In the way that He gave His for you? Honestly,.. if somebody pointed a gun at me and asked me if I followed Christ I would be truthful then be welcomed into Heaven by Him,.. however to answer the question properly I would have to answer no I'm afraid. A nice and quick painless death is a lot easier to say yes to then a suffering one. However, I guess that's why He's God and I'm not.
I don't know. I hope I would. I have a few thoughts. The first being something I heard from a Baptist Pastor who said something like "You think you're going to die for Christ and you don't even live for him? Start living for him and then we'll talk."
He made a good point I think.
Then theres torture which can beat anyone (except Jesus). Something I read recently was about the leadership of the Templars. When betrayed and tortured by the French authorities they eventually admitted to the accusations. These were ridiculous including not believing in Christ, urinating on a cross, strange rituals in order to join the templars and other things relating to homosexual behaviour. The French King was in debt to the Templars and he decided to get rid of them by forcing these confessions.
Anyway eventually they confessed and they were to be burned at the stake. Before they were killed the leader and others stated: They had been guilty, they said, "not of the crimes imputed to them, but of basely betraying their Order to save their own lives." It was pure and holy; the charges were fictitious and the confessions false.
The execution went ahead: "There de Molay, de Charney, de Gonneville, and de Peraud were slowly burned to death, refusing all offers of pardon for retraction, and bearing their torment with a composure which won for them the reputation of martyrs among the people, who reverently collected their ashes as relics"
So as someone else mentioned Peter, I don't think it always boils down to one moment. Peter denied Christ. The Templars betrayed their order which followed Christ. They repented and turned back to God. Sometimes you have to fail badly in order to grow stronger.
