Topic:
Christ's Suffering And Your Sacrifice
Do you suppose Jesus wanted to suffer and die upon the cross? Do you
suppose Jesus wanted to suffer, be tempted, and nearly die in the desert
after forty days? Do you suppose the early church martyrs and many of
the martyrs since then wanted to pay the price of suffering and death?
How much of a price are you willing to pay for Christ?
We live in an age of luxury. We live in an age encouraging, perhaps
even demanding, we NOT sacrifice. Are you willing to go against your
protective human instincts and give your life for Christ? We sit in an
age where, in most places, we are comfortable in our Christian life. We
can sit in heated or air conditioned sanctuaries. We can sit on padded
pews. Most of us need not fear for our life or fear for our safety in
any respect when we worship Christ.
What will you do when being a Christian is a threat to your life?
