Bible Answer: # Luke 10:19 I have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you. Each one of the apostles was murdered except John who was put on the island of patmos for his testimony of Jesus. Approximately 100 years after Christ was crucified their were less than 100 churches. Now they are to numerous to count. Death will not be victorieous over those whom have put thier trust in Jesus. We too, will have a resurrection at the end of God's appointed time. John 5:26-28 26For as the Father has life in himself, so he has granted the Son to have life in himself. 27And he has given him authority to judge because he is the Son of man. Hebrews 12:2 Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Jesus agonized over the crucifixion and its agony asking and begging for this to pass but subjecting himself to God's will. Harm in this world occurs, sin has touched all of us. The patriachs as well. Faith believes God will bring about a new world and a judgement for a world racked with sin and its effects. Searching his words for comfort and encouragement for this world and prayer to overcome our own wickedness and shortcomings, we will in this world always need to grow spiritually. We always need the law to avert pride which was the sin of Babel who thought they could do it themselves (just like us) and the gospel to comfort us that Jesus is and will be the only one sinless. But our belief in him is our justification. |
