Not all heroes wear cloak and sword!!

Dear Community!

The stories that inspire me the most in life are not the Hollywood performances, but the courage that my persecuted Christian family has always shown throughout the world, from remote times to the present.

Thousands of Christians are expelled from their countries by religious radicals, forced to abandon their homes and property they built for a lifetime, and for not giving up their faith, sometimes expelled and demoralized by their own families, are " guests "to themselves from their nations.

Many flee alone to preserve life, others decide to continue in their nation preaching the Gospel, being like strangers in their own land, not being welcomed in it and expanding to death.

You do not need to live near them to perceive what is a priority for them, their decisions reveal their choices, and thus show us what really matters. An overflowing passion, a burning heart, a fire in his soul that do not fear the ardent explosive of his persecutors.

Because they do not desist from loving Jesus, and choose to follow him, they become strangers in the place where they were owners, hungry in the place where they planted the beans, guests in the place where they were owners, with that we can understand that the comfortable place does not It will always be the right place to be.

Does not the Bible say that we are foreigners in this land? Yes, but they have been made to renounce what is rightfully theirs.

A large part of our brothers in the Middle East are housed in camps, most of them have the floor as their bed, eat only once a day, own only the clothes of the body to wear, and even then, they are prosperous. Well, there are riches that can not be bought, an unshakeable faith can not be calculated, trust that is not based on circumstances, of a people that is not afraid of death because it has already died.

Most assuredly, I say to you, that if the grain of wheat does not fall on the earth and it dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit. He who loves his life will lose it; and he who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life. If anyone serves me, follow me; and where I am, there will my servant be also. If anyone serves me, my Father will honor him.
John 12: 24-26

A rich young man one day approached Jesus, and asked: What is necessary to do to inherit eternal life? And after Jesus had quoted the 10 commandments, the young man went back to inquire, all that I have obeyed, what do I lack? Jesus replied: if you want to be perfect, go, sell your goods and give the money to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven.

They, the persecuted, although they take away everything, they are still rich!

True wealth lies in not accumulating treasures in the earth, where moths and rust destroy, and where thieves steal and steal, but they do accumulate treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not They do not steal or steal!

Because where his treasure is there will also be his heart.

Maybe they need our prayers to alleviate their pain and sorrow, but we need them to pray for us to wake us up from our comfort zone and proclaim in the world the truth for which they die.

One of the fundamental reasons why steemchurch came to the block chain, is to spread the love of God and the truth of the word of God.

I have confidence that from here, heroes will come who will go to the nations and proclaim the Justice and Truth of God.

Join in body and soul the crusade for freedom and proclaim the truth of God and what Christian heroes do when their lives are threatened.
