“If your hand or foot causes you to sin, cut it off and cast it from you. It is better for you to enter into life lame or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet, to be cast into the everlasting fire.” –Matthew 18:8
A time is coming when sin will appear to be greatly rewarded and service to God will be greatly persecuted. In some ways, this is already here. But the persecution of those who truly follow Jesus will get much, much worse!
“Remember the word that I said to you: ‘A servant is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted me, they will also persecute you. If they kept my word, they will also keep yours.” – John 15:20
The time that is coming is not like anything we have ever seen in our lifetime. Even in World War II, as much suffering as there was, Faith was praised and doing right was rewarded.
However, the time that is coming will not be like that. Christians will be greatly persecuted and sinners will appear temporarily rewarded.
However, the sinner’s reward IS temporary!
For when our Lord rewards His people, His reward will last for for all eternity.
During these difficult days, we will need to keep our eyes focused on the Lord, and only the Lord, for God will still answer the prayers of His people 🙂
And no matter what happens. No matter how we feel! We need to Keep Praying!
Jesus IS coming 🙂
Prepare, Pray & Be Ready!
