PREPARE FOR MARTYRDOM

This spake he, signifying by what death he should glorify God. And when he had spoken this, he saith unto him, Follow me – John 21:19

Martyrdom glorifies God. Martyrdom is an essential part of following the Lord Jesus Christ. Just as He died on the Cross, we’re also called to take up our cross and follow His Example. We need to prepare for matyrdom because intense persecution is coming.

Doctrines of devils have seduced the modern Church into a state of self-preservation. The modern Church loves this world as if it’s permanent. It preaches a gospel that makes Christians comfortable in this world instead of preparing them for Eternity.

But the Doctrine of Christ teaches us that this world is passing away. His coming Kingdom which will soon appear and replace it. In this world, men will persecute us to the point of death. But we don’t fear death because when our Lord returns, He’ll raise us from the dead and receive us into His glorious Kingdom. Glory to God!

CONFESSION

I’m prepared not only to live for Christ but also to die for Him. I don’t fear death because my God raises the dead. Just as He raised the Lord Jesus from the dead, He’ll raise me from the dead also and receive me into the Kingdom.
