He is indeed able to save us to the uttermost… Such a precious, powerful and sobering message…Oh May we ever be drawn closer to the true heart of our Lord…May we be a Bride truly made ready….conformed into His image through the fellowship…the partaking of His sufferings…. Thank you again for your faithful service in bringing us these messages… Every blessing in our Lord.
WE have NO clue of His suffering nor have WE suffered FOR HIM OR BECAUSE OF HIM period BUT we will VERY SOON North America will get sifted “Then shall they deliver you up to be AFFLICTED , and shall KILL you: and ye shall be HATED of ALL nations for MY NAMES SAKE, But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.”-JESUS
Except unlike a marathon runner our suffering will look something like this “Then shall they deliver you up to be AFFLICTED, and shall KILL you: and ye shall be HATED of ALL nations for MY NAMES SAKE. And then shall many be OFFENDED , and shall BETRAY one another, and shall HATE one another.” “But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.”- JESUS
Can someone please help me come to terms with "suffering" that I have endured pretty much my entire 47 years on this earth. I played out the rebellious and prodigal son theme of the Bible and out His Mercy and Grace, He saved me in 2018. It going on 6 years and while there has been great progress and miraculous testimony, this idea of suffering hits home for me. I regard my medical decisions to be private and protected by HIPPA laws So many people throw their private medical info around without thinking about evil people using it to profit. All of that said . Am I required to suffer even if certain medications both natural and pharmaceutical can help to ease and reduce the suffering? I suffer regardless, however, certain medications in moderation and never in an abusive manner help me to even function and do my daily Bible study and prayer on top of parental and homestead responsibilities. I certainly am willing to suffer more if that is the cost of entrance into His Kingdom, if necessary. I am constantly praying about it and have not yet been rebuked by The Most High. However I surely do not want to be under and delusion and am seeking the wisdom of any Elders of Jesus Christ who could please shed some light upon my dilemma. God Bless Your Brother in Jesus Christ
It depends i believe… some are brought by the hand of the lord as to train us bring us into maturity but some may be self inflicted also or consequences of past actions,nonetheless take everything to God in prayer if there are medications that can help with certain conditions we shouldn’t refuse them like taking a paracetamol sometimes when there is headache but not deliberately refusing and think God may want us to suffer the pain because He wants us to suffer for His name’s sake.. I not saying for certainty but according to my little understanding of what you have said others may have a different opinion
Let me explain what I saw once. I had a dream where I was taking to Heaven in some private hall area. I looked over and saw Elvis Presley, the singer, standing in front of a large 10'tall painting. Elvis was explaining to me in this life the only friend he ever had was the Lord. He never had a real friend only Jesus. He then said "The Lord's favorite of the 4 Living Creatures is the Ox." I was shown the kings of famous people here arelowly there, and suffering like an ox led to the slaughter, quietly and not mooing all the way to your death, Lamb like was His favorite. The Ox and Lamb, kept time, parump, a pump, pump. Suffering is the only way we can bear witness with His as a sacrifice.
@@bimmathew thank you. I do definitely bring everything to The Most High and do my best to use everything towards preaching The Good News and All praise and glory to His name for His Mercy and Grace. God Bless
How can a Christian share in Christs suffering when they don't actually believe Christ's Kingdom has come? As Americans, its hard to relate to the early Christians because we don't face death for staing our Christians beliefs like they did! We have no clue what it means to believe or affrim that Jesus is Lord! There are reform minded Christian orgs. out there who are being attacked mostly by Christians because, according to John McArthur, Christians cannot and should not expect Christ to heal the land this side of the rapture! Step outside of this (false) eschatological paradigm and you will face the wrath of the futurists! Do not be seen to be "polishing brass on a sinking ship" or you will be attacked by so called mature Christians!
