Suffering & The Corona Virus

As the Corona Virus begins to devastate countries around the world it is important to understand what God's Word says to us about suffering.

It is quiet clear from the Paul's letter that Christians are called not only to believe in Jesus but we are also called to suffer for Jesus.

Phil 1.29 For to you it has been granted on behalf of Christ, not only to believe in Him, but also to suffer for His sake,

It is sad today that numbers of Churches have turned Christianity into a way of life that was completely unknown in the early Church.

The early Church expected suffering, the early Church expected persecution, the early Church expected troubles.

A normal part of Christian living is suffering but how we react to that suffering is important!

When you look back in Bible history you see that God wanted Israel to turn to Him and they did not! So brought judgement upon the land!

God allows suffering so that Nations and even Christians will think seriously about eternal issues!

The Corona virus is bringing eternal issues into the minds of Christians and non Christians!
