—Matthew 24:9-14
by: Jeff Hazen.
It is easy to follow Jesus when it's the popular thing to do. It's not easy to do the same when you see many people leaving the faith, being killed for their faith, or wicked men taking charge. It is this kind of world that must come and Christians must endure through it before Christ will return and the end will come.
The promise is the same; "He who stands firm to the end will be saved" (v. 13, NIV). Don't give up hope. The glory to come far outweighs the suffering we must endure until then.
