I do trust Him though He slay me. I believe since His sheep know His voice, when the time comes, there will be a legion of brave souls willing to stand for Him who may not even know they can stand when called on. :-)meemahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09104303592278897991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9044571629293488418.post-74062749539868804162017-05-03T13:55:22.770-04:002017-05-03T13:55:22.770-04:00Brave men and women like yourselves are the remedy...Brave men and women like yourselves are the remedy to conformism.

(5:41) They therefore departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer dishonor for the Name. <br /><br />Tis I who is honored to be counted with you! :-) meemahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09104303592278897991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9044571629293488418.post-16971247341366791912017-04-26T13:01:03.015-04:002017-04-26T13:01:03.015-04:00Yes, Meema, I am quite sure your predictions are c...Yes, Meema, I am quite sure your predictions are correct. The Bible practically guarantees that the followers of Christ will be rejected by the world. In the West we haven't experienced this so much as our brothers elsewhere. But so much is changing, as you say. It is quite easy to imagine persecution just around the bend. And interestingly, in Scripture it is called a privilege. We cannot from these comfortable armchairs imagine it, but one day we will comprehend..."standing firm in one spirit, with one mind striving side by side for the faith of the gospel, and not frightened in anything by your opponents. This is a clear sign to them of their destruction, but of your salvation, and that from God. FOR IT HAS BEEN GRANTED TO YOU THAT FOR THE SAKE OF CHRIST YOU SHOULD NOT ONLY BELIEVE IN HIM BUT ALSO SUFFER FOR HIS SAKE...Phil.1:27-29<br />I'm glad to be in the trenches with you ( : <br />Linda SLindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16682029173527471837noreply@blogger.com
