The earliest Christians had the privilege of bearing the name of Jesus Christ to enemies of the gospel. They were persecuted for their faith, but were unashamed of the gospel. They knew him whom they believed and were persuaded he was able to deliver them from evil. Fast-forward twenty centuries. Spiritual temperatures are again dropping. As nations grow ever more hostile to Christ and his followers, Jesus summons those who bear his name to be unashamed.
In"Unashamed of the Gospe""l," authors Matt Chandler, R. Albert Mohler Jr., John MacArthur, Thabiti Anyabwile, Mark Dever, Kevin DeYoung, J. Ligon Duncan III, John Piper, and David Platt come together for the gospel to encourage Christians with Paul's pastoral plea to Timothy: do not be ashamed about the testimony of our Lord (2 Timothy 1:8).
