October 28th -- Acts 5 COUNTED WORTHY TO SUFFER |
||||||||||||||
THE picture of our Lord's humiliation also inspires courage, for if we are unfashionable and poor, and subject to divers kinds of deprivations on account of our making the ancient Gospel and the ancient hope our hobby, we know that we are only having our turn of the experience that embittered the earthly days of the Captain of our salvation; and to take part in such a fellowship makes us bold. Do we not feel like Peter? "Lord, I am ready to go with Thee unto prison and unto death." Peter failed in the first trial; but afterwards, he went both to prison and to death for Christ's sake, and was of those who "rejoiced that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for His name." ROBERT ROBERTS, Seasons of Comfort, pages 168-169
