True Pentecost means the dying out to the self-life, carnal ambition, pride... It means for us to enter into the 'fellowship of His sufferings,' not simply to have a popular, good time. This much of the church today does not realize. A real Christian means a martyr, unavoidably, in one way or another. Few people are willing to pay the price to become a real Christian, to accept the ostracism, false accusation, and condemnation of others....
