Real faith in Jesus Christ seems to make people uncomfortable!
There are Christians in the world in prisons, tortured, even killed because of their Christian faith.
For some, standing up for Jesus actually means dying for him! Greater love hath no man than this, (John 15:13) that a man lay down his life for his friends!
Not all of our missions is to be jailed or burned at the stake! At times we have to martyr our way of life, put to death our old selfish ways!
During the 1960s a young group of people dedicated their lives to Jesus Christ through poetry, music, art. They founded a new revival, "The Jesus Movement!' The rest of the world called them "Jesus Freaks." Decades later, a new generation is embracing the same passion for expression!
Satan will attack our families, trying to destroy them. But, by attending church as a family and family prayer our families will be safe and together!
Friends.
Do not be surprised by the painful trials you are suffering. But rejoice when Jesus' glory is revealed. If you are suffering as a Christian, commit to God and continue to have faith in the Lord Jesus Christ!
Try and imagine being in their situation. Death as martyr! Jesus Christ was the ultimate martyr! Knowing the truth that Jesus Christ is mankind's savior, many Christians have been killed! We shouldn't expect to walk with Christ without a fight for our faith!
