Are you in chains as was Paul? Ephesians 6:19,20

Good morning dear friends! God is good all the time, all the time God is good.  TOO BLESSED TO BE STRESSED!
   Okay, have you thought about the chains that bind you at this time?  When I say chains I am talking about the world, the laws of the world and how so very much goes against the Christian person, the Christian walk.
   The Freedom from Religion group creates havoc and causes law suits against anything Christian.  Why don't they go after the Hindu, Buddhist, Muslim, etc. as well.  Why?  Why is the hatred so great against Christians?
    Simple answer, Christianity is the word of God and satan is fighting God, thinking he can overcome.  The other religions are not threats to satans world.  Let us look at Ephesians 6:19,20 and see if we aren't bound as Paul was, but just in a different fashion.
   Ephesians 6: 19 And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel,
20 For which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.
    Please READ THESE WORDS---Paul is undiscouraged and undefeated.  What did Paul pray for here? He did not pray the chains be removed----he prayed he would continue to speak fearlessly for Christ-- even though he is in chains.  Do you ask God to help you speak fearlessly for Christ in all circumstances?
    Paul asks that he speak boldly, SPEAK BOLDLY, about the gospel, the Word of God.  Do you ask this? To be silent and not speak up is to agree!  We must speak up boldly.  Paul is in prison, in chains. You,  I, we are in chains--but our chains are the laws and social attitudes of the land.  Will you speak up boldly for Christ? Or, will you be silent and go with the world?  The choice is yours.  
   Is the world spinning out of control?  I would say to us, yes, but we know God is in control.  In California the legislature just passed a law where transgender students may go to the restroom they identify with and participate in the sport of which their transgender identifies with.  Huh?  This means that if a male identifies with his feminine side and wants to play on the girls team he may do so. And it is vice versa for the girls.  This is a law, you can look it up.  Does this make sense to you?  Come on Jesus!  It is time!  Love you all.  
In Christ's Love and Grace
Johnny
