One of them is because it's easier. Easier than especially America. I said it to people whom I thought matters so that I know I won't be alone. This only shows that America is, though a Christian influenced nation, but certainly not a Christian nation. <strong>America is a Christian Cult nation<\/strong>. Yet, I always find myself alone in this. Perhaps not anymore, with folks like Shahriq Khan (or the likes of it, since I don't know him well enough).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a<strong> qualitative challenge, not a quantitative one<\/strong>. That is why I can compare USA to the Middle East and any other parts of the world and rate accordingly. This is not about how much guts you've got to evangelize. This is not about how many people you could bring to Christ. This is not about whether you preach the Gospel or not or got orthodoxy nailed down in your head and speech. This is about if you are able to perceive and dare to challenge the cult of Ameristian and the atheistic byproduct of their heresies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, as a side effect, declaring this is also a way to wipe the smirk off the faces of those who do mission works outside of the United States, particularly Americans. <strong>This is not to diminish mission works everywhere else in the world, but to refocus them to reflect on why they do what they do<\/strong>. Nevertheless, many have tried to start with evangelizing in America because they live here, and failed due to the qualitative challenge, but they do not admit their failure, so they moved out to do ministries outside of America to show that they've been \"promoted\" in their ministries in the pagan strange lands. Yet, they would not be able to sustain their work in America either vision (they would have to tolerate Ameristianism) wise or stability (no one would support their radical view should they follow Matthew 11:21) wise.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Matthew 11:21 Woe to you, Chorazin!
