Several BTJ supporters have been sharing about the Canadian pastor that was arrested for not shutting down his church.
Some compare it to persecution in China.
Other BTJ supporters argue what has happened to the pastor is not persecution, but is something different entirely.
What's what?
We talk to a pastor in China and ask his opinion.
His answer might ruffle some feathers.

You can't be a true disciple of Jesus Christ and be stingy. As a disciple, you acknowledge that all you have belong to the Lord and He directs how you use His resources.

Matthew 20:25‭-‬28
Jesus, knowing their thoughts, called them to his side and said, “Kings and those with great authority in this world rule oppressively over their subjects, like tyrants.
But this is not your calling. You will lead by a completely different model. The greatest one among you will live as the one who is called to serve others,
because the greatest honor and authority is reserved for the one with the heart of a servant.
For even the Son of Man did not come expecting to be served but to serve and give his life in exchange for the salvation of many.”

Even though our troubles weigh heavily upon us, there is a proper time and procedure to see that burden lifted. (Ecclesiastes 8:2-6)

@Asianking right! 🔥

2 Corinthians 12:9‭-‬10
But he answered me, “My grace is always more than enough for you, and my power finds its full expression through your weakness.” So I will celebrate my weaknesses, for when I’m weak I sense more deeply the mighty power of Christ living in me.
So I’m not defeated by my weakness, but delighted! For when I feel my weakness and endure mistreatment—when I’m surrounded with troubles on every side and face persecution because of my love for Christ — I am made yet stronger. For my weakness becomes a portal to God’s power.

Matthew 19:29‭-‬30
For anyone who has left behind their home and property, leaving family — brothers or sisters, mothers or fathers, or children—for my sake, they will be repaid a hundred times over and will inherit eternal life.
But many who push themselves to be first will find themselves last. And those who are willing to be last will find themselves to be first.”

"You will be hated by everyone because of me, but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved." -Matthew 10:22 ✝😇

Matthew 18:18‭-‬20
“Receive this truth: Whatever you forbid on earth will be considered to be forbidden in heaven, and whatever you release on earth will be considered to be released in heaven.
Again, I give you an eternal truth: If two of you agree to ask God for something in a symphony of prayer, my heavenly Father will do it for you.
For wherever two or three come together in honor of my name, I am right there with them!”

Proverbs 23:6‭-‬9
Be sensible when you dine with a stingy man and don’t eat more than you should.
For as he thinks within himself, so is he. He will grudgingly say, “Go ahead and eat all you want,” but in his heart he resents the fact that he has to pay for your meal.
You’ll be sorry you ate anything at all, and all your compliments will be wasted.
A rebellious fool will despise your wise advice, so don’t even waste your time—save your breath!

Isaiah 63:14
As a herder leads his cattle to find rest in a fertile valley, the Spirit of Yahweh led them into rest. In the same way, you led your people to win for yourself a glorious name!

Don't chase fantasies. Don't be eager to get rich. Instead, work your land and be faithful. Don't show partiality. Do what you promised to do - day by day. (Proverbs 28:19-21)

So let God work his will in you. Yell a loud no to the Devil and watch him scamper. Say a quiet yes to God and he’ll be there in no time. Quit dabbling in sin. Purify your inner life. Quit playing the field. Hit bottom, and cry your eyes out. The fun and games are over. Get serious, really serious. Get down on your knees before the Master; it’s the only way you’ll get on your feet.
James 4:7‭-‬10 MSG
