“The One Who Endures To The End
Will Be Saved”
“See, I am sending you out
like sheep into the midst of wolves; so be wise as serpents and innocent as
doves. Beware of them for they will hand you over to councils and flog you in
their synagogues; and you will be dragged before governors and kings because of
me, as a testimony to them and the Gentiles. When they hand you over, do not
worry about how you are to speak or what you are to say; for what you are to
say will be given to you at that time; for it is not you who speak, but the
Spirit of your Father speaking through you. Brother will betray brother to
death, and a father his child, and children will rise against parents and have
them put to death; and you will be hated by all because of my name. But the one
who endures to the end will be saved.”
Matthew
10:16-22
We are all insatiably and
incurably religious, believe it or not. More wars have been fought about
religion than for any other reason. We love God, though we may try to keep Him
away. Use anything at your disposal to awaken that love in others, whether
through humor, kindness, or whatever other means might get through to those
around you.
As
the “salt of the earth,”
Christians
make others thirsty for the Water of Life.
