Happy Are the Persecuted
Persecution is not something that we look forward to having to endure. Jesus, however, promised that we would experience persecution in this world. He also said, “Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for the kingdom of heaven is theirs.” Can we really experience happiness in the midst of persecution? How is that possible? Could it be that persecution brings us closer to Jesus and has its own reward? In this sermon, Pastor Derwin explores the answers to these questions.
