8. The Persecuted

“Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.”

The root word for persecuted is originally derived from the late Latin word persecutor which stands for “pursuer”. The world is going to persecute us but do not be afraid, just remember that what the world does to us, they first did to him. To be persecuted for his sake (the sake of the Gospel and Christ) if you are persecuted and you stand true and tall to your faith, The Lord will reward you.
