Christ Suffered For Us
But it was our pain he took, and our diseases were put on him: while to us he seemed as one diseased, on whom God’s punishment had come. But it was for our sins he was wounded, and for our evil doings he was crushed: he took the punishment by which we have peace, and by his wounds we are made well (Isa 53:4-5 BBE). Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory? (Luk 24:26 BBE). “And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name” (Phi 2:8-9 BBE).
For anyone who is going through the trials and sufferings of these last days, I want to encourage you further in the name of Jesus from 2 Cor 4:17. It says: “For our present trouble, which is only for a short time, is working out for us a much greater weight of glory;” (BBE). Seeing what Christ has done for us, let us agree with Rom 8:18 which says, “I am of the opinion that there is no comparison between the pain of this present time and the glory which we will see in the future”. (BBE). Let us give thanks to God for sending His Son Jesus who gave His life for our sins. Glory to God.
Be encouraged to hold fast, in Jesus’ name. Amen.
