What Would You Do IF this Comes to Fruition Worldwide & You're Persecuted to Accept?

Each of us are aware of tolerance and political correctness eclipsing our nation and world. The push is for a world without “hate,” and for acceptance of diversity on all levels (save one group), and for unity, and peace. This propaganda is being taught from elementary education and into our universities. I say it is filled with hypocrisy and is not as it appears. Folks in church have expressed some concern about this problem.

At first glance this may seem good and acceptable, but in light of holiness, God’s purpose, sin, judgment to come, and righteousness, something is definitely amiss.

Love, acceptance, peace and tolerance of each and every(?) lifestyle is being preached from many venues; from Hollywood stars to even our neighbors and other activist groups to tolerate and accept almost anything, except, of course holiness, God, and His Word. Hostility towards what is good, and against those who embrace a Biblical “good” is becoming increasingly more prevalent. Biblical morality is not tolerated, since it in itself is viewed as hate. The world system wants to erase this and supplant this with man’s version of peace and unity.

Seemingly eventually only one group will not be tolerated. Things that believers stand against are being pressed upon them and especially upon their children. To disagree with such things is asking to be ridiculed and persecuted. We are being pressed into the mold of the world and must reject this as Romans 12:1 instructs us.

I don’t believe for a moment that any of the above is truly “love” and truly “peace” but is in general an appeasement, as those who preach these things also share a certain amount of detestation for any person who does not accept their position, or tolerate what they tolerate. Rather, I believe it is an incentive to rid the world of all things God, for the sake of peace, while at the same time some proponents thereof may be thinking they are doing God a service. But I don’t believe that all persons think this is ridding the world of all things God, since some groups could merely see this as advancement of the Kingdom and of God’s program. Just think of liberal theology, for instance.

Now, onto some theological a views; Dominion Theology, Kingdom Now theology, Reconstructionism, and hyper-preterist views all accept to an extent that either right now is the Kingdom of God though not perfect and complete, and/or believe somehow governments or other means will usher in the perfect, completed Kingdom, the former believing this will take place via Christians in public office using theocratic law &c. This is akin to 1 Corinthians 15:24, the delivering up of this world to God by Christ, as a “spiritualized” fulfillment of that, or that it will bring the Second Coming of Christ, depending upon who you talk to, or what you read or listen to.

I don't see Christianity eclipsing this world, I see the opposite, but I can see that others may feel this "peace love and unity" as the true "Gospel."

Will then, liberal theology, Reconstructionism, Dominion Theology, Kingdom Now theology, hyper-preterist views, or types of this, and/or other theologies ecumenize and embrace the current tolerant political agenda of the world, for peace and harmony, as simply Gods way of bringing in His rule onto earth in a “spiritual” sense? And, will the more conservative of the groups drop their biblical views against sin &c to help this come to fruition, for the sake of peace, unity and harmony?

Is this what God’s Kingdom is to be in all its glory? Is the world’s tolerant view culminating into all that God meant His kingdom to be, or is this just plain error and deception going the route of perhaps a neo-Babel?

Is this God’s program in a nutshell, to bring all peoples, repentant and not, into unity and harmony, peace and unity, while wicked and those yet unregenerate sinners, show forth that conservative Biblical Christians just have it all wrong?

Could some of the above theological camps accept this type of worldwide political mission (tolerance, acceptance, peace, unity) as being used to establish the “spiritual kingdom of God” in full order, and attempt to force this upon Churches as a new kind of Gospel? Is this what God is using to bring in full form His Spiritual and eternal Kingdom, as some of them believe it will come about (via politics, governments, even military)?

Can you see other believers being persecuted for not accepting this “spiritualized kingdom” while instead awaiting literal fulfillment of the Second Coming? Would it be easy for the above proponents to mock and jeer and persecute these because they can’t “see” that what they are doing is ushering in this peaceful, tolerant, and unified new world and kingdom? How could any person justify standing against a peace, tolerance, and unity movement, especially if it is being instituted as a worldwide system? How could it ever be justified that one would stand against this?
I believe none of this to be far-fetched as I see anti-biblical preaching that is against repentance, and not for peace, but appeasement, to the disdain of those who hold to holiness, Biblical authority, and to a kingdom of righteousness, not a kingdom of tolerance.

What, I ask, would you do? Where do you make your stand against this, if you would at all? Where do you make your stand against being forced by societal influences and government to believe some things are good that are clearly evil, and to believe the world’s way, or be counted an enemy of peace, and suffer dire consequences for it?

What would you do if you were being forced to drop your Christian beliefs and accept the above as your mode of conduct and religion?

Are the above to be seen as peaceful, loving folks ushering in Gods Kingdom, or is there something more sinister going on behind the scenes?

- Peace and Grace to His

 

Amen, good message!

Hey, do you think possibly this could come to some head, as in the OP, and we'll be forced to accept, or else, maybe under some world figure/person behind and heading all of this?

Do you think world religions and "the church" (what the world sees as the church) would also try to help facilitate this, thinking they are doing God a service in this endeavor?

- Peace

 

I agree it is difficult to answer as it is hypothetical and not real.

However, I do believe He would give grace at that time to endure.

All of this, I thought is thought provoking discussion. One of my aims in this is to also expose that some believe we will usher in the kingdom to full extent, and that the kingdom is already here anyhow. I think tendencies to buy into that belief will lend themselves to more readily accept mans agenda, and see it as Gods "plan" and extension of His "invisible" reign.

I think we should be very cautious with that altogether. It could be that strong delusion, or part of it.

- Peace

 

Lol! I know what you mean bro.

Denial of Omniscience via Open theism and other avenues could probably see its subjects embrace the theonomist theory.

Look, no offense to reconstructionism, just sayin if they adjusted and went down this road, adapted &c.

Lot's could happen for the sake of "peace" and much compromise of theological stances could take place for "the cause. "

- Peace

 

I look forward to hearing from you concerning Reconstructionism.

- Peace

 

You make a great point above, and this is also my belief. All God, and all assurance comes from Him choosing us.

I also believe these things could happen in our liftime, I believe other alleged antichrists were only due to "the spirit of antichrist" already being here, but THE will arise.

Religions that buy into invisible reign, "all is fulfilled" accept the "delivering up" IMO will be more readily deceived by a world effort for peace and unity, aligning such as "ushering in" God's Kingdom.

There were also what we call "types" of Christ, and Satan counterfiets this also.

- Peace

 

By forced, I mean making a decision between two things; Believe, accept or else.

Forced to make a decision. To many, that will have already been made.

Get past that and then we can dialogue. I am not perfect in my presentations of this, just for thought provocation and I believe our world heading that way as I've described.

- Peace

 

Which cannot happen in "this world" and I agree with you, as this is our desire, as per the Sermon on the Mount, Matthew 5-7, hungering for righteousness &c.

 

I can see some value in holding to that attitude.

 

Will Christianity Be Out-lawed?

This is more effort to oust God and Christianity from the world.

...all the while Muslims are construed as peace loving good folks. ANd liberal theology is attempting to eradicate God and replace Him with an anti-biblical love concept.

It will only continue to grow worst. Christians will not usher in a Kingdom, this is one reason I reject the ideologies of any theological stance, as they see within them Christians eclipsing the world with a theocratic rule.

Looks like the exact opposite is happening.

Matthew 24:30 will commence the change, not us, and it didn't already happen in 70 A.D. no matter what Flavius Josephus said.
