What in the world is going on? I'm listening to the news and all that I'm hearing this evening is bad things happening to Christians. First, a man has shot some students at a Korean Christian collage in Oakland California. Seven were killed and two others were injured. Apparently the shooter used to attend classes there, but there hasn't been an explanation as to why he did what he did. Second, a girl at a church here in Virginia got sexually harassed by a man who was supposed to a preacher. She didn't get physically harassed (thank God!) but the man did proposition her and harass her over the phone, which is bad enough.
I just don't see why people feel the need to do these kinds of things. Are Christians easy prey, or is it out of a hatred for Jesus? I don't know, maybe it's a combination of both but it's heartbreaking to hear about. I know that as time goes on it will get much, much worse. Christians in other countries are already going through terrible persecutions which, I believe are a precursor to what the entire world's population of Christians are going to go through pretty soon. I pray that we will lean on Jesus for the strength to endure these coming times and the courage to run the race until the finish.
