Christian persecution is increasing in the USA amid far-left liberals’ push for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
Satan’s first attempt to use politics to persecute Christians in the United States took shape with Madalyn Murray O’Hair, Steven Engel, and Ellery Schempp. They used the U.S. Constitution to declare prayers and reading of the Bible in public schools a violation. By 2021, Democrats’ push for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) intensified attempts to silence anti-Biblical morals that oppose DEI.
Christian persecution and martyrdom worldwide are much worse today than at any time in history, according to an ACN report. A growing number of liberal atheists who are mostly Democrats in the USA no longer hide their hostility towards Christians. Here are examples:
- Prayers are banned in public schools, but Satan School Club is OK.
- The display of the nativity should be removed from public property; it’s unconstitutional.
- Cross memorials in public places should be removed.
- The Bible is banned in classrooms.
- Christian prayer was removed from government invocation.
- Malls like Macy’s call the Christmas tree the “Great Tree.”
- Going to church is non-essential, but abortion clinics are.
- A Dean of Glenbard North High School prevented a substitute teacher from praying with his daughter.
IS IT WRONG TO CRITICIZE THE GOVERNMENT?
2024: Pro-Life activists in danger
Joel Curry, a devout Christian from Saginaw, Michigan, faces up to 11 years in federal prison for participating in a peaceful pro-life protest, charged with felony conspiracy against rights and a FACE Act violation. Curry claims the Biden administration is targeting conservative Christians like himself.
Department of Injustice
“I don’t want to spend 11 years in prison,” he told The Daily Wire. “I can’t fathom spending another week away from my wife and kids.” He criticized the Justice Department as the “department of injustice,” alleging it has weaponized the FACE Act against pro-life activists.

2023: Biden government ignoring Christian persecution
In 2023, the Christians in Nigeria and the Kuki Tribe Association in India sought the help of President Biden over the Nigeria Christian genocide and Kuki genocide. Still, there was no proper response from the government. Pastor Chongloi, a representative of the Kuki Tribe in Manipur, muzzled enough money to come to the United States to seek help, but it fell on deaf ears.
Likewise, the Biden government declined to add Nigeria to the U.S. Department of State’s Countries of Particular Concern list issued in December 2022.

2023: Weaponizing the law
Canada’s Bill C-63 (Online Harms Act)
Bill C-63 seeks to regulate harmful online content in Canada. However, its broad definitions give room to persecute conservative Christians whose religious views are interpreted as hate speech—thus limiting “freedom of speech.” It also seeks to penalize anyone who may inflict “pain and suffering” if they say something against the LGBTQ, which is a lifestyle condemned in the Bible.
Canadian law C-16 (Gender Identity Act)
Canadian law C-16 expands protections for gender identity and expression, such as “gender pronouns,” under the Canadian Human Rights Act. Psychologist Professor Jordan Peterson opposes C-16 because it compels speech by mandating the use of preferred “ideological pronouns,” which he sees as violating free speech rights.
MOST BIZARRE PUNISHMENTS IN THE BIBLE.
2022: Discrimination against Christian schools
Biden Administration
In 2022, the Christian school Ozarks College filed a lawsuit against the Biden administration because it forced them to adopt a policy that makes dorm rooms and shower spaces open to any sex or gender.
The Biden government threatened to punish religious schools, organizations, and churches if they went against the parameters of the Gender Equality Act.
Montana Blaine Amendment
The Montana Blaine Amendment, which barred state aid to religious schools, was founded in 1972. It remained in effect in thirty-seven states until June 2020, when the Supreme Court struck it down.
The state of Montana’s Blaine Amendment, or the “No-Aid” provision, barred state aid to religious schools. It was motivated by bigotry against Catholic immigrants, according to Eric Rassbach. [Separation of church and state]
In 2015, three low-income families whose kids went to Stillwater Christian School filed a lawsuit against the provision and won in 2022. [Carson v. Makin]
2020: Democrat closes churches during pandemic
According to USA Today, left-liberal Democrats want to close churches, promote LGTBQ in schools, raise taxes, and pay for sex reassignment surgery. Other examples of Christian persecution include bills that undermine religious freedom.
During the pandemic, Grace Community Church senior pastor John MacArthur was threatened with imprisonment for gathering for worship. California’s Democrat Governor and Mayor led the crackdown on any gathering, even if unconstitutional.
There is a group of American liberal politicians who are secretly atheists but openly antisemites. They champion a deceptive climate change agenda and promote socialism and a victimhood mentality.
2012: Jack Philips, the “Poster child” of LGBTQ persecution
Christian baker Jack Philips was first sued in 2012 after refusing services to a gay couple. He was sued twice after the courts decided in his favor. 2019, the case was finally dropped after evidence showed “ongoing hostility” toward religious freedom.
Just when you think it’s over, Phillips faced the third lawsuit for refusing to make a “gender transition cake” this time.
The list of LGBTQ bullies grows, and politics is now used to silence Christians. In April 2021, photographer Emilee Carpenter fought liberal New York for its “public accommodation law.” The law makes it illegal to refuse service to anyone—even if her faith and values are compromised.
Carpenter refused to reply to at least seven requests from “same-sex couples.” If she refuses, the law can punish her with fines, jail, and losing her job.
Difficult times ahead, says Apostle Timothy
In 2021, the United Nations tweeted a photo of the “Guardian for International Peace and Security” installed outside the U.N. Headquarters. The sculpture was grandeur.
The problem is that Revelation 13 describes a similar beast in which the dragon (Satan) gave his power and authority to persecute followers of Jesus towards the end times. [Mark of the Beast]
The book of Revelation is a glimpse of what is to come, but the book of 2 Timothy summarizes the kind of millennial persecution happening. It is associated with the powerful political and demonic influence sweeping many countries.
2 Timothy 3-6
“But know this: Difficult times will come in the last days. For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy, unloving, irreconcilable, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, without love for what is good, traitors, reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, holding to the form of godliness but denying its power. Avoid these people!”
