Persecution is the best fertilizer for the seed of the gospel. It is during times of ease that the church quickly becomes embarrassed by the gospel. The flame that burned so bright during affliction quickly dies to embers. Soon, the hearths of the churches are nothing more than soot-covered, cold and lifeless places.
