Knowing Christ brings joy. Knowing Christ in a sinful world may bring pain. Will joy triumph over the pain of persecution, or will persecution rob the Christian of faith and joy? This is the choice many early Christians had to face. For Christians today, the temptations may be different. The letter to the Hebrews presents the beauty of Christ and gives us strength not to forsake Jesus. Teaching Index: 6
