Colossians 1:24-27
A statement of the Secure Sufferer:Safety is not the first priority of the Saint, neither are happiness, security, or fun.
We are of the courageous people, the overcomes. Our lineage is long and bloody...
Those who part the sea while the enemy attacks, who cross the river while it is in flood, who step out onto the water in the middle of the storm, who are tempted while fasting... Who understand the times and who know what the whole Church ought to do. Who do not camp on any single doctrine, who do not split, divide and criticize. Who love hard and united.
We are those who’s suffering has replaced sentiment and sympathy with the empathy of Christ.
