Beloved, Do not be Surprised at the Fiery Trial

 

Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery trial when it comes upon you to test you, as though something strange were happening to you.   – 1 Peter 4:12 (ESV)

Blesses is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life, which God has promised to those who love him.  – James 1:12 (ESV)

But rejoice insofar as you share CHrist’s sufferings, that you may also rejoice and be glad when his glory is revealed. If you are insulted for the name of Christ, you are blessed, because the Spirit of glory and of God rests upon you.  – 1 Peter 4:13-14 (ESV)
