In my own life I have lost good friends, or those I thought were good friends, because I warned them of what God says in His Word, but I take great comfort In the disciples who were able to go away rejoicing for the Kingdom’s sake. I also take comfort in the words of the apostle Peter who said that it is better to suffer for doing what is right than to suffer for doing what is evil. Even if we are rejected, we should never stop praying for the soul of the one who rejects us, and we must continually live Christ before them.
