Paragon Church

In his defense of Christianity before the Roman Empire in 197 AD, the early church father Tertullian said "We multiply whenever we are mowed down by you; the blood of Christians is seed." Since then that saying has morphed into "the blood of the martyrs is the seed of the church." We must understand that as a follower of Christ we will face opposition even potential martyrdom for the sake of the gospel. The good news is the promise of Jesus is deliverance and eternal life. The end result? "We can be faithful because Christ is faithful." Revelation 2:8-11 and the letter to church at Smyrna.
