“Lord it’s hard sometimes. If I stand for you in today’s culture I could be ridiculed, possibly even imprisoned for ‘hate speech’. I want to speak out and live my life for you but I worry because the direction things are going I could even be killed if I take a stand!”
The Lord’s answer to me:
“How horrible it is to be falsely accused for standing firm in your faith in this faithless world. How awful to be wrongly imprisoned for actions that testify to your hope beyond this world. Why, if they killed you just imagine how terrible it would be…
You would then have a testimony that speaks louder than any words you could speak or write about. If you lost your life here on this doomed earth you would instead be in Paradise with Me. Is that what you’re worried about?
Look, your own words admit this world is corrupt and unjust. My Words tell of a future not far away where this world will be destroyed for a better one. My Words state that you must be willing to give up the things of this world to attain eternal life with me.
Now go and show where your faith is, don’t give in to this world, and hold fast to my promises.”
"Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” (Matthew 28:19-20)
