The Continuing Church of God put together this sermon on its ContinuingCOG channel:
End Time Persecutions and the Love of God
We are fast approaching the end of this age. Jesus will be here soon. Prior to His return, there will be a final chastisement on the remaining Christians that belong to the church Jesus built. Why would God allow His children to be chastised? Because God chastises those He loves. If we are not chastised God considered us to be “illegitimate”. What form will this chastisement take? Will it be more than we can bear? What is the Biblical example of the chastisement God may allow to come to His end time children? Might our chastisement by physical, or mental, or both? Will we be able to withstand the chastisement? If so, how? These answers and the answers to other questions are discussed in this sermon.
