Matthew 5:10………Working
Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
More Notes & Applications
Calls for the willingness to endure hardships of every sort, rather than compromise what we know to be right.
This is not saying that you have to be persecuted every moment of the day, that’s not what Jesus is saying. But if you have never faced opposition, if you’ve never faced ostracization, rejection, insults in some form because your a Christian – you may need to reexamine your faith? If your a Christian and you say you’ve never experienced persecution. Maybe it’s because you’ve been living to much like the world. You laugh at its humour, immerse yourself in its entertainment, smile when God is mocked, act as if all religions are the same, you don’t mention sin, hell, or repentance. You draw no moral judgements, take no stand on moral issues – and above all you don’t preach the Gospel to others!’
