1 Peter 2:18-21
What an encouragement to know that Jesus can relate to all of our suffering! There is a suffering that we are called to endure and a suffering that we should escape from, and we will touch on both of those in this episode. If you suffer unfairness or slight mistreatment, we are called to endure that with patience for the sake of the testimony of Christ. But I want to be clear that God is not calling anyone to stay in an abusive situation. If you are suffering abuse, you need to know (1) God is not okay with the wrong that has happened to you, (2) hope is only found in Christ, and (3) you should get out of that situation no matter how hard it is. Find people to help you leave that situation. We will continue to discuss suffering next week and later in chapter 4 of 1 Peter.
