The form "persecution" takes in the USA!

Many Christians have suffered much and even given their lives through-out the last 2,000 years of the Body of Christ [founded by the Apostle Paul & detailed in his 13 letters, Romans thru Philemon];
this outwardly violent "inhumanity to man" still happens in other countries on present-day earth.
But in America [and other so-called "civilized" nations] these last 100 years, subtle persecution takes the form of a thousand pin-pricks, bleeding to a slow soul/body-death......from isolation, exclusion, backbiting-lying gossip, losing or denied employment, forced into homelessness, or other consequences of a loveless, heartless, satan-manipulated population that worships $$$ & materialism!
The results haven't changed much since the persecution of Christ, Paul & other true believers.....just the methods!
I have personally experienced these "new" methods, where God's commands are ignored & open Christian love, acceptance and inclusion are unpracticed!
"Open your homes to strangers" ( especially your brothers and sisters in Christ's "family") goes unfulfilled, where people trust their own fears & paranoia and closed doors & hearts to protect them rather than relying on an omnipresent, omniscient and omnipotent GOD.
Real "Love" is what you do for ALL others that is in their highest or best interest, anytime, anywhere, selflessly {24/7}
The Real Thing applied never fails [1Corinthians 13:7]!!!
