The original thread is having loading problems -- database issue according to Firefox. That thread is probably too large, so I'm posting my response to Actors post on this new one.
============================================
"They" in that post alludes to the "they" of Martin Niemöller's poem
Then if you knew this all along, who could the "they", in my response to your said post, possibly be, Einstien?
But that's okay...for "they" (the ungodly of this dark world) will come for Christians because they hate God's people just as much as "they" hate Him.
John 15:18-19
18 "If the world hates you, you know that it has hated Me before it hated you. 19 "If you were of the world, the world would love its own; but because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.
NASB
Persecution is they way God will purge his Church -- separate the wheat from the chaff.
The apostates, heretics and nominal and nominal believers within His church are in for a very rude awakening.
