The most encouraging message you don’t want to hear
Persecution of Christians TODAY worst in history
If you are not a threat, the enemy takes no notice of you
Engage in your faith and the enemy takes notice and you will face opposition
Engage in your faith and the enemy takes notice and you will face opposition
If facing trials because of your faith it means you are in the game/battle
We make decisions in order to take the path of least resistance
Pursue comfort
Avoid Opposition

Empty

But these trials will make you partners with Christ.
Do what is right and trust God with the results
