Suffering Saints and the Crucified Life

Jul 31, 2022    Dr. Tony Collins

Peter continues to direct his readers to Jesus; they were to consider their own present suffering in light of the sufferings of Christ, “Therefore, since Christ has suffered in the flesh.” Suffering is one of God's most effective tools to bring about our sanctification and progress toward holiness, yet few of us ever truly embrace our pain and suffering. Seldom do we recognize the blessing that pain can be in our life when sent to us by our heavenly Father.
