HISTORICAL PERSECUTION OF BELIEVERS – LESSON 4

FOURTH ROMAN PERSECUTION – 161-180 A.D.

 

Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius, a man of stern and severe nature, was well-studied in philosophy and civil government. He was very fierce in his persecution of Christians. He came up with new methods of torture and death that shocked even the pagans who were accustomed to seeing Christians tortured and killed.

 

Some martyrs, with feet already wounded, were forced to walk, or crawl over thorns, nails, and other sharp objects. Some were scourged (whipped) until their veins and tissues were exposed bare. Other excruciating pain tortures were done before they were executed. It did not please Marcus Aurelius just to kill them; they first had to suffer such extreme torture that execution would almost be like an act of mercy.,

 

The story of Polycarp, Bishop of Smyrna, is a remarkable one. When he was arrested, he requested an hour of prayer before being taken away. His prayer was so fervent that his guards repented. Other guards came and took him away to the proconsul who condemned Polycarp to be burned at the stake in the public marketplace.

 

The proconsul urged Polycarp to renounce Christ and go free. His answer was “Eighty-six years have I served Him, and He never once wronged me. How then shall I blaspheme my King who has saved me?” Once at the stake, they only tied him to it instead of nailing him to it in the usual fashion, because Polycarp assured them that he would stand immovable. As the wood was set afire, the flames circled around his body but would not touch him. When the executioner saw that no fire could touch Polycarp, he ordered him to be pierced by a sword. Upon being slain by sword, such a great quantity of blood gushed out that it completely extinguished the fire. Only God could have orchestrated such an event.

 

The famed philosopher and Christian apologist Justin was also scourged and beheaded. Some others were executed for refusing to sacrifice to the pagan image of Jupiter. The catacombs that had been excavated beneath Rome imprisoned some believers and was the repository for the bones of many others. Christian symbols etched on the walls included the fish, the Good Shepherd with a lamb on His shoulder, a ship under sail, harps, anchors, crowns, and vines.

 

Christians often honored martyrs’ bodies with ornaments and with the garlands of flowers and wreaths which symbolized the victor’s crowns given at Roman Olympics. They had run their race and were now victorious.

NO DROUGHT

 

It has been particularly dry in Florida this spring. We need rain. Other parts of the country have been deluged with flooding. These are definitely signs of the times. 

 

When things are dry physically and spiritually, often we become very discouraged and depressed. We wonder what we have done wrong to have the “rain of God” held back. I believe that in most cases we haven’t done anything wrong. It is just the enemy trying to “steal, kill, and destroy” everything that we have. Yet in spite of the hard times, there are promises that we can stand on and be relentless in pressing into them and receive if we meet the conditions.

 

In Psalm 1: 1-4 there is a lesson about drought. It says, “Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.” 

 

This verse shows us that there are three conditions to be blessed. The first is to not to take counsel or advice from those that are ungodly. This literally means to not go to the world to get your answers.

 

The second is to not stand or make allegiance with sinful persons. We cannot stand for sin and stand for God. We make the choice. How do we know what God stands for? The only way to know is to read his word, the Bible. It gives specifics for any life situation if you read and study it.

 

The third is to not sit in the seat of the scornful. This kind of person is always finding fault with everything. They mock the things of God, always full of rebuke and scorn towards those that pursue God. They cause those that hang out with them to become like them. We are to avoid that kind of person.

 

Verse 2 says, “But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.” This literally means that the blessed person is someone that reflects on the Word of God throughout the day, and when they rise up and when they go to sleep. Studying the word is a priority to them. They look at it as if it were food and can’t get enough of it.

 

Then comes the promise if the three conditions are met. Verse 3 it tells us what will happen if they do what it says in verses 1 and 2, “And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.”

 

We see the conditions to receive this blessing. Now it is up to us to adhere to them, so we never are in a “drought” condition. God gives the conditional promise, and we receive them by being obedient.

 

Imagine no drought. Your roots are planted deep in God like a tree by a river, always being nourished.   Imagine everything you grow will bring forth fruit every season of the year. This can be physical fruit, but it is also the fruit of all you put your hand to.  Imagine that all that you do prospers. With these kinds of blessings, we can bless others. These are our promises IF we meet the conditions. If we haven’t met the conditions, it is not to late to repent and start doing them and then expect to be “well-watered” with no drought in your life!

PROPHETIC WORD

 

For I would say unto you in this hour that you must prepare for what is coming on the horizon. I have said it before, and I say it again. Be prepared. It is more than just a word to hear. It is a word to obey, for what is coming on the horizon will cause much fear and terror in the natural. But for those that have prepared themselves spiritually it will not come as a surprise. For the days of darkness are at hand, but have I not said to you to rise and shine for my light is come upon you. Yes, there will be gross darkness, but those that have spent time with me shall shine in the darkness, as Moses’ face shone when he left my presence. The fear of the Lord will be the result of this time spent with me. I would say prepare my children and come into the secret place where I will anoint your head with oil, and I will shod your feet with peace, and I will put the salvation of my son into your mind. There will be much fear in the days ahead, but I would call you to be the one to stand strong and be the one that would say to the enemy, “cease and desist”.  I would call you to put on your armor and fight the fight in the heavenlies against the opposition. There are many lives depending upon your obedience. Now come away and spend time in preparation with me and fear not, for I will uphold you with my word. I will show you the way to go, but you must prepare for the hours ahead that are on the horizon saith the Lord.

PROPHETIC EXHORTATION


Today you can have sweet peace and rest being full of joy because you know that God is with you...And He will go before you. Sure they’re things you can’t see from the place you’re in; But God is even now making those rough places you’ve been walking through smooth; As He so carefully removes everyone and everything from your life that’s tried to keep you back or hold you down. He will then prepare the right people to come your way; For He can and He will cause your paths to cross with only those who’re likeminded and who have your best interest at heart. So by faith, why don’t you go ahead and begin to praise God for arranging and rearranging all things to come together and to work in your favor...Moving you forward into His will for His glory. Now keep the faith and don’t you look back; For your best days are ahead of you...They are not behind you.
