Metamorphosis is the process a caterpillar goes through in the cocoon where it enters as a worm and leaves a beautiful butterfly. The Greek work that is the root of this work "metamorphosis" is the word translated "transformed" in Romans 12:2: "And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and Perfect". For Christians who have been transformed and are being persecuted, remember Acts 14:22 where Paul offers advise of strenthening the soul, and for the Christian who stayes the course, finishes the fight, and keeps the faith, his reward will be his name in the Book of Remembrance, because this book is for the overcomer. Malachi 3:16-17 and chapter 4.
