Persecuted but Not Defeated

in #steemchurch5 years ago

Have they ever defamed you? Have they smashed your name and reputation using lies? Have your friends turned their backs on you?...

Well, that is part of the sufferings that we Christians have to go through as we live.

Both Jesus Christ and the Apostles, and servants of God had to face such hard and cruel moments in which even his life was in danger and many ended up being killed for the cause of Christ.

At this time it is the same, in fact in Philippians 1: 29-30 we are taught the following: “Because it is granted to you because of Christ, not only that you believe in him, but also that you suffer for him, having the same conflict that you have seen in me, and now you hear what is in me. ”

Suffering as Christians is part of our life as Children of God. Let us cry for the almighty God, the Father of consolation to comfort us in the midst of those moments and we can continue to fight the Good Battle of Faith.

"Blessed will you be when for my cause people insult you, persecute you and raise all kinds of slander against you. Rejoice and be filled with joy, for a great reward awaits you in heaven. So you also persecuted the prophets who preceded you you. "Matthew 5: 11-12 NIV

Suffering as Christians is part of our life as Sons of God but God advised us to trust because He has defeated the world.
