In this final installment of a 3-part series, we continue to examine the subject of suffering by looking to the Lord Jesus Christ as great primary example in how to handle our suffering. We make the following connections between Christ's sufferings and our own:
9. His friends mostly failed Him.
(Mark 14:37-41, Matt. 26:56, John 16:32, Ps. 69:20, 2Tim 4:6,10-11,16-17)
10. He forgave those who wronged Him.
(1Pet. 2:23, Luke 23:34)
11. He kept on ministering to others.
(John 13-16, Luke 22:51, 23:27-38,43 John 19:26-27)
12. He looked past the suffering to glorious joy.
(Heb. 12:2, John 12:23-25, Luke 16:25, Rom. 8:18, 2Cor. 4:17-18, 1Pet. 5:10)
