So, let's sum up:
The topic was violence that Christians do to fellow Christians.
You say "Jesus knew that non-Christians would betray their Christian relatives", and to back that up, you cite the persecution that the USSR did to Christians.
...while ignoring that it wasn't just Christian persecution, that all religions were being repressed.
Rendering it useless as a story to back up Christians being set apart for persecution.
But no! Your point was that all religions were targetted in Soviet Russia.
Rendering it a non-sequitor.
But damn those atheists anyway! It must've been their atheism that caused those power-hungry madmen to target people adhering to anything but the State. Yeah!
What was your point again?
Wrong.
You took a twist of the verse in Matthew 10:21 so as to try to make it look like it was Christian vs Christian violence/betrayal.
I simply went back to the proper understanding of the verse.
