In this message, Pastor Seth continues the Beatitudes series by exploring Jesus’ words, “Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness.” He teaches that persecution is not an exception for followers of Christ but an expected result of living a godly life in a world that often resists the truth. Through the example of Stephen in Acts, Pastor Seth shows how persecution frequently meets believers on the road of obedience, reveals what God has developed within them, and tests their commitment to truth and grace. He challenges Christians to resist the temptations of compromise and cruelty, keep their eyes fixed on Jesus during opposition, and trust that God uses suffering to accomplish His purposes. The sermon concludes with the powerful reminder that the gospel is strong enough to transform both the persecuted and the persecutor.Scripture References:Matthew 5:3-12John 16:33Psalm 34:19James 1:2-3Romans 8:28James 1:122 Timothy 3:12Acts 6:8-14Acts 7:51-53Acts 7:55-56Acts 7:57-60
