Tonight we paid one last visit to Paul and Brutus, his guard. Because Brutus is now a Christ-follower, he will now be shoveling manure. Although he's not looking forward to that demotion, he doesn't mind because he's so glad to know about God's love.From there we visited the Underground Church in the secret cave. As we made our way through the twists and turns into the candlelit cave, we noticed that the entrance was different.
The Christians inside told us that was because the Roman soldiers had discovered the Christ-followers' meeting place. In order to keep meeting, they had to be more secretive. In fact, they said they would no longer be able to meet in that cave.
These Christ-followers knew the risks they faced for sharing God's love, but they also knew those risks were worth it. Aren't we blessed to worship openly without fear of arrest?
