BULLET FOR CHRIST?

While preaching to a 2000-member congregation on a Sunday morning service, a preacher saw two men wearing hooded jackets walk toward the pulpit. When they got to the side of the pastor, both men faced the congregation and brought out sub machine guns from underneath their jackets. With everybody terrified both men announced and i quote "anyone willing to take a bullet for Christ should remain seated". Before they finished talking members of the congregation had started setting on each others head trying to get out, either through the window or door or any available opening. The first people to escape were the choir members, then the group of elders that sat not too far from the preachers podium. After the chaos had ended, there remained only the pastor and about 3 elderly members of the church. The two men then turned to the pastor,removed their hoods and said"now you can begin the service,we have gotten rid of the hypocrites"! And both men left the church.
I do not pray to have my faith tested as such but each day i face much easier tests of my allegiance to Jesus and i goof just because someone does not think it is cool or it is not tush. I will really want to take my stand for Christ regardless of what people think because He still stands for me till the end of time and after wards. what of you?
