Title: Follow in his steps
Suffering for doing what is good and right is part of the
growing process of the Christian.
We’ve always maintained that Christianity is not a religion;
it is a new way of life that is lived by faith in participation with the life
of the Lord Jesus. A Christian,
therefore, is someone who follows in the steps of Jesus, learns obedience and
is made perfect (refined to the point where his faith is proven genuine) through
suffering.
This journey leads to glory, and is put into effect by the
Spirit of glory and of God blessing and refreshing us whenever we suffer as
Christians.
