Who do you think is the most vicious human enemy of Christians today? I don’t know that I can narrow it down to one person, but maybe several individuals who are quite vocal today.
Have you ever thought about what might happen if God graciously turned their entire worldview around?
God graciously
changed Paul, one of the most vicious and zealous persecutors of Christians in
his day.
I Timothy 1:14-17 14 The grace of our Lord
was poured out on me abundantly, along with the faith and love that are in
Christ Jesus.
15 Here is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance:
Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners—of whom I am the worst. 16 But
for that very reason I was shown mercy so that in me, the worst of
sinners, Christ Jesus might display his immense patience as an example for
those who would believe in him and receive eternal life. 17 Now
to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be
honor and glory for ever and ever. Amen.
You and I can
pray for God to graciously convert those who are persecuting (directly or
indirectly) His followers. Even our enemies aren’t beyond God’s grace!
