Is God Really Faithful to the Suffering? (1 Peter 4:12-19)
How does a Christian respond to suffering? It’s one of the great questions of the faith, isn’t it? Peter writes to encourage suffering Christians: when we endure suffering we ought not to be surprised, or to count ourselves forsaken, or to be ashamed. The Cross is proof – God remains faithful to us in suffering. Creighton Friedrich, 21 May 2023 (Ascension Sunday)
