62 | Jesus: prophet? | Bible general Archive 3 | mark d seyler | 162466 | ||
Jesus is the Only Begotten Son of God. Those who do not believe will not have eternal life. John 3:16 "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life. John 3:17 "For God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world might be saved through Him. John 3:18 "He who believes in Him is not judged; he who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. |

70 | Suffering and God's providence | Bible general Archive 3 | mark d seyler | 162583 | ||
Hi atdcross, I agree with Tim's note re 1 Peter 4:19. This text specifically says that the suffering mentioned is according to God's will. I will agree with you that the best outcome of a painful experience is achieved when we simply yield ourselves to God, and not when we use it as an opportunity for rebellion against God. What I do not agree with is to discount the circumstance that God allows, or causes, by which we have that opportunity to learn faithfulness. The Bible says that Jesus was made complete through suffering. The wooden table top was made smooth through sanding and polishing. How else will you make the tabletop smooth? How else would Jesus be made complete? It was God's will for Jesus to be made complete and therefore it was God's will for Jesus to suffer. It pleased the Lord to bruise Him. Do not approach this with human logic. And make no mistake: Redemption came by the shedding of blood. By the death of Jesus. Isaiah tells us that "by His scourging we are healed". There was no redemptive quality to His being beaten and mocked, or His beard plucked out. This were the acts of evil men upon the Man Who would not disqualify Himself in spite of the evil attacks upon Him. Dying for us was the greatest act of love ever. There is joy in that. Jesus went to the cross "for the joy set before Him." The apostles "went their way rejoicing" because they had been found worthy to suffer for Jesus' sake. They did not go out saying "hit me". But when the beating came, they were more closely joined to the suffering, death, and resurrection of their Saviour, through a method that cannot be replaced with another. Nothing is like suffering execpt suffering. Pain is not the only effect of suffering. There was a man who spoke at my church a couple of months ago, who had been condemned to death for the sake of Christ in Saudi Arabia. He was imprisoned for 70 days, and tortured brutally every one of those days. They were determined to execute him by that daily torture. He was released due to pressure on the government, from the US, and others. His testinomy was by far the most powerful I have ever heard, and will remain with me. It boiled down to this: With every day that they would destroy even more of his "clay vessel", it was the "treasure within" that was revealed. And that is one purpose of suffering. Corrie Ten Boom, whom I also had the extreme priviledge of hearing her speak, was given this message to give to us all, regarding their suffering at the hands of Nazi Germany: "you must tell them what we have learned here. We must tell them that there is no pit so deep that He is not deeper still. They will listen to us, Corrie, because we have been here." And because of her experiences she had a global impact on this generation. These things are not to be taken lightly. Why does God choose suffering for us? I don't know. I have been blessed to not have had a broken bone, but I know many who have, and they pretty much agree - setting that broken bone can hurt! And we, as a race of people, are broken. That may be the reason. Love in Christ, Mark |

Hi Daniel, The Bible doesn't specifically say, but I anticipate seeing them in heaven. I expect that they didn't forget what they lost, and I am guessing that they would not risk losing that forever. Here's hoping! Love in Christ, Mark |

Hi Atdcross, Eph 1:11 also we have obtained an inheritance, having been predestined according to His purpose who works all things after the counsel of His will, This verse tells us that God works all things after the counsel of His own will. Do you think that all things means all things, including those things that we call suffering? Love in Christ, Mark |
