16 You will be betrayed even by parents, brothers and sisters, relatives and friends, and they will put some of you to death. 17Everyone will hate you because of me. 18But not a hair of your head will perish. 19Stand firm, and you will win life.

All signs of the times we are living in. Lucky us. I grew up where parents got respect just because of who they were.

This scripture reminds us that what we are facing is far beyond our control… if that (knowing God warned us these days were coming) can give us any comfort, let it… It's hard to find any comfort some days.

thank you for reminding us of that appropriate chunk of Scripture. It is a massive spiritual battle, hitting us where it hurts the most. Our hope is not in this world or any person in it!

These scripture verses are a good reminder of things foretold and we are experiencing some of those now. So, our God will protect us and it is on Him that we need to focus. Our eternal lives depend on our faith in Him.. God will love and care for us and that is most important.

Great reminder. We battle not against flesh and blood. The battle belongs to The Lord.

I like the verse that says, Stand firm. We will stand firm on our rock, Jesus.
