  • To follow Jesus is to offer up our lives each day as a living sacrifice in service to God. The Apostle Paul experienced this reality firsthand as he repeatedly endured suffering and persecution in the name of Christ. In this message, Steven Lawson analyzes Paul’s instructions to the Philippian Christians-that they too would be given the opportunity to suffer for the sake of Christ.
    This message is from Dr. Lawson’s 42-part teaching series Rejoice in the Lord. Learn more: www.ligonier.org/learn/series...

    Yes my Jesus suffered
    On this road before
    He has tasted many sorrows
    Tasted many sorrows
    Many pains my Jesus knows
    So just remember when you suffer
    Christ suffered more
    For he has been
    On this road before

    Suffering is thankfully for ("us believers") a
    (wonderful) part of being a Christian !!!
    • Saving Faith requires
    it... Per the Heavenly Farher's design... Be
    Thankful... It is for
    OUR GOOD... 1 Thing
    that matures US and
    draws US "closer" to
    a (Personal Relationship) with Christ.. God's Ways
    are "Higher than Our
    Ways" ... WE become
    (more content) in Our
    physical life... It's a
    test that's for Our Good... And it brings
    "Honor and Glory" to
    Our Lord Jesus Christ...
    • Be Thankful... "😊" ...

    This is a message that not many preachers preach. However I hope they don’t celebrate Christmas.
    You wanna really suffer then quit celebrating Christmas and tell your church congregation to do the same. You’ll suffer and lose half of your church.

People love their Saturnalia /sun and agriculture God worship .hint hint wink wink it's what Christmas today is .maybe do some research .and it's wild how devil and deity worship turns into burning trees in our home and Santa Claus? God help us what does it have to do with Jesus??

    I know someone that had faith for most of her life but lost faith at the loss of her only daughter with a brain tumor. After all relatives, friends and members of her church pleaded to God for healing and there none, she denied the existence of God and became an atheist. No faith left, no beliefs ,no hope only resignation to a meaningless life. Faith can be lost as salvation can be lost. The devil is at work in many ways , giving tragedies, illnesses, pain and temptations to remove the faith of the believers in God.

    The ONLY sin that can keep you from Heaven…
    When Jeffrey Dahmer, the serial killer who murdered and ate his victims, was in jail before he died, he made one decision that sealed his eternity in Heaven.
    Jeffrey believed in the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus. This is the Gospel. It’s a churchy sounding word that just means good news.
    He was saved, sealed, and sanctified, even after all of the sins he’d committed. He’s in Heaven now, which is a hard pill for many to swallow who falsely believe you get to Heaven by being good.
    In fact, the only thing that can keep you from Heaven is dying in your sins without believing in the work of Jesus, who died on a cross to forgive all humanity of sin.
    John 3:36
    “He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.”
    It makes no difference whether you think your sins are too bad. God loves you and sent His son Jesus to die for YOU so you’ll be with Him in Heaven for eternity.
    There is no greater love.

    If your churches do not Practice what first century churches did (acts 4:32-35) then GOD is not dwelling on you because you are not House of HIM.your end will be like synagogues (mix with poor and rich)(James 2:2-9) to be burned forever(psalms 74:8)that is very dangerous for all souls if you preach to people.
