The Real Spiritual Life

Matt. 5:1-10

Pew Bible Pg. 786

 

 

 

I.  In God’s master plan, persecution is a time of blessing.

 

II.  We need to expect tough times, but make sure they are for the right reasons.

 

III.  True persecution is our spiritual passport.

 

Do I expect and embrace or resist and run from persecution?

 

Have I truly to decided to follow Jesus. . .all the way? 

 

If not, what is holding me back?
