The price

The price of truly knowing.  So many mock Peter, but they forget that he passed the test of true belief and was eventually martyred for his allegiance to Christ.  I can passively stand for Christ, comfortable in my arm chair, passing judgment on the world’s actions, working out my salvation with trembling.  Or I can go out and make a difference for the Kingdom, bearing Spirit filled fruit to the Glory of God, knowing that even if my life be forfeit, I am heaven bound.  Who are your enemies, are they people who simply don’t like you or are they the dark infested and fallen spirits who oppose God Himself?  The price of being Christian is being paid by our Brothers and Sisters, even now in North Africa, the Middle East and elsewhere, yet we remain idle, in fear, capitulation, ignorance or self-interest.  If we will not fight then we must Pray to Almighty God for intervention.  We are now facing Peter’s moment and the price of truly knowing.  What will history document on our behalf?
