Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
Matthew 5:10-12
I have never been persecuted because of righteousness or for my love of Jesus. Matthew 5:10 is not written about me…at least thus far in my life. The same can probably be said for most people that read this. The Greek word used here is diókó. It means to put to flight, pursue, by implication to persecute. To aggressively chase, like a hunter pursuing a catch. To pursue with all haste, earnestly desiring to overtake.
See, you probably haven’t experienced that. This does not sound like they are chasing you down to simply shove you to the ground or trip you up. This sounds scary and dangerous. I think we get suffering some trials and going through tough times with being persecuted. Matthew 5:11 gets a little more inclusive.
