Since the children, as He calls them, are people of flesh and blood, Jesus Himself became like them and shared their human nature. He did this so that through His death He might destroy the devil, who had power over death, and in this way set free those who were slaves all their lives because of their fear of death. Hebrews 2:14-15 (GNT, AMP) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is a short story about a missionary who faced persecution because he preached Christ Jesus, the Son of the living God. He went through trials and tribulations because he professed his faith in Jesus, the Saviour of the world. Be blessed as you read in Jesus' name. Amen.
