Suffering For What Is Right


“For it is better, if God should will it so,  that you should suffer for doing what is right rather than for doing what is wrong.”  1 Peter 3:17

Christians sometimes are arrested and imprisoned for doing the right thing.  It happened in the 1960’s during the Civil Rights movement in the United States.  It is happening today in many countries, around the world, preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ comes at a high price. 

Saeed Abedini is an American, who worked supporting the underground Christian church in Iran, has been in prison for 238 days, because of his courage in preaching the Gospel. 

Please pray for Saeed Abedini and all Christians who are suffering because of their faith that God will give the strength and courage to fight the good fight.
