Does Restoration Of Roman Colosseum Point Towards A Coming Persecution?

The Colosseum was first completed in 80 AD and the hypogeum constructed under Emperor Domitian. The site was last used in 523 AD and the hypogeum was gradually covered by rubble until being dug out in the 19th century. The labyrinthian system of passageways and chambers were key to the spectacles above ground, whether gladiator fights, hunts with wild African animals, and public executions of Jew and Gentiles Christians who were mercilessly slaughtered there. On this episode of the NTEB Prophecy News Podcast, we are looking at the historical persecution of the followers of Jesus Christ, Jew and Gentile believers called Christians, by the nation of Rome, and how that persecution of Christian reached new heights when Rome created the Roman Catholic Church. In Italy, a $30 million dollar restoration of the Roman Colosseum is nearing completion, and as bible believers, I think it's a fair question to wonder if we can expect to see the return of Christian persecution. After all, Mother Rome brags that she 'never changes', and if that is true, then talking about this today is quite timely indeed.
