mhykx:
I have a question.

What is/are the difference/s between trial, tribulation, and persecution?

Thanks a lot!

Deborah-Leigh:
Good question Mike.

Persecution is part of trials and tribulations. Do you know where persecutions START?

Ref LOF part 3 ...persecutions...start in our own household.

"And a man's foes shall be they of his own household. He that loveth father or mother more than Me is NOT WORTHY  of Me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than Me is  NOT WORTHY  of Me. And he that taketh not his cross and followeth after Me, IS NOT WORTHY OF ME." (Matt. 10. 26-28)

Arcturus, Amen about persecution starting in our own household, but I am no better than them because of my reactions. After reading about the description of repentance and the breaking of the law I think I will not say as much. I think for the first time I really got it. The breaking of one law is the breaking of all the law. How can one bear it when they see horrible sins in themselves?  I am serious, I feel creepy. judy

Deborah-Leigh:
Reverential gratitude to God and humble recognition that could be just as bad as anyone we judge is the beginning of Wisdom. A wondrous blessing indeed.

This Experience Of Evil is for our growth and readiness for HIS Purpose for us.

Rom 8: 20-22
20  For the creation was not willingly subjected to vanity, but through Him (GOD) subjecting it, on hope;
21  that also the creation will be freed from the slavery of corruption to the freedom of the glory of the children of God.
22  For we know that all the creation groans together and travails together until now.

Rom 8: 28-30
28  But we know that to the ones loving God all things work together for good, to those being called according to purpose;
29  because whom He foreknew, He also predestinated to be conformed to the image of His Son, for Him to be the First-born among many brothers.
30  But whom He predestinated, these He also called; and whom He called, these He also justified; and whom He justified, these He also glorified.
