Paul's Farewell to the Ephesian Elders
The Apostle Paul was a giant among the leaders of the early church--a man who, by God’s grace, accomplished great things in the face of great adversity. Yet he was just a man and experienced the same human emotions as you and me. Join Dr. James Boice next time, on The Bible Study Hour as he shares the intimate scene of Paul’s farewell to the leaders of the church at Ephesus.

"Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are you when others revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you." Matthew 5:10-12
The Bible tells us that those who are persecuted are blessed, but that message is certainly contrary to the message the world believes. So how is it that Christians can rejoice in trials? In this booklet, Dr. Boice describes what it means to be persecuted for Christ, tells us how to rejoice in persecutions, and challenges us to stand up and be counted.
