“A godly person—one who serves Christ and exhibits purity and integrity in his life—is not necessarily welcomed or admired by those who live differently. They may even react in scorn, or refuse to include a christian in their social gatherings because his very presence is a rebuke to them.”

“The church should not be pampered but rather prepare for, and expect, persecution—for it is Christ’s body on earth.”
