After reading all of this we hope and pray that you too will respond properly to persecution and not forget all of these benefits. If we are not being persecuted and suffering maybe we are not doing it right. The scriptures say more about persecution and suffering than about praying, reading your bible, and going to church combined. Lord, may we all be ready to live and to die for you.
