Ep: 74 Saints, we are at war!


Listen Later

I am coming to you today with a special message. Yes, we will continue with or chapters in the Pricilla’s Book about Battling in the Spiritual Realm.
But the message I’m going to share with you today is to help you understand the importance of the call on our lives to fight in this manner. 
There is coming a time very soon when Christians all around the world will be persecuted for our faith in Jesus. Unlike anything, the western world has seen in all of history. I don’t say this to scare, I say it to prepare. That is the message God has laid in my heart and I pray you’ll listen well and receive the hope found in our Faith in Jesus Christ.
If we are surprised by this suffering we are about to endure if we think that the God that we worship does not use suffering and if any of those ideas make us angry then we're not ready. 
Suffering as a Christian
12 Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery trial when it comes upon you to test you, as though something strange were happening to you. 13 But rejoice insofar as you share Christ's sufferings, that you may also rejoice and be glad when his glory is revealed. 14 If you are insulted for the name of Christ, you are blessed, because the Spirit of glory and of God rests upon you. 15 But let none of you suffer as a murderer or a thief or an evildoer or as a meddler. 16 Yet if anyone suffers as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God in that name. 17 For it is time for judgment to begin at the household of God; and if it begins with us, what will be the outcome for those who do not obey the gospel of God? 18 And
“If the righteous is scarcely saved,
    what will become of the ungodly and the sinner?”
19 Therefore let those who suffer according to God's will entrust their souls to a faithful Creator while doing good.
