Faith

Titus 3:8 "This is a faithful saying, and these things I will that thou affirm constantly, that they which have believed in God might be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable unto men."

Hebrews 10:24 (Whole Chapter) And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works:

James 2:17 (Whole Chapter) Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone.

James 2:26 (Whole Chapter) For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.

I put these up here to show that works and faith in God go together. I hope and pray more Christians show faith and works, and that people see it and know God and Jesus more. Amen- (means)So be it.

Persecuted Christians

Some of the world still persecutes Christians. Indonesia, China, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, India, Columbia, Chiapas, and more tolerate harrasment, abuse, and murder of Christians. Persecution.com has evidence.
Why don't more churches talk about this? Why isn't there more exposure in the "mainstream" media? Why don't we write letters to ambassadors of these countries and put pressure on these countries to stop?
I believe if we started groups of people writing letters to those in prison, sending care packages, and pressuring countries to stop more than we do now, there will be a change. Also, people will realize more that it takes more courage to be a Christian than to not be one, and that the freedoms in this country, especially of religious liberty, is to be protected and cherished.
As for taking action by writing to the people in prison for their faith and sending care packages, I do that. Now for those letters...
