We need to add the Soviet Union and China to the list. Someone I know is from China and just returned from there and told us that Christianity is growing like something she has never seen before. She came back to the US to get her home sold and finish up some business and is moving back to China as she says" To spread the GOOD NEWS- THAT JESUS IS ALIVE AND THAT HE DIED FOR ALL PEOPLE, and that islam is not a religion it is a band of liers, thieves and out for not souls but for blood" I couln't believe how out spoken she is about islam , but she said she , her family and friends back in China feel exactly this way and will speak their mind about the difference between Christianity and islam . Her favorite verse is.....

1 Chronicles 16:8 (Today's New International Version

8 Give praise to the LORD, call on his name;
make known among the nations what he has done.

She knows first hand what islam is all about, her daughter was married to a muslim ( against her wishes) and now can only visit her daughter and unborn grandchild at their grave site.My friend is a true warrior for CHRIST. YES ANNEM CHRISTIANTY IS HERE TO STAY , MANY HAVE TRIED TO DESTROY THE "WORD OF THE TRUE GOD" BUT ALL THOSE THAT HAVE TRIED HAVE FAILED and islam is failing and will never accomplish their goals .GOD IS IN CONTROL and our GOD is not allah , our GOD is the true CREATOR. THE TRUE GOD AND HIS WORD WILL LIVE ON FOREVER AND EVER. GOD DOES BLESS US CHRISTIANS AND HIS BLESSING ARE IMMEASURABLE.

One of my favorite sayings is, "GET RIGHT OR GET LEFT" and only a true believer will believe this quote much less fully understand it . Heres the meaning muslims, 'When CHRIST returns for HIS OWN , HE will take all believers back to HIS FATHER IN HEAVEN and leave all those that deny CHRIST here on earth to face the evil carnage this world has never seen, so when you hear about thousands and thousands of people that have just disappeared all at once, know that what Christians have been saying all along is true, THAT THE GOD WE SERVE IS THE ONLY TRUE GOD.
