Did you know that Christianity is the most persecuted religion in the world? It is estimated that up to 300 million Christians are being persecuted right now.

The ministry of Release International is to endeavour to provide support for those being persecuted by giving the persecuted a voice; providing them with moral and spiritual encouragement; and where possible, providing them with practical help.

In this challenging message Paul Thomas of Release International reminds us that those who pray for revival, who walk in Jesus’ ways, and who seek to speak what He speaks will get a backlash from the world, we will risk being hated and therefore persecuted just as it first hated and persecuted Him (cf. Jn 15:18).

Are we willing to be persecuted for Christ or do we keep our relationship with Him under wraps so as not to create a reaction? Are we really following Jesus for His glory, or so that we can have a better life?
