In this sermon, Simon Pranaitis explores 1 Peter 2:21 and how Jesus' example of suffering provides a pattern for believers to follow in their trials. Pranaitis explains that just as Jesus endured unjust treatment and hostility without sinning, Christians are called to bear up under suffering while entrusting themselves to God patiently. By studying Jesus' fully human life and example of suffering, believers can find encouragement and guidance for handling life's difficulties in a way that honors God.
Applications
- What are the ways in which you are currently suffering or have suffered in the past?
- How do these sufferings compare to the sufferings that Christ experienced in His life?
- Discuss your sufferings with other believers, and rather than complaining, talk about the ways in which sufferings enhanced your sanctification.
- When you encounter new suffering, immediately pray that God would help you endure like Jesus and follow His example for bearing up righteously.
- Refuse to accuse God of injustice and rather remember that suffering is a sign of His love toward you as sons/daughters.
- Read the Gospels regularly and remind yourself that Jesus lived a fully authentic human life more like your own than you could ever imagine.
