Source: Menno Simons45 words
"The true Christian can endure all things—persecution, loss, suffering—through Christ who strengthens. This is not strength for worldly success but strength for faithful suffering. Paul wrote this from prison; the 'all things' include chains." — Menno Simons. Anabaptist reading: strength for faithful suffering, not triumphalism.
