God Provides and Provides and Provides - Part 2

During the last two weeks we have spoken of the insignificance of the sufferings found in this world compared to the glory which will be revealed to us. Does that mean that there isn’t a concern to be found? Does it mean that we just need to be persecuted to go to Heaven (see verse 17)? Or is Paul establishing our need for the gospel to be centered solely upon Jesus? If God’s provision is in Jesus, then our sufferings, our fears, and even our sanctification is all secondary to HIS Work in salvation. We are either saved by grace or by works…thank God—it really is all about Him! Today, and next week, we shall find out that it has always been about Him. Fear not! The Lord has provided!
