Persecution And Perseverance

Some people who believe in God will have to pass the test created by God. I'm talking about persecution.

Look at famous prohets in the Bible, they were all persecuted. Look at Jeremiah, he told the message that God gave hin in full detail yet, almost no one believed him and some even tried to kill Jeremiah. Sometimes in life, doing righteous that God loves come with a test. A test to see if you truly love God with all your heart.

Look at our Lord Jesus. He was persecuted by the Jews because they didn't believe he was the Messiah. Jesus, knowing he will die brutally, still accepted his faith. Jesus knew that if he won't die by cross, the sins of the world would stay. Jesus accepted such horrible and painful death that the prophets foretold.

Persecution is one of the most difficult challenges in life. Sometimes we come to a decision and people try to block that decision we have made to continue forwards on. Knowing this can sometimes be quite devastating. But here is a verse in the Bible that tells about persecution.

In fact, everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ will be persecuted.

2 Timothy 3:12

Every single oerson in the world that wants godly life will be tested to see if they are worthy of eternal life. People who believe in Christ will always be tested. Look at Peter and Paul. They were both persecuted by the Jews.

Persecution is one thing but perseverance in the counter. The reason persecution exists, is to test those with perseverance. If you truly believe in Christ, you will sacrifice everything you have just to serve Him. Do not be afraid of rumors or death so that you will reach eternal life.

To be honest, I'm afraid of rumors. That's why I never even wanted to publish this book in the first place. But God guided me to publish this book. I did it and I don't regret it.

Don't be afraid of losing everything, be afraid when you have lost God. Ask God for perseverance, and it will be given to you.

Don't fear satan, despise him. When you have problems in life, accept them. When you have no one by your side, think of Jesus. It will surely make you think twice of things.

Don't fear persecution, because dying on earth is better than having to partake in the second death. Love God and think more positively. Because He will help you when you are in danger because you try to spread the good news.

Start to spread the good news now even if persecution will sweep you off of your feet. Because God will be there to help you.

Stay safe out there!

Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Matthew 5:10
