Christians endure judgment by the world, through it they have the opportunity to praise God and witness of his glory. At the end of time God will judge all mankind and decide who is righteous.
Always be ready to give a reason for the hope you have in Jesus. This is Pastor Schneemann's farewell sermon at Scio.
When persecuted, we have not only hope and a call to holy living but also a harmonious family of God we are to love.
