BSN: SUFFERING AND GLORY

  • Jesus said in Lk 24:26 that Messiah was prophesied to experience sufferings which would be followed by glory. Peter confirmed this messianic pattern in 1 Pet 1:11.
  • Paul said in Rom 8:17, 18 that our lives as believers will have us following this same pattern. Peter confirms this in 1 Pet 5:1, 10.
  • Verses that have reference to both suffering and glory in the same verse: Lk 24:26; Rom 8:17, 18; Heb 2:9, 10; 1 Pet 1:11; 4:13; 5:1, 10
  • The stark difference between suffering and glory make their combination in prophecy about the Messiah a mystery – or we could say a set of mysteries (Mysteries and Revelations)
