Therefore,
those who had been scattered went about preaching the word.
Acts
8:4
The
early church suffered unbelievable persecution, including the stoning of
Stephen the Disciple, beatings and imprisonment. This resulted in Christians running away from
Jerusalem.
Persecution
did not destroy the Church. Persecution helped
build the Church because everywhere that the Christians went they preached the
Gospel of Jesus Christ, Lord, Master and Savior. And, men, women and children believed the
message and were saved.
If
we face persecution for our Christianity, we need to remember that God can use
anything to His glory. For us a little
ridicule is a small price to pay for the salvation of our relatives, friends,
neighbors and co-workers.
Our
mission is to take the Gospel to the world.
Let us do it boldly.
