苦難的價值—-約翰福音16:33［在世上你們有苦難, 但你們可以放心, 我已經勝了世界.］有些人會在苦難中學到寶貴的價值與功課, 以至于這世界因他而蒙福. 約瑟被兄弟賣為奴僕就是最好的例子. 詩篇105:17-19. 但也有一些人在苦難中就是忍受苦難本身而已. 關鍵在是否認識耶穌, 是否在基督裹. 倘若是, 那麼苦難將不是扣分的, 相反的, 苦難是加分的. 苦難在生命中, 都可以帶出正面的意義與價值. 羅馬書8:28-29［我們曉得萬事都互相效力, 叫愛神的人得益處, 就是按他旨意被召的人. 因為他預先所知道的人, 就預先定下效法他兒子的模樣, 使他兒子在許多弟兄中作長子.］苦難使我們品格被煉淨, 信心變剛強. 彼前1:6-7. 苦難使我們得以真實的經歷神, 更認識神, 并被神成全. 伯42:5, 10. 彼前5:10. 苦難將使我們得著生命的冠冕. 雅1:12. 我們面對苦難要靈巧如蛇, 但對信仰要馴良如鴿. 太10:16.
The value of suffering – John 16:33 [In the world you will have tribulation, but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.] Some people will learn precious values and lessons in suffering, so that the world will be blessed because of them Blessed. Joseph was sold as a slave by his brothers is the best example. Psalm 105:17-19. But there are also some people who endure the suffering itself in suffering. The key is whether they know Jesus and whether they are wrapped up in Christ. If so, Then suffering will not be a deduction, on the contrary, suffering will be a plus. Suffering can bring positive meaning and value in life. Romans 8:28-29 [We know that all things work together for the love of God It is good for those who are called according to his purpose. For whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, so that he would be the firstborn among many brothers.] Suffering refines our character , faith becomes stronger. 1 Peter 1:6-7. Suffering allows us to truly experience God, know God better, and be perfected by God. Job 42:5, 10. 1 Peter 5:10. Suffering will enable us to gain The crown of life. James 1:12. We are to be as wise as serpents in the face of suffering, but as meek as doves in our faith. Matthew 10:16.
