Stephen and being a Believer!
The traditional image of the Christian Church is of it being easy, like a bed of roses?
But to be a born-again believer is only for the tough and its great to know that God chooses us for His service!
Weak things are strength, while those who appear to be strong are really the weaklings!
Stephen was a man who spoke the truth to a libertine world of his day and they could not cope with him so they did the same as with Jesus a year earlier.
So they set him up and had him stoned to death, but he was tougher because he forgave them and asked God that this not be held against them!
Acts 7:51-60, 2 Corinthians 12:10, Hebrews 4:12.
