In this message we ask a timely question: How should Christians respond when the world grows hostile? From Acts 1:8, we return to the church’s non-negotiable mission—empowered by the Holy Spirit to bear witness to Jesus Christ to the ends of the earth. Drawing from the early chapters of Acts, we see that persecution doesn’t pause God’s plan—it often propels it. The Spirit equips ordinary believers with boldness, suffering becomes a seedbed for the gospel, and the church is called to “stand in the gap” with trowel and sword: building families, churches, and communities, while wielding the Word of God to demolish lies and point people to salvation in Christ.Whether you’re a Reformed Baptist believer, a seeker exploring Christianity, or someone wanting a biblical worldview on cultural turmoil, this sermon calls us to courageous faith, joyful endurance, and confident hope in the reign of Christ—world without end.If this encouraged you, please SUBSCRIBE, like, and share to help others hear the gospel. Comment below: Where do you sense God calling you to “stand in the gap” this week? Your story may inspire someone’s next step toward Jesus.
