    Contributed by Duane Wente on Feb 14, 2026
     | 12 views

    When faithfulness becomes costly, Jesus reminds His church that suffering does not have the final word. He knows our affliction, limits the enemy’s power, and calls us to stand firm in His victory — because those who remain faithful will share in His life beyond death.

    The sermon urges us to personally confess Jesus as the Christ, surrendering all to Him, and finding true life and identity in wholehearted allegiance to Him.

    There are questions that settle the soul. They steady the heart in a world of headlines and hurry. One question rises above the noise like a bell in a storm.
