The Believer's Longsuffering

Longsuffering is a grace we are told here. Like the other graces which we are studying in this verse, it is something which comes to us by the working of the Holy Spirit in our heart and mind, and we pray to be filled with this grace, and as we pray for the wisdom to exercise this grace. 1st of all, tonight, I want to attempt to define the words longsuffering and patience. 2nd – I want to show you that longsuffering is a grace which is built up by God into a character quality in the life of the Christian.
