Blessed be God , even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ , the Father of merices , and the God of all comfort ,
Who comforts us in all our tribulations , that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble , by the comfort
wherewith we ourseleves are comforted of God.
And in nothing terrified by your adversaries , which is to them an evident token of Perdition , but to you of Salvation , and that OF GOD.
For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ , not only TO BELEIVE on HIM, but ALSO to SUFFER for HIS sake.
I know both how to be abased , and I KNOW HOW to abound , everywhere and in ALL things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry , both to abound
and to suffer need . I CAN DO ALL THINGS .......THROUGH CHRIST who strengthens me .
That no man should be moved by these AFFLICTIONS , for you yourselves DO KNOW that we are APPOINTED thereunto. JESUS HAD SAID IT .
For verily when we were with you , we told you before that we SHOULD SUFFER TRIBULATION . Even as it came to pass, and YOU KNOW .
So that we ourselves glory in you in the churches of GOD for you patience and faith in ALL your persecutions and tribulations that you endure .
WHICH is a MANIFEST TOKEN OF the RIGHTEOUS JUDGMENT OF GOD , that You may be COUNTED WORTHY of the kingdom of God , for which YOU ALSO SUFFER.
Seeing it is a righteous thing with God to recompense tribulation to them that TROUBLE YOU , AND to you who are troubled REST , WHEN WHEN WHEN
the Lord JESUS shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels , IN flaming fire taking vengeance on them that KNOW NOT GOD
and that Obey not the gospel Of jesus Christ . Wow sounds like a one time event . the kill many in the church , then JESUS calls us up as HE lays down wrath .
And that through much tribulation do we enter the Kingdom of GOD .
IN this world YE shall have TRIBULATION .
For whom the LORD loves he chastens and scourges every son whom he receives . If you endure chastening , God deals with you as with sons
for what son is he whom the Father chastens not .
