How does a Christian live their life?

I've been watching the news, as I am sure you have. There is no question in my mind that the world is becoming a darker place.
I often wonder what it was like being in the time of Jesus. Near the end of His life there was so much confusion, betrayal, and hatred. Not just for Jesus but all the people that loved and worshiped Him. In the end, there was only 120 left of the thousands that followed Him. All huddled in the upper room: no doubt terrified and not knowing who to trust.
Do you ever wonder if a time like that will come for Christians in this present time? Feeling alone and not knowing who to trust? Perhaps, even civil rights taken away?
Sounds outrageous doesn't it?
So.....
How did His message survive with so many false witnesses against Him?

Seems to me that 120 was a core group of very strong Christians. This group supported the multitudes that came in after the crucifixion on Jesus. Did you ever wonder how a group of people that were once so afraid suddenly could suddenly so such a boldness in Him?

Something made them so confident they were not ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. In the midst of persecution they prevailed.
What would it be like to live without fear because of Christ? To live such a pure life as a Christian that if someone spoke badly of you, no one would believe it.......including you.
