Not necessarily by the behaviours we demonstrate, though they may well be different. The fundamental difference is seen at the foundational level: we act differently because we have encountered a Lord who is so life changing that we see everything differently. That’s what we learn from the book of Daniel: living holy lives is empowered by a distinct faith in a faithful God, a distinct love from a relational God and a distinct hope in a redeeming God.

If we have a decision that will cause hostility and one that won’t, we all want to choose the one that won’t cause hostility. So why should Christians keep going with their faith if it causes hostility? Why face this unnecessary hostility? In Revelation 14 & 15, God presents two future pictures, one of final judgement and the other of final singing. Listen in as we explore how these pictures encourage us to keep going as Christians in the face of hostility.
