It is common for Christians to complain about persecution, especially at work, in the neighborhood or at school. Worse, many forget what Jesus Christ said through the mouth of the apostle Peter in his letter written in 1 Peter, chapter 4, verse 15: “If any of you suffer, other than as a murderer, thief, criminal, or as one who intrudes on other people's business. ”
Today we live a Gospel of the preaching of ease, where to accept Jesus, for certain Christian denominations, would be absence of struggles. Christ accepted, life turns into a bed of roses. We would enter the world full of facilities without any distress.
If you are on this team you can start changing your concept about legitimate Christianity. If there is no persecution in your life, something is wrong with you. Rest assured that you are out of step with the team of Jesus Christ.
The Lord made it very clear that the servant will be no greater than the master, "if they persecuted Him, they would persecute you also." Unfortunately much of the Christian mimimi does not accept this warning of Christ. Many abandon their faith and plunge back into the mud from which they were once taken.
