Persecution means to be pursued in a hostile manner, unfair treatment based on an individual or group’s religious beliefs.Key Passage: Matthew 5:10-12Jesus’ words remind us that persecution is not just a possibility but a reality for those who follow Him faithfully. The persecution of Jesus, His disciples, Paul, and the early Christians reflects the cost of following Christ in a hostile world. Their suffering and martyrdom became a powerful testimony to their faith and conviction in the truth of the gospel.Persecution in its various forms is a recurring theme in the Bible, affecting believers in different ways. Whether physical, verbal, social, economic, psychological, legal, or spiritual, persecution challenges believers to remain faithful to Christ. We are assured that despite these trials, God is with His people, offering comfort, strength, and ultimately, eternal reward.Led by Stan
