When we read, we fancy we could be martyrs; when we come to act, we cannot bear a provoking word. -More
Acts 15:25-26, It seemed good unto us, being assembled with one accord, to send chosen men unto you with our beloved Barnabas and Paul, Men that have hazarded their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Many people claim to be Christians. They go to church, dress the part, say the right things, and can probably even quote Scripture. They may be a Sunday school teacher, a Deacon, a song leader, pianist, or even a pastor. However, when the rubber meets the road and they have to choose between rejecting Christ or becoming a martyr, they choose to reject Him, making up excuses why they did.
Hey friend, if you won’t come to church for Jesus. If you won’t read His Word. If you won’t tell someone else about what Jesus has done for you, what makes you think you’re saved and you will die for Jesus? Want to prove your love for Him? Want to prove you’re saved and on your way to Heaven? start by telling others about what Jesus means to you. Tell them what He has done for you. It gets real when you start doing what He has said to do! You may even have to die for Jesus! are you ready and willing?
