2 | CHRISTIAN SUFFERING | Heb 5:8 | flinkywood | 120400 | ||
To suffer is both unavoidable and central to our growth as Christians. Our lord learned obedience through suffering (Heb 5:8) and it was through His redemptive, suffering sacrifice that we both live and walk (1 John 2:6). If we endure suffering in faith, we shall not be disappointed (Romans 5:1-5). Indeed, it is, according to Paul, through suffering that we are made like Christ(Romans 8:17), by the help of the Holy Spirit (Rom 8:26). This is a hard teaching, but it is intrinsic to the Christian life. Thanks for your good question. Colin |

You suffer because God loves you. Because you should walk as Jesus, 1Pet 2:21 Col 2:6. Because the world hates Christians. Always remember Eternal Salvation is far better than all suffering combined. | ||||||
