2 CORINTHIANS 12:7-10

(LET US TEST OURSELVES 2 COR. 13:5)

INSULTS

  • Do I ignore them?
  • Respond with an insult
  • Cut the person off
  • Learn with humility

HARDSHIPS

  • Accept them as time to depend on God
  • Complain to everyone
  • Get angry with God
  • Fear something will go wrong so I avoid change

PERSECUTION

  • Forcefully fight back?
  • Respond like Jesus did His accusers
  • Discredit our enemies
  • Avoid those not like us

WEAKNESSES

  • High expectation of others
  • Attempt to hide them
  • Deny they exist
  • Accept support and help

WHY DO WE SERVE GOD

  • To be recognized
  • Feel guilty if we don’t
  • It is my duty
  • Seeking the eternal reward and glory of God

JAMES 5:10-11

“WE COUNT THEM BLESSED WHO ENDURED”
