Luke 19:39-40 And some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to him, “Teacher, rebuke your disciples.” He answered, “I tell you, if these were silent, the very stones would cry out.”

The letter to the church in Pergamum in Rev. 2 has some insights into 1: Compromise in the church; 2: Christ's reward for those who stay faithful in the face of persecution and pressure to compromise.

The world wants to crush the microscope of God's Word into their lives, and the Church is His mouthpiece, so the church (you, me, Christians in general) is the target of the world's wrath.

The right response to God's examination of our lives is Psalm 139.

Thanks again, Terry.
