Matthew 16 21 23 Peter Tempts Jesus Mar 24 24 

God pre-ordained that the Gospel be established through the Suffering and Sacrifice of 'Jesus the Christ, the Son of the Living God'. A Suffering and Sacrifice that God also preordained for the disciples of Jesus to follow Him into, through the Book of Acts, and still today. The Gospel and the personal suffering of those who live it, unavoidably going hand in hand.
