A New Year Resolve

1 Peter 5:10–11 HCSB

Now the God of all grace, who called you to His eternal glory in Christ Jesus, will personally restore, establish, strengthen, and support you after you have suffered a little. The dominion belongs to Him forever. Amen.

1 Peter 3:13–15 HCSB

And who will harm you if you are deeply committed to what is good? But even if you should suffer for righteousness, you are blessed. Do not fear what they fear or be disturbed, but honor the Messiah as Lord in your hearts. Always be ready to give a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you.

Point: Do not fear what they, the world fear, or be disturbed, by what the world is disturbed by. Be committed to doing good and if you suffer for it, you are blessed.

Pastor Artur Pawlowski of Calgary Street Church was fined $1200 in mid-April for feeding the homeless people of Calgary. The ticket was dropped as Rebel News helped Pastor Artur fight the fine by hiring a lawyer.

Two days ago, Pastor Artur, continuing to feed the homeless, was now been served 12 new tickets, at his home, from not wearing a mask (even though outside) to organizing and outdoors gathering.

All because he is doing the right thing, the good thing,the righteous thing in serving the homeless food to continue living on the streets.

Arm yourself with the resolve to suffer in the flesh for God’s will and glory (1 Peter 4:1-2)

1 Peter 4:1–2 HCSB

Therefore, since Christ suffered in the flesh, equip yourselves also with the same resolve —because the one who suffered in the flesh has finished with sin — in order to live the remaining time in the flesh, no longer for human desires, but for God’s will.
