The Valley of Suffering 4

When we consider the pain and misery of trial, persecution, and even martyrdom (which in our ignorance we might confuse with an angry God), none of it can compare with the eternal pain, suffering, torment, and misery that await the non-Christian (Heb. 10:31)!! And that is Peter's Point here! Looking at eternity and considering the lot of ones truly under the wrath of God, we should never confuse the difficulties we face in this life as the bitter expressions of an angry God!
