Do you think you will personally witness severe persecution of Christians in this country?

I have heard it said that there is a 3 Stage process to how a moral revolution occurs in a society:
1) What was condemned is now celebrated
2) What was celebrated is now condemned
3) Those refusing to celebrate are condemned
Given the immoral moral revolution taking place in this country at such break neck speed as I’ve not seen anything take off from absolutely nothing before, I do.
2001 was the first recorded gay marriage in Europe, and since then, we’ve gone from complete opposition to it in this country to being embraced as being a basic human right in only 20 years or so, and anyone against it, no matter what their reasoning, but especially if it’s faith based, they are the most vile and mean spirited of human beings alive. That’s how fast this has taken off, and we have people like Jen Psaki claiming that it is those who oppose gay marriage and anti-trans agenda that are the ones tearing this nation apart and sowing division.
Meanwhile, in the various Christian denominations themselves, we have tremendous divisions within main line denominations that are splitting like the Anglicans, and Methodists to name a few, but there are many more wrestling over what God says about all this and being accepted by the world.
I see no reason to believe that it won’t happen, be it scriptural that gives us the assurance it will and America is not insulated from that, or be it the current climate that is turning so fast against Authentic Biblical Christianity that it makes your head spin.
The marginalizing of Bible believing Christians has already begun in this country and I’m afraid it’s only gaining momentum. Soon, the condemnations will turn into acceptance or else, even within Churches and speaking out against it, or denying marrying gay couples or trans people. History paints a pretty bleak outlook after that, but suffice it to say that the German people would never have put up with herding Jews into cattle cars and shortly thereafter the final solution had the Jews first not been marginalized and incriminated as the most vile of creatures, not fit for modern society, and that is exactly how those who hold fast to traditional marriage ordained by God are being marginalized in the MSM, the corporate world, and every facet of life now. We are witnessing the very beginning of it I’m afraid.

It is already happening

It's already happening, so, yes.
Edit: Dammit. Beat me to it.

No... But we will probably have les misérables crying about it...

Already attempted with the gay wedding cake lawsuit.
And I believe the clot shot was the deep state gauging level of resistance to coordinated pressure.

We’re not at the point yet of state sanctioned physical persecution. In many parts of the country though, the faithful are ostracized and condemned as bigots. It’s just a matter of time, though, as is true throughout the course of history. Ive met Christians in other countries who have marks against their lives due to their faith.
We’re witnessing Romans 1 in action: the collapse of a civilization due to a rejection of God.
The good news is, though, God will not abandon his church. The true church grows in adversity, not prosperity.

Wanting to team up with the Muslims and throw gay people off the roof certainly isn't going to give you any favor with the majority of Americans.

I do think that people alive today in the USA will one day witness severe persecution of Catholics and other Christians in the USA.
It's already started, but in 80 years, I think it will reach the level of being "severe".

I do think in my lifetime (I’m 40) a social credit score will be attempted and most likely accepted where as if you don’t confirm you will be rejected from services like banking , dining , IT platforms etc. heck we’re already there in some areas…i.e Amazon and Wells Fargo
I don’t think (praying we don’t) we will see a “final solution” type scenario.
But hey anything is possible I suppose
Jesus never promised us believer anything but the cross if we follow him.
We need to stop looking for absolute justification and paradise in this life…leave that to the unbelievers …look where it has gotten them which is pretty much misery on this earth

The WHO will mandate another vax, likely as early as 2005, and the mandate will be an excuse for all kind of evil. Deja vu all over again, but it will be even worse.
Some of these so called medical professionals truly had a hate for those who refused the vax, I’ve heard the talk. How much more in a couple of years as we drift further from any kink of standards.
Who determines what is right or wrong?

Already has happened to some in this country. Only a matter of time.

Depends on who is defining the persecution.

It’s already happening in the Catholic church of all places. Look at what’s happening to Bishop Strickland in Tyler.
He went out to LA to oppose the tyranny “sisiters” and when he got home to Tyler he had a visitor from the Vatican on pope Francis’ orders.
Strickland is a traditional Catholic and strong bishop. He fundraises like crazy, has 50+ seminarians from his relatively small diocese and RE programs are growing. Yet he gets his hands slapped (at a minimum) for opposing a sacrilegious group.

As a Christian, and it’s easier said than done because obviously here in the U.S. it’s very easy to say we’ll be strong and steadfast in a situation where it’s denounced our faith or die, I just tell myself no matter what happens we’ve read the end of the story and the good guys win at the end.

I wouldn't be upset if it became violent...
Just kidding, Lou Pai and our other FBI lurkers.
But seriously, let's go.

Where in Europe are Christians going through "severe persecution?"
