The Gospel

Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the GOSPEL which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

Philippians 1:27

Title:  Whatever happens

In life or in death, the Christian should behave himself in a way suitable for someone who has been granted the honor of suffering for the Lord Jesus in defending the gospel (1 Corinthians 15:1-4) in partnership with other believers.

This is not an easy proposition considering the magnitude of the task and the urgency of the times, but those who would be companions with the apostles in their perils and privation in defending and establishing the gospel will be able to rejoice even in the face of great endurance and many forms of danger and opposition outside the church and even from those who call themselves Christians but are of the synagogue of Satan.
