Steve’s sermon continues a series on the inconvenient truths of Jesus Christ.  The first inconvenient truth was that God is not mocked.  The second inconvenient truth was that God is sovereign.  The third inconvenient truth was that God does not change and the fourth inconvenient truth was that God’s Word does not change. The fifth inconvenient truth was that we, Christians, are a minority and set apart  . The sixth inconvenient truth was that man is born lost and separated from God and totally incapable of doing anything that is pleasing to God or righteous.  The seventh inconvenient truth was that we need a savior and Christ is the only one that fits the bill.  Today’s sermon will look at the eighth inconvenient truth which is following Jesus Christ guarantees suffering and persecution.  The ninth inconvenient truth which is those who curse Israel are going to feel the wrath of God.
