Matthew 10:32

Verse 32

32. Whosoever Whether of yourselves who preach, or of those who hear your preaching. Shall confess me Shall acknowledge in the face of persecution that I am his Lord and Master. Him will I confess It requires courage and truthfulness to confess one amid enemies and despisers, however glorious he may be. So it requires constancy and truthfulness to confess an unworthy and humble creature before a company of grand and glorious persons. The former courage is displayed toward Christ by the Christian in this world. In recompense, Christ will display the latter constancy and truth in the day of final judgment.
