Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus SHALL SUFFER PERSECUTION. 2 Timothy 3:12. Persecution is persecution any way you want to cut it. It goes from name calling, to torture and death. Christians have suffered persecution all the way from the Beginning, to now. And the Bible doesn't have different levels of persecution and death. You live, you suffer but for a short time, and you die. NOWHERE in the Bible is there a "Christian" level of persecution, and a "non-Christian" level of persecution. Please read carefully. Christians have suffered persecution for 6,000 years with the highest price of Following Christ being death WITH A PEACE AND JOY THAT CAN'T BE UNDERSTOOD BY THE WORLD, PERIOD. In order for the so called "rapture" before the 7 years of terrible tribulation to work, there has to be a 2 level scale of tribulation. The first and "lower" level of tribulation for Christians to suffer and die throughout all of history, and a "higher" level of greater suffering of tribulation and death reserved for the sinners when all the Christians are gone. I'M SORRY FOLKS, THAT THEOLOGY JUST ISN'T IN THE BIBLE, NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU TRY TO COBBLE TOGETHER A FEW VERSES TO "PROVE" THE BAPTIST RAPTURE. OK, I'll stop yelling, but here's the greatest danger for falling into the Baptist rapture theology, "I don't have to prepare for Battle because Christ is going to come and save me before it gets really bad". LAZINESS. Not being prepared for Battle, not Knowing how to put on the Full Armour of God, not hearing the Leading of the Holy Spirit as He Directs your day to day footsteps, AND WORST OF ALL, ADMITTING TO THE WORLD THAT YOUR GOD CAN'T KEEP YOU IN AND THROUGH ALL SITUATIONS. Go ahead, tell God to His Face RIGHT NOW that He can't keep you alive to the moment He calls you Home!!! Tell Him life is going to get too tough for you and you want to get off. And when you do get to Heaven, tell all the martyrs their God couldn't Save you to, Be Blessed.
