"Re: Mathman, Job's testing"
Mathman
You are describing my life, and this testing is no way limited to the 7
year tribulation. It is happening to many of us now, Hence our longing
for the Return of our King, and our vindication.
12 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. 13
But rejoice insofar as you share Christ's sufferings, that you may also
rejoice and be glad when his glory is revealed. 14 If you are insulted
for the name of Christ, you are blessed, because the Spirit of glory and
of God rests upon you. 15 But let none of you suffer as a murderer or a
thief or an evildoer or as a meddler. 16 Yet if anyone suffers as a
Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God in that name.
17 For it is time for judgment to begin at the household of God; and if
it begins with us, what will be the outcome for those who do not obey
the gospel of God? 18 And
“If the righteous is scarcely saved,
what will become of the ungodly and the sinner?”
19 Therefore let those who suffer according to God's will entrust their
souls to a faithful Creator while doing good. (1 Peter 4:12-18)
God bless
