Back to GraceStanding Fast in Our Faith
The Pilgrim’s Progress, Chapters 7-8, and Selected Scripture Passages
Stand fast when your faith sets you apart as different.
John 17:14-19, Matthew 5:13-16
We are different in our origin, desires, appearance, and deeds. This gives God glory, even though it may repel most people.
Stand fast when faith leads to unjust persecution.
Matthew 5:11-12, 2 Corinthians 5:9, Joshua 1:7-8
God’s Word is our most powerful weapon. We must speak truth when asked. This requires our hope to be fixed on eternal things because our journey lasts a lifetime. Faith regulates our wants.
