Romans 8 16 the spirit himself bears witness with our spirit that we are
the children of God and children and heirs heirs of God and fellow heirs
with Christ provided we suffer with him so that we may be glorified with
him I count the sufferings of this present time unworthy to be compared
to the glory that will be revealed it's coming you haven't had it yet
it's coming if you walk with him if you walk with him for the pins 129
for it has been granted to you that for your sake you should not only
believe but suffer it's granted to you it's given to you it's a gift to
you with the big bow that you will suffer second Timothy 1 8 therefore
do not be ashamed of the testimony about our Lord or me his prisoner but
share in suffering for the gospel for the power of God one more X 5 41
they left the presence of the council Peter John they left the presence
of the council rejoicing that they had been counted worthy to be shamed
for the name the purpose of God in creating the universe is to display
the greatness of the glory of his grace supremely in the suffering of
his son that's yesterday today the summons will you join the Sun in
displaying the supreme satisfaction of the glory of grace in joining him
on the Calvary Road of suffering because there's no other way the world
is going to see the supreme glory of Christ today except that we break
free from the Disneyland of America and begin to live lifestyles of
missionary sacrifice that looks to the world like our treasure is in
heaven and not on the earth is the only way the prosperity gospel will
not make anybody praise Jesus it will make people praise prosperity of
course I'll have a Jesus will give me a car who wouldn't want to Jesus
who gives me health a car a fine marriage I'll take your Jesus if the
payoff is right it's not the way you're going to win your campuses
dressing the coolest driving the coolest typing on the coolest it's not
going to get any praise for the suffering Christ he calls you this
service in this conference in this life world in that newspaper world he
calls you to another way
