The Benefits of Suffering-Cancer and Depression
Posted April 1 | Pastor Jess Smith
Mysterious are the visitations of sickness. When the Lord is using a man for his glory it is remarkable that he should suddenly smite him down and suspend his usefulness. It must be right, but the reason for it does not lie near the surface. The sinner whose every act pollutes the society in which he moves is frequently permitted year after year to spend un-abating vigor infecting all who approach him. No sickness removes him even for an hour from his deadly ministry. He is always at his post, energetic in his mission of destruction. How is it that a heart for the welfare of men and the glory of God should find itself hampered by a sickly frame, and limited from its best usefulness by attacks of painful disease? We may ask the questions (as long as we do so without murmuring), but who shall answer it for us?”
LESSONS AND OBSERVATIONS FROM THE FIRST TEMPTATION AS RECORDED IN LUKE 4
Posted November 29 | Pastor Jess Smith
Two Observations: (1) The foundations of grace that support and sustain the church in her times(s) of trial and suffering were laid in the wilderness during the temptation of the Lord Jesus and His victory over Satan. Because He stood we can stand. (2) All temptations and tests are under the sovereign control of God. As He ordained and directed all the events of Christ’s temptation so He also ordains and directs the times of our testing – Deuteronomy 8:2-3; James 1:2-4, 12-18.
