    Persecution is not a sign of defeat but a confirmation that we are on the right path.

The gospel is unstoppable, and no amount of persecution can hinder God’s plan.

    PERSECUTION AND EVANGELISM By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Matthew 5:11-12 "Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
