Topic:
Help From Christ When We Face Adversity
Everyone, even innocent victims, must deal with the power of
darkness. Everyone must deal with the power of darkness or the darkness
will deal with them. For Christians, Christ is the way we deal with the
darkness. In Christ and in His earthly ministry, we see the power of the
love of God. Jesus conquered the physical limitations of humanity with
His love. Jesus even conquered death by this power of love. We find in
Christ's suffering and death on the cross, a picture of our own
isolation, pain, brokenness, suffering, and separation from God.
However, because He won, we can also win. Jesus suffered so we can win
and at some point, not only suffer no more, but rejoice in Heaven where
there is never any suffering or pain. For us not to try to win out over
our earthly problems, pain, and issues is to turn away from the Cross
and ignore what Jesus did for each of us.
