Praise the Lord for making a clear pathway that sets the way apart from the world's. That our suffering is recognized by him and will be used to fulfilling his purpose and not for nothing.
Amen to boldness in a world of compromise. Revelation 11:1-14( The Two Witnesses) Revelation 11:1-6 "11 I was given a reed like a measuring rod's and was told, " Go and measure the temple of God and the altar, and count the worshippers there. 2 But exclude the outer court; do not measure it, because it has been given to the Gentiles. They will trample on the holy city for 42 months. 3 And I will give power to my two witnesses, and they will proohesy for 1,260 days, clothed in sackcloth." 4 These are two olive trees and two lampsstands that stand before the Lord( Jesus😊1st❤)of the earth. 5 If anyone tries to harm them, fire comes from their mouths and devours their enemies. This is how anyone who wants to harm them must die. 6 These men have power to shut up the sky so that it will not rain during the time they are prophesying; and they have power to turn the waters into blood and to strike the earth with every kind of plague as often as they want."( Revelation 11:1-6 Zondervan NIV Study Bible).

I'm sorry but in all honesty, I don't think the world compromises anything when it concerns sinners and mean disrespectfully people. I've been a Christian since September of 2006. And I've seen bad things happen, and I also work in a Deli and there's no compromising with my manager to not work on Sundays. In other words, my manager scheduled me to work on Sunday when I really don't care to work on Sundays because it takes away my fellow ship, my integrity, my good morals. So there's no compromising for Christian believers in the working field nor in the world. ☹️
