The Name of Jesus caused demons to tremble – that’s quite a thought! Man however has no problem using His name as a curse word, with no fear attached.

“Soft” persecution continues..not in any hardened communist country, but in the good ol’ USA this time.. It is quite something to see how fast this persecution has sped forward and is being entertained by the law courts in the Western World.

It is all part of the plan of the God, and He has given us a Hope and His Name is Jesus.
