WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS ABOUT:
Taking Risks
+ PHYSICAL RISKS
+ EMOTIONAL RISKS
Everyone who wants
to live a godly life in
Christ Jesus will suffer
persecution. 2 tiMothy 3:12
Dear Corinthian friends!
We have spoken honestly
with you, and our hearts
are open to you. There
is no lack of love on
our part, but you have
withheld your love from
us. I am asking you to
respond as if you were
my own children. Open
your hearts to us!

“Don’t be afraid of those who want to
kill your body; they cannot touch your
soul. Fear only God, who can destroy
both soul and body in hell.”
Matthew 10:28
+ SOCIAL RISKS
Of course, your former friends are
surprised when you no longer plunge into
the flood of wild and destructive things
they do. So they slander you. 1 Peter 4:4
+++
Even my best friend, the one I trusted
completely,
the one who shared my food,
has turned against me. PsalM 41:9
+++
“Students are not greater than their teacher, and
slaves are not greater than their master. Students
are to be like their teacher, and slaves are to be
like their master. And since I, the master of the
household, have been called the prince of demons,
the members of my household will be called by
even worse names!” Matthew 10:24-25
2 Corinthians 6:11-13
+++
We loved you
so much that we
shared with you
not only God’s
Good News but
our own lives, too.
1 thessalonians 2:8
+++
“You have heard the law
that says, ‘Love your
neighbor’ and hate your
enemy. But I say, love
your enemies! Pray for
those who persecute you!
In that way, you will be
acting as true children of
your Father in heaven.
For he gives his sunlight
to both the evil and
the good, and he sends
rain on the just and the
unjust alike.”
Matthew 5:43-45
