John 15:20
“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 keep yours also.’”
Christians argue about the lateness of the hour regarding the prophetic calendar, but the church can no longer dispute the unprecedented hostility toward truth.
Now is the time to stand strong and confront the cancel culture crowd flexing its muscles. Patriotic symbols are in their crosshairs. They’ve deemed Dr. Seuss controversial and classics inappropriate. Will it be long before your Bible is banned because they find it offensive?
Bullies love to prey on the weak. As a kid, I learned that the best way to deal with a playground bully was to let him know he didn’t intimidate me. It often meant a fight, but I got left alone whenever I took the initiative and refused to back down.
Jesus’ parting words directed His disciples to go into all the world, and 2,000 years later, His commission remains. He calls us to step into the public arena, knowing we’re guaranteed the same hostility Jesus received. But don’t let that stop you. The gospel of Jesus Christ is what this culture needs. Their claims of being “woke” are unfounded. The truth is that they are spiritually comatose and in need of awakening to the peril bearing down on them.
We are at a pivotal point. I urge you to champion the Word of God. Put away the distractions competing for your time and attention. Strengthen yourself in the Bible like never before.
It is time to live fearlessly. Walk and do and speak like you’re confident that you’re going to Heaven—because you are!
Awaiting His Return,
