Are you ready to suffer for the gospel?

 Sermon 

Reverend Nobbington Murambadoro 

Matthew 10:22 

"And you will be hated by all for My name’s sake, but he who perseveres and endures to the end will be saved [from spiritual disease and death in the world to come]."

The Gospel of suffering for the sake of the Kingdom is not pleasant but many servants of GOD are suffering painful hatred, rejection, persecution, etc. In this passage JESUS was forewarning HIS Disciples about the suffering that will happen to HIS followers. They were going to suffer hatred. JESUS was revealing that, they were not going to avoid persecution for HIS Name's sake. But in the face of persecution they were expected to preserve and endure to the end so that they would be saved. 

Persecution of the Gospel is still going on in different dimensions. In other countries we read of such persecution of the Church. Others are suffering persecution from other Brethren because of many various reasons. Some have already quitted in Ministry, some are considering to quit. I can imagine the pain one goes through when suffering persecution but take note of the Word this morning. "..... but he who perseveres and endures to the end will be saved from spiritual disease and death in the world to come." Don't give up, don't quit, keep on persevering. Amen
