Asia Minor is modern day Turkey. Turkey is 99+% Muslim.

What happened to the SevenChurches?

Did they lose their Faith in Christ Jesus?

No! They were overrun by Muslims who forced them to convert to Islam or die.

Christianity has not survived by Prayer and Bible reading alone.

The reality is that most generations of Christianity since His ascension have not measured up to Christ's standards and so are incapable of holding off the Enemy through the Power of the Holy Spirit.

Christianity has survived despite this lack of Spiritual Power because Christians fought the Enemy Politically, Culturally and Militarily.

Now, as much as we might want to believe that those past generations of Christians were wrong in fighting the Enemy on a Physical battlefield, the reality is that all of Christianity would have gone the way of the SevenChurches had they not.

History is a great teacher. Principle is primary. But Principle without Courage and Action is merely academic.

For those of you who consider yourself too good of a Christian to get dirty in Politics, Cultural wars and Physical confrontations you aught to be good enough to put the Enemy on the run with the word of your command. Otherwise, you are not good enough to stay out of the fight.

Those who have gotten their hands dirtied and sacrificed themselves for Principle are heroes.
Those who have kept their hands clean and avoided conflict are, well, just plain useless.

Every Christian should fight the Enemy with the tools they have rather than allowing the Enemy to be victorious while they wait for God to intervene.

God will intervene. When He sends Christ Jesus back to Earth it will be total intervention. It will be violent. It will be bloody. It will be ugly. But it will be Righteous.

I firmly believe that the end will come as it is written because Christians failed as Stewards of Christ's Earth.

The EndOfTheAge may not be just now. There is time for us to push the Enemy down and elevate the Gospel of Christ Jesus.

If we do not fight with the tools we have the end of Christianity in America is in sight.
