"For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us." The Apostle doesn't spend a lot of time focusing on the "sufferings," but simply categorizes them as, "of this present time " and specifically points to our being freed from their bondage by the power of the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. "For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live. For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God." Now we should take heed to this as a grave warning also from the Lord. What happened to the sons of God in the world of the beginning, that they were hardened against the Spirit of the LORD? The same things at work today to wear us down also and seek to turn us away from Jesus. Look at the News look at the world around us every day look at all the terrible enemies and blasphemers look at all those things tempting and contradicting and it is overwhelming! But LOOK UNTO JESUS, and be victorious over all, and overcomers of all!
