>>16918814this message is good for those under the domination of sin. Jesus Christ is the inly way to freedom, life and peace. And the fruit of relationship with Jesus is the only treasure that remains in eternity. And Jesus does give us lasting joy and hope and patience to endure this life, resting (truly resting) in His victory won by His body broken and blood shed on the cross. Anons who are outside Christ, you are welcome to join.
BUT!
for Christian-anons. (and everyone else) the Lord Christ is not a personal genie or ticket to the easy-street. We are running "a marathon in a war."
>we only suffer now, because we reject his wisdomwhat sort of heresy is this???
Blessed are those who are COUNTED WORTHY to suffer for the gospel of Christ Jesus. And they are blessed because those tribulations free a person for trifling sins that easy snare the comfortable.
I like comfort and I like being liked. But to suffer now for the gospel message and for living out faith in the Lord Jesus is an honor.
