Description
A vivid orange leaf stands out against a monochrome background of leaves, with a subtle cross design visible on the right side. The contrast between the colored and grayscale sections creates a striking visual effect, emphasizing the single leaf's unique presence.
Jesus is called the faithful witness, and in Greek this word translates to martyr. We Christians share in the work of Jesus when we join our afflictions to His.
I believe the martyrs in heaven are as numerous as the leaves on the trees, the multitudes in the Book of Revelations 7:9 "After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne, and before the Lamb...."
These days the persecution of Christians has increased dramatically. We are not being sawn in half or used as torches for the garden parties as during Caesar Nero, (yet) but there is a growing number of reports about legal prosecutions, violence, torture, shootings, and those beheaded.
Are you ready to die for your faith?
