I guess I want to believe that Christians in America have had enough and instead of cowering, they start defending some things.

Want to read something sobering? Read, "Blood on the Altar: The Coming War Between Christian vs. Christian" by Thomas Horn
A brief synopsis:
As the world races toward its momentous end-times encounter between good and evil (known in the Bible as Armageddon), a deepening antagonism is developing worldwide against conservative Christians. According to a 2014 Pew Research Center report, this hostility now includes the United States, which elevated from the lowest category of government restrictions on Christian expressions as of mid-2009 to an advanced category in only the last three years.This trend may point to one of the most overlooked aspects of Bible prophecy a war that ultimately pits born-again believers against religious Christians.
NOW, FOR THE FIRST TIME, IN BLOOD ON THE ALTAR YOU WILL... * Read the Global developments that indicate Antichrist is on Earth and preparing to emerge * Become acquainted with the government report on how true believers will be driven underground * Understand how Religious Christians are set to join Antichrist in persecuting those born-again *
Walk with the authors as they disclose the occult organizations devising psychotronic weapons * Realize what Jesus meant by the Days of Noah and its connection to new genetic horrors * Uncover how the Mark of the Beast will change those who receive it into murderers In Blood on the Altar.

2. Sharon Gilbert’s chapter on Something Wicked This Way Comes will make you think about pulling the plug on your computer and tossing your cell phone in the trash. Truly frightening!

Do I believe everything he says in this book? No, the general premise of "Christians" attacking "Born Again Christians" thinking they are doing God's will I very much do!

I believe people normally turn to God with all their hearts when they are in trouble.

What is your opinion on the parable of the grain of mustard seed? It looks like enormous growth.

I like how JFB described it:
Quote:
and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in the branches thereof — This is added, no doubt, to express the amplitude of the tree. But as this seed has a hot, fiery vigor, gives out its best virtues when bruised, and is grateful to the taste of birds, which are accordingly attracted to its branches both for shelter and food, is it straining the parable, asks Trench, to suppose that, besides the wonderful growth of His kingdom, our Lord selected this seed to illustrate further the shelter, repose and blessedness it is destined to afford to the nations of the world?

I agree & in fact, we grew 30% last year--Woo Hoo!

That being said, not everyone who says they are a Christian--truly are.
Remember the letters to the Seven Church's in Revelation 2 & 3?
Some had actually let Satan infiltrate their congregations.
It blows my mind how many "Evangelical Church's" are accepting the perversion of same sex relations & calling for "open acceptance" rather than a "rebuke!"
A strong delusion is sweeping over the World & it is sobering what is coming down the pike!
Satan, a Devil that hath great wrath for he knows his time is short!

What should a Christian do when being defamed?

Jesus said "turn the other cheek".. in the book of Acts they rejoiced to be counted worthy to suffer for His name... and this scripture says it all...

Romans 12:19-21 "Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath; for it is written, vengance is mine, I will repay saith the Lord, Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him, if he thirst, give him drink; for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good."
