Joan Boney ... apostle/prophet
Phil. 1:29 ... For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on HIM, but also to suffer for HIS sake;
Each
time we hear someone speak a belief contrary to the knowledge we have
in GOD, we suffer. We suffer on behalf of Christ, the Word.
The apostle Paul was appointed to much suffering for the word's sake.
God says, concerning Paul ...
Acts 9 ... he is a chosen vessel unto me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel: 16 For I will shew him how great things he must suffer for my name's sake.
Paul
was highly educated in the theology of the Pharisees. Paul was greatly
respected by the Pharisees. Christ cost Paul everything among these
men. Paul talks about it in the following scripture.
Phil.
3 ... 1 Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same
things to you, to me indeed is not grievous, but for you it is safe.
2
Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision. 3 For
we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in
Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh. 4 Though I might
also have confidence in the flesh. If any other man thinketh that he
hath whereof he might trust in the flesh, I more: 5 Circumcised the
eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, an Hebrew
of the Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee; 6 Concerning zeal,
persecuting the church; touching the righteousness which is in the law,
blameless.
7
But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ. 8 Yea
doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the
knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ,
9 And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of
the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the
righteousness which is of God by faith:
10
That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the
fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death;

Tim. 2 ... 11 It is a faithful saying: For if we be dead with him, we
shall also live with him: 12 If we suffer, we shall also reign with
him: if we deny him, he also will deny us: 13 If we believe not, yet he
abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself.
