Trials

What About Trials,


When asking about trials. Our normal reaction is anger, frustration etc. Afterall we are a stubbern creation of the father in heaven. However what does the B.I.B.L.E. (Basic Instuctions Before Leaving Earth) say when it talks about Trials.

James 1:2-5 (New International Version)

 

Trials and Temptations
 2Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, 3because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. 4Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. 5If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him.





How often do we consider it pur joy, NOT OFTEN ENOUGH RIGHT.  It is our sinful nature to get upset, angery when someone does us wrong. Think of this, How often do we do wrong to Jesus when we Sin. All the time. Does Jesus get mad at us, HUMMMMM NO. What does he do, HE FORGIVES.  In the passage below Jesus is dieing on the cross and he says WHAT. LOOK AT THE PASSAGE BELOW


Luke 23:34 (New International Version)

34Jesus said, "Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing."



That wasn't the end though was it. NO what happened to him next HE HAS RISEN FROM THE DEAD. See the passage below.


Luke 24:1-7 (New International Version)

The Resurrection
 1On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, the women took the spices they had prepared and went to the tomb. 2They found the stone rolled away from the tomb, 3but when they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. 4While they were wondering about this, suddenly two men in clothes that gleamed like lightning stood beside them. 5In their fright the women bowed down with their faces to the ground, but the men said to them, "Why do you look for the living among the dead? 6He is not here; he has risen! Remember how he told you, while he was still with you in Galilee: 7'The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, be crucified and on the third day be raised again.' " Because he was risen frome the dead, those that believe in him are forgiven, PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE. ONCE SAVED ALWAS SAVED.
