  1. Active or physical prosecutions take place on all continents where brothers and sisters are being tortured and killed. Passive and subtle "prosecutions" by Satan is to me the more severe of the two. Souls are being swayed to choose death even though they think they choose life. The warnings to the seven churches refer to these dangers. The Book of Revelation can comfort them all, as it sets a clear message to EVERY believer (not just the prosecuted) that you must choose. That free will, that God will not interfer with, must choose between Him (eternal life in the New Jerusalem) or eternal damnation. The promises of God can only be accepted through faith, and in answering this question the comfort lies in believing in the reward promised by Father. Soli Deo Gloria
  2. These words confirms that our God has allways been. These words were also used by Christ and confirms the trinity. It confirms that Jesus is truly God (John 1:1)
  3. Q1. Testimony and witnessing forms important tools to strengthen one's FAITH and HOPE for the end goal, which is eternal life with our tiune God. A witness testifying about himself carries more weight than other testimonies and encourages us to perservere as He did as man, to attain the prize. I do not believe that it is a question of being "affraid", it is more like being reluctant or luke warm to be a witness. The persecution does not lie in the physical but in the spiritual plain. (Our battle is not against flesh and blood, but against the spirits and principalities of the air) "Prosecution" can be the removing of the Christian morals and priciples from legislation and social norms, like same sex marriages. These attacks will intensify and will subdue and therefore beat some to submission. Thankfully, the allpowerful and loving God will not allow it if we heed His warnings in Revelations.
  4. Hullo to all in His wonderful name. My wife and myself do want to understand more of what God told us through John in Revelation. We look forward to learning and sharing what the Holy Spirit is going to reveal in His infinite wisdom. We moved to New Zealand 3 years ago from South Africa; and were called to intercede daily for the unification of the Church and revival of spiritual warriors. In everything we do, it must be for the glory of God. We are looking forward to the next 8 weeks. Soli Deo Gloria Hennie & Elsie
