This is predicted in the end times. Do you think you could let them do that or do you think you would be too afraid to die?

Since Jesus says that he will deny you before God if you deny him on Earth, I'd take one for the team. I know people will say I'm lying because if I were in that position, I'd say or do anything to save my life but those who would say that don't understand the love I have for Jesus and my willingness to sacrifice my life for him. No, I would not renounce him. Life is short but eternity is forever.

In the tribulation period, those who have been left behind will have a decision to make. Either accept the mark of the antichrist which is pledging yourself to him, or die. That death will be caused by beheading. Some will hide and escape and make it through this time until the return of Jesus (His thousand year reign).
I won't be here to face that. But, if I were, I would let them take my head! (There will be people who accept Jesus as Savior and will be saved during that time. ) It would be instant Heaven. The alternative would be hell.

This is the choice many martyrs made. I would be afraid to die, but I also fear a life without Christ. I would pray God would give me the strength to do what is right.
I remember the girl shot in the Columbine shooting. The killer told those who believed in Jesus to stand, and she was the only one who stood up for her faith. Her life ended that day, but her legacy will survive longer than that of her peers.
I thank God that, unlike St. Agnes and others, I do not have to make this choice. I'm grateful that I can profess my faith without fear of the consequences. I can't say with certainty what decision I would make, but if I had to make the choice, I pray I would find the courage to fight for my faith. Thank God that I don't have to make this choice.

I want to be the guy with the Axe...where do I sign up for that job. I can start tomorrow. Although it would be more fun to start from the other end and keep asking with each missing part...I'll even supply my own smelling salts in case you morons pass out from the pain.
Also do I get to play soccer with the heads cause that would be a really cool bonus.

People in the olden days did it. They became Martyrs for the sake of Jesus. If an opportunity presents itself now, I would gladly take it because, as Paul said, for me to live is Christ, to die is gain. Its a blessed privilege to become a martyr for the sake of Jesus.

You know, this sounds an awful lot like a primer on being a terrorist. You do realize that the hijackers on 9-11 were told that they were doing this for god. If they refused, they refused god.
