3 " All who want to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted” (2 Tim 3:12). So if a believer experiences no form of persecution, it may mean that he or she doesn’t have a faith worth persecuting. Don’t be a secret agent Christian: go public with your trust in Christ. "

4 " 12:2 Notice that we aren’t conforming or transforming our minds. Someone else is. When God has all of us, and when the world has none of us, God does the work of renewing our confused minds. He brings our thoughts in line with his own so that we think God’s thoughts after him (see 1 Cor 2:16). God has a goal in this. Renewal allows him to merge his thoughts with ours so that he can bring his plans into our lives. He calls it the good, pleasing, and perfect will of God. God has a purpose and a plan for each of our lives—one that finds us when we are fully surrendered. "
