Remember Those In Prison And Those Who Are Mistreated

Hebrews 13:3-4 - Remember those who are in prison, as though in prison with them, and those who are mistreated, since you also are in the body. Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the marriage bed be undefiled, for God will judge the… immoral and adulterous.


Hebrews 10:32-33 - But recall the former days when, after you were enlightened, you endured a hard struggle with sufferings, sometimes being publicly exposed to reproach and affliction, and sometimes being partners with those so treated.

1 Corinthians 12:26 - If one member suffers, all suffer together; if one member is honored, all rejoice together.

1 Corinthians 6:9-10

Application:

· Do I suffer loss and persecution unflinchingly? Am I deeply concerned for others?
· In the body of Christ, if one Christian suffers, all the Christians are affected
· People who engage in the practices of 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 are explicitly excluded from God’s kingdom
