Listen "Response to Persecution"
Episode Synopsis
In a world increasingly challenging to our faith, we're called to embrace our identity as God's chosen people. Drawing from 1 Peter 2:9-10, we're reminded that we are a royal priesthood and a holy nation, set apart for God's purposes. This identity isn't just a label, but a call to action in the face of persecution. As we navigate the 'negative era' of Christianity, where our faith may be viewed unfavorably by society, we're challenged to respond not with hostility, but with the transformative power of Christ's love. Like Rocky in his rematch against Clubber Lang, we're called to approach persecution with skill and strategy, guided by the Holy Spirit rather than our carnal nature. This perspective shift can turn trials into opportunities for witness, allowing us to be living testimonies of God's goodness even in adversity.
