Afflictions and Adversities of Saints: Comparatively Light

I only know that in town after town the Holy Spirit warns me that chains and afflictions await me.

Five days later the high priest Ananias came down with some elders and a lawyer named Tertullus, who presented to the governor their case against Paul.

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

For our light and momentary affliction is producing for us an eternal weight of glory that is far beyond comparison.
