AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Peter 5:5 Likewise, you younger men [of lesser rank and experience], be subject to your elders [seek their counsel]; and all of you, clothe yourselves with humility toward one another [tie on the servant's apron], for GOD IS OPPOSED TO THE PROUD [the disdainful, the presumptuous, and He defeats them], BUT HE GIVES GRACE TO THE HUMBLE. [Prov 3:34] |
Bible Question: i know god loves me and will always forgive me but does god make bad things happen in your life as punishment |
Bible Answer: How about how Jonah got himself into trouble for blowing off God. Look at 1 Peter 5:5 in Amplified version. I think maybe pride is the worst most detestable sin. Look how God moves against it. I think God's love towards us is always active. He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion. Phil 1:6 |
