So the self-searching question is this: have you been persecuted for your faith lately?
Soli Deo Gloria
Pastor Andrew Zoschke
“…everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted…” These are Paul’s words in his second epistle to Timothy, and they are striking. They are striking because of the marriage of an unwanted, negative result to a good, positive lifestyle. Is this the message we see in today’s mass media Christianity? How would the average pastor today complete the phrase “everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will…”? But Paul is not concerned with people’s opinions of himself or his message, his singular concern is the truth. And what he had seen in his own experience and what the Holy Spirit moved him to write was that every active believer without exception can expect persecution. In fact in the next verse he says that it will only get worse: “…while evil men and impostors will go from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived.”
So the self-searching question is this: have you been persecuted for your faith lately? Soli Deo Gloria Pastor Andrew Zoschke

Faith is an important thing that is why we should always give importance to it. It would be a great thing to always look after your faith and have yourself checked if you still have a strong one. God will always give us problems as part of molding us that is why you should never lose the faith. God is testing you if you can hold on or not. Prove to Him that your faith is bigger than your doubts!
