20 moments matching suffering, word for word. Open them ↓

1. 16:00 He said this to the Philippians too. They knew he was in jail. This is probably the first of Colossians I've ever heard from Paul, but he's he's he's mentioning his sufferings. Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake. Now I rejoice in suffering sounds wild except that you recognize redemptive suffering. Christ in You, the Hope of Glory
2. 45:20 Knowing that the same experiences of suffering are being accomplished. I love the word accomplished there. They're going through the same kind of stuff you're going through. All your brothers and sisters in Christ who are in the world. And so if you're looking for other examples of redemptive suffering, in the Old Testament, you see the suffering servant passages from Isaiah, and they're pointing to Jesus. Conduct Yourselves Worthy of the Gospel
3. 44:11 And like I said last week, redemptive suffering is possible. Not only to believe in him, but also to suffer conjunctions. So this is where I said it last week, God redeems Christian suffering. I want you to know, brothers and sisters, my circumstances turned out for the greater progress of the gospel. Yeah. Conduct Yourselves Worthy of the Gospel
4. 26:59 So we're rowing in the in the dark, and ice is forming on the oars, as we're rowing. And it was miserable. But we often joke if we are on the phone talking, we joke about, man remember when we were suffering in this way? Like, and there's like a bonding that happens. Man, this church is is is suffering in so many different ways together. Joy Despite Imprisonment
5. 43:42 I don't know exactly what the suffering was from the Philippians. I don't know what it was. And honestly, I don't know all your stories and what it is for you. But if you have been, if it has been granted to you for Christ's sake, not only to believe in him, it's probably gonna involve some suffering. And so you have been chosen to carry forward a gospel witness. Conduct Yourselves Worthy of the Gospel
6. 16:43 The Caesars, especially those of Caesar's household who are now believers, send greetings to you. Now he says to the Colossians whom he never met, I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake. I recognize that me suffering is going to benefit you. And in my flesh, right now, what I'm going through day to day, everyday life for him stuck in jail, in my flesh, I'm supplementing what is lacking in Christ's afflictions in behalf of his body, the church. Okay? Christ in You, the Hope of Glory
7. 4:57 The water doesn't freeze usually. So, we're rowing in the in the dark and ice is forming on the oars as we're rowing and it was miserable but we often joke if we are on the phone talking and we joke about, man, remember when we were suffering in this way? Like, and there's like a bonding that happens. Man, this church is is is suffering in so many different ways together. Not just Paul but but the church body too and Paul's here in prison thanking god for the fact that this church is so healthy and strong. Partners in the Gospel
8. 39:56 I have a when I stand up here a lot of times, I close my eyes a lot. You all know that. Sometimes it's my eyes fall and I'm trying not to do it right now. It's not all Christian suffering. Right? For Me to Live Is Christ
9. 52:56 Do you believe god? So that I may know him directly. No intermediary. He is the intermediary, Christ, so that I may know him and the power of his resurrection and the fellowship of what? His sufferings in a letter about joy. Forgetting What Lies Behind, Pressing Forward
10. 43:13 Right? But he didn't. He went through that suffering and was obedient to the cross and he's lifted up. So that pattern is important for us today because now, this is like the application section after the hymn of Christ. And there's three main things in the text. Therefore: Action, Light, and Rejoicing
11. 18:42 I actually am rejoicing in my sufferings. I don't want to be up here. This is the worst. And I've come to enjoy it, so I I know that. Stand in front of people y'all heard this before, but at a funeral, most people would rather be the guy in the box than the guy talking. Christ in You, the Hope of Glory
12. 40:35 If you let it. If you let it. And I think searching for gratitude when you are anxious is part of that, but God redeems Christian suffering. He just does. And now, there are more who are encouraged to be able to speak the word of God freely and without fear because of what Paul is going through. For Me to Live Is Christ
13. 26:34 But those memories of hardship, I know that a lot of us have difficult memories, back in Auburn and crew. We bonded closely, maybe because we were dumb and we signed up for a lot of punishment. But there are some hard days of suffering. We were In Alabama, it does get cold, and we were rowing in February. The water doesn't freeze, usually. Joy Despite Imprisonment
14. 15:02 Boom. But we right now are in a season where we can take advantage, take action of this perfect condition to know this is what the gospel is. Here's somebody that needs it or here's a brother in Christ or sister in Christ that's suffering and needs me to pray for him. I'm going to stop whatever the thing is, and I'm gonna take advantage of the time. Right? Pay Careful Attention to How You Walk
15. 39:30 They're gardening. They're hanging out at the praetorian guard and everyone else. And that most of the brothers and sisters trusting in the Lord because of my imprisonment, have far more courage to speak the word of God without fear. His attitude about being in prison was so good that it allowed other people to not be afraid. God redeems Christian suffering. For Me to Live Is Christ
16. 1:06:46 Jesus committed no sin nor was any deceit found in his mouth. While he was being abusively insulted, he did not insult in return. While suffering, he did not threaten, but he kept on entrusting himself to he him who judges rightly. He himself brought our sins in his body up on the cross that we might die to sin and live for righteousness. By his wounds, you're healed. Give Me Jesus
17. 34:52 And they are down in Salt Lake City. So specific prayer. When I was talking about the reconstituting of bodies, we know that there are several among us who are suffering from various forms of cancer and things. But this is a very new diagnosis and it's at a time where it's pretty high level stress, but that's where they are. I wanna pray for them and then we'll get started. Hills and Valleys: Walking Out the Faith
18. 58:47 He didn't insult him in turn, but while suffering, he did not threaten, but he kept on entrusting himself to him who judges righteously. Father God, that is so hard to understand for us. When we don't feel like we understand who Father God is, but we do feel like we get Christ, this is where we go. He kept on entrusting himself to him who judges righteously. I don't see how that can be. Give Me Jesus
19. 1:04:24 A man of great pain and familiar with sickness or a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief. And like one from whom people hide their faces, oh man, I just can't even look at it anymore. He was despised and we had no regard for him. This is called the song of the suffering servant and it's been understood a lot of different ways but if you don't see Jesus by the end of, come see me afterwards. Okay? Give Me Jesus
20. 53:18 So that I may know him and the power of his resurrection, the fellowship of his sufferings, and being conformed into his death. Does that remind you of anywhere else in scripture? There's several other places but the one that popped to my mind is the one I think of every time we do a baptism. Therefore, we have been buried with him through baptism into his death. We are being conformed into his death. Forgetting What Lies Behind, Pressing Forward
