							Consider the example of one disciple of Jesus, who 
							counted it an honor to suffer for Christ: 
							 
							 2 
							Corinthians 11:23-30 -- "Are they servants of 
							Christ? (I speak as if insane) I more so; in far 
							more labors, in far more imprisonments, beaten times 
							without number, often in danger of death. Five times 
							I received from the Jews thirty-nine lashes. Three 
							times I was beaten with rods, once I was stoned, 
							three times I was shipwrecked, a night and a day I 
							have spent in the deep. I have been on frequent 
							journeys, in dangers from rivers, dangers from 
							robbers, dangers from my countrymen, dangers from 
							the Gentiles, dangers in the city, dangers in the 
							wilderness, dangers on the sea, dangers among false 
							brethren; I have been in labor and hardship, through 
							many sleepless nights, in hunger and thirst, often 
							without food, in cold and exposure. Apart from such 
							external things, there is the daily pressure upon me 
							of concern for all the churches. Who is weak without 
							my being weak? Who is led into sin without my 
							intense concern? If I have to boast, I will boast of 
							what pertains to my weakness. (NAS)   |
