What happens when deception is paraded in front of you, and all many people see is the grandeur or the benefits to them? What happens when "That will never happen here!" does? If your "belief" or convictions told you not to go the way the majority was, would you be able to say no to the conformity being praised? If it cost you your job, your home, maybe even your family, would you stand or would you just go with what was easier and didn't come with great cost, at least at the surface?

Yes, people have believed for hundreds or thousands of years that the end was near. Almost like the "Boy Who Cried Wolf," it just never seemed to pan out, until no one believed anymore. Still, the wolf did come, and the end of time as we know it will come also. However, before then, persecution will escalate, and it will be worldwide. One day the "It will never happen here!" will come to your country, your region, your county . . . and your home.

My intent here is not to scare, not at all! Rather, I hope you think about realities, and "what would you do ifs" . . . and mostly what role, if any, God plays in your life. Persecution is coming. Please, take heed!
