1 Peter 1:6-9 |
|
KJV 6 Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if |
|
need be, ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations: 7 |
|
That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of |
|
gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be |
|
found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus |
|
Christ: 8 Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye |
|
see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and |
|
full of glory: 9 Receiving the end of your faith, even the |
|
salvation of your souls. |
|
WEB 6 Wherein you greatly rejoice, though now for a little |
|
while, if need be, you have been grieved in various trials, 7 |
|
that the proof of your faith, which is more precious than gold |
|
that perishes even though it is tested by fire, may be found to |
|
result in praise, glory, and honor at the revelation of Jesus |
|
Christ� 8 whom, not having known, you love. In him, though now |
|
you don�t see him, yet believing, you rejoice greatly with joy |
|
that is unspeakable and full of glory, 9 receiving the result of |
|
your faith, the salvation of your souls. |
|
These are my thoughts, please share yours. |
|
6 Trials often bring us grief but we are still to rejoice and |
|
praise God during these times because we should have the faith |
|
that He will carry us thru them. Life is trials whether we have |
|
God or don�t but because we have God going with us thru the |
|
trial, we have reason to rejoice. |
|
7 As Christians trials are hard but they can be used to draw us |
|
closer to our Lord and grow us in faith and make us ready for |
|
the next steps He has planned for us. |
|
8 We don�t physically see Him but have faith that He is with and |
|
we because we feel His presence, His presence being with us |
|
should bring us this joy that isn�t changed by what trial may |
|
come. We have grace thru Him and fellowship with Him this should |
|
cause our joy. |
|
9 By faith in Him we have salvation. Jesus and faith in Him |
|
alone saves. Many think there are other ways to salvation but |
|
believing in Jesus as our Lord is the only Way. |
