SERMON BY: Dr. John Waterloo
SERMON TITLE: Prepare for Persecution!
SERMON THEME: The Big Picture: Change, Deception, and then Persecution!
SERMON SERIES: The Gospel by Mark
SERMON VERSES: Mark 13:7-13

We need to…
* Prepare Ourselves for Persecution - we must become stronger, mentally (mind of Christ) and spiritually. We MUST toughen up!  1Peter 2:19-23
* Prepare our Families - evil men will leverage our love and care for our family members against our faith.

Mark 13:7-13 And when ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars, be ye not troubled: for such things must needs be; but the end shall not be yet. 8 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and troubles: these are the beginnings of sorrows. 9 But take heed to yourselves: for they shall deliver you up to councils; and in the synagogues ye shall be beaten: and ye shall be brought before rulers and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them. 10 And the gospel must first be published among all nations. 11 But when they shall lead you, and deliver you up, take no thought beforehand what ye shall speak, neither do ye premeditate: but whatsoever shall be given you in that hour, that speak ye: for it is not ye that speak, but the Holy Ghost. 12 Now the brother shall betray the brother to death, and the father the son; and children shall rise up against their parents, and shall cause them to be put to death. 13 And ye shall be hated of all men for my name’s sake: but he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
