is so severe that it is reaching a level that can be described, by definition, as genocide.

Ultimately, the study found that nearly one in three individuals around the world suffer from some religious persecution. Unfortunately for Christians, the problem that emerged is they were the most likely group to suffer from persecution of the religious variety. To quote the report “the inconvenient truth that the overwhelming majority (estimated at 80%) of persecuted religious believers are Christians.””  Wrote NKT News Online in 2019, and concluded that “There might be a time when Christians are actively being wiped outand suppressed, leading to the end of Christianity as it is today.”
