persecution

A regular article written by Phillip Jensen in his role as Dean of Sydney at St Andrew's Cathedral.

Both pastors profess to lead Bible believing churches. Both have come into conflict with Islam. Both have been criticised by their own governments.

Have you ever felt powerless?  Have you ever felt weak in the presence of others?  Do you feel overwhelmed by the non-Christian world around you?  Do you feel that your testimony to Christ is too weak and feeble to mention and that the criticisms of Christianity are too loud, vocal and confident to withstand?  Are you afraid that by speaking up for Christ you will lose your job or your friends or the respect of your neighbours or family?
