CROWNS ARE BORN OUT OF SUFFERINGS AND AFFLICTIONS.

CROWNS ARE BORN OUT OF SUFFERINGS AND AFFLICTIONS.
Christian sorrows and afflictions is just momentary yet, there's great crown of glory. John 16:33 - "I have said this to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world."

The sufferings, sorrows and afflictions that a true Christian experiences in Christ Jesus is not for a long time. As admonished in 2 Corinthians 4:16-17 -"So we do not lose heart. Though our outer nature is wasting away, our inner nature is being renewed every day. For this slight momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory behold all comparison."
There is glory out of affliction and sufferings in Christ. Take a look at what Jesus Christ taught in Luke 6:20-21 "....

Blessed are you poor, for yours is the kingdom of God. "Blessed are you that hunger now, for you shall be satisfied. "Blessed are you that weep now, for you shall laugh.
Dearly beloved, with a clear conscience; are you rightly dividing the words of truth as a soldier of the Cross ? So I exhort you as a fellow Christian and witness of the sufferings of Christ as well as a partaker in the glory that is to be revealed.(1Peter 5:1).

Though people may say and imagine you to be a fool or interpret the Words of God to suit their cravings; yet look distinctively at your fingers and know the one that you belong to. Know that you will be noted for a unique thorns in the flesh; just like in the case of Job while serving and trusting in Jesus Christ.

Have faith and be steadfast as admonished in 1Peter4:1...,"Since therefore Christ suffered in the flesh, arm yourselves with the same thought, for whoever has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin.
It is unfortunately abysmal for those juxtaposing for ecclesiastical positions in the Church where Jesus Christ is the Head. Some are using dogmas, lemmas and heretical philosophies to achieve their aims.

These persons had forgot the salient differences between “Mantle" and “Title" in the parlance where they want to manifest their aggrandizement, relegating the Spiritual Scepter and the inherent glory of the God in whom they profess to worship; thus superimposed human attainments to equate with that which is divine and glorious. It is an aberration for carnal man to truncate aspirations that were divinely mandated. Imagine the surge they infused in the minds of fables; incising that “Analogue evangelism" be replace by “Digital spiritualism ”.

CROWNS ARE BORN OUT OF SUFFERINGS AND AFFLICTIONS.

All their acquired knowledge, is to distort ancient correctness of which has been the existence of the Church. They forgot about the mystery in the Priesthood of Melchizedek and the disputed body of Moses.
What then is the crux in fighting and killing for position in the church that will not last or take man to Heaven ?

I said to him,” Sir, you know."And he said to me,” These are they who have come out of the great tribulation; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night within his temple; and he who sits upon the throne will shelter them with his presence.

They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; the sun shall not strike them, nor any scorching heat. For the Lamb in the midst of the throne will be their Shepherd and he will guide them to springs of living water; and God will wipe away every tear from their eyes."

Finally dearly beloved, there is joy and gladness after every vessel undergoes purification in the furnace of God. Let us close by attesting to this passage, Revelation 7:13-17....”Then one of the elders addressed me, saying;"Who are these, clothed in white robes, and whence have they come ? "
