Sufferings

I consider that our present sufferings are not comparable to the glory that will be revealed in us.

For just as the sufferings of Christ overflow to us, so also through Christ our comfort overflows.

And after you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to His eternal glory in Christ, will Himself restore you, secure you, strengthen you, and establish you.

Consider it pure joy, my brothers, when you encounter trials of many kinds, …

…so also Christ was offered once to bear the sins of many; and He will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who eagerly await Him.
