As I'm reading some of the blogs I frequent, I can't help thinking that about the end times, and Jesus coming any day.  Christian martyrs are being buried almost every day.

Christian Students Attacked by Muslim Mob – http://www.persecution.org/2011/03/01/christian-students-attacked-by-muslim-mob-in-ethiopia/.

One thing I noticed was that Islam is the main religion that is behind the killings; Surah 9:5 in action.

There are hundreds of these entries out there.  These are just over the last month or so!  This is an evil out there that is trying in vain to stop the Word of the Lord, and Gospel from being spread:

Persecution – International Church Concern - http://www.persecution.org/
Voice of the Martyrs - http://www.persecution.com/
Christian Unite.com - http://news.christiansunite.com/
Compass Direct News - http://www.compassdirect.org/
Christian Persecution in India - http://www.persecution.in/
Persecution in Sudan - http://www.ryanspencerreed.com/main.html
Persecution Blog - http://www.persecutionblog.com/

I can go on, and on.  I was thinking the other day in church when the pastor was trying to get people to commit their tithes, and hearing the complaining about the new building, I couldn't help thinking that these martyrs are losing their lives because they are Christians; we're complaining because Bill Maher doesn't like Christians, or Richard Dawkins is spreading his new atheist propaganda.

I support these organizations, and I pray.  I can also ask God to keep my aware, and to pray for the families left behind.

The great thing is that these martyrs are there with our Lord, but I do wonder how much longer our Lord is going to wait before He comes back, and evil is done away with.

Come Lord Jesus
