Why should Christians not fear opposition in their faith?

Answered in 1 source

Christians should not fear opposition because their faith is built on Christ, the solid rock that cannot be moved.

In Acts 20:24, Paul states that none of the trials and adversities he faced moved him, showcasing the resilience that comes from a life rooted in Christ. Jesus Himself warned that following Him would invite opposition (John 15:20), yet believers are reminded that their security lies in the finished work of Christ. This assurance allows Christians to face persecution and trials without fear, as their identity and hope are anchored in the promises of God. Believers are encouraged to stand firm in the truth, reflecting on Paul’s unwavering determination as an example of faithfulness amidst challenges. Thus, rather than being deterred by opposition, Christians are called to rely on their spiritual foundation in Christ, who empowers them to persevere.
