“It should not be this difficult to follow or to stand up for God today!” Should not? Because? It is NOT heaven down here. Standing up for God, for the Lord — this is ALWAYS the road not taken, the higher ground, and the more difficult way.
That’s why they killed the Prophets.
Truth. However, NOT a reason to be silent. We are caled to be separate, unique, different, not ‘of this world’. Our focus is on Jesus and Heaven.
Jesus said,”Be Holy, for I am Holy”. We are to strive to live, behave, ‘walk’ as He would. Of Course we fail at it! But, STRIVE!!
Spread His Good News.... Salvation is available!! God Loves You!!! Call on Jesus name, knowing you are a sinner bound for Hell, repent of sins, be that new creature, aceept Gods Grace. Oh, that more would be not silent.
