1 Pierre • Soyez pleins d’espérance « [Les difficultés] éprouvent la réalité de votre foi et en augmentent la valeur. […] Elle vous vaudra louange, gloire et honneur, lorsque JésusChrist apparaîtra » (1 Pierre 1 : 7 – Parole vivante).

Une persécution officielle est sur le point de survenir et de ravager le peuple de Dieu. L’apôtre Pierre lui montre comment surmonter ces épreuves pour la gloire de Dieu. Un temps viendra où notre foi moderne et confortable sera confrontée à la souffrance. Comment alors rayonnerons-nous la gloire de Dieu ? « Seuls les chrétiens vivant dans la compromission pourront continuer à mener une vie agréable, mais cela leur coûtera cher. Dieu nous adresse un message : “Ayez confiance ! La souffrance conduit à la gloire ! Je peux vous donner toute la grâce dont vous avez besoin pour m’honorer au temps de l’épreuve !” » – Warren W. Wiersbe.

Puisse ce commentaire vous encourager à ne pas craindre l’épreuve de votre foi, mais à persévérer sans compromis et pleins d’espérance !

1 Pierre • Soyez pleins d’espérance « [Les difficultés] éprouvent la réalité de votre foi et en augmentent la valeur. […] Elle vous vaudra louange, gloire et honneur, lorsque JésusChrist apparaîtra » (1 Pierre 1 : 7 – Parole vivante).

Une persécution officielle est sur le point de survenir et de ravager le peuple de Dieu. L’apôtre Pierre lui montre comment surmonter ces épreuves pour la gloire de Dieu. Un temps viendra où notre foi moderne et confortable sera confrontée à la souffrance. Comment alors rayonnerons-nous la gloire de Dieu ? « Seuls les chrétiens vivant dans la compromission pourront continuer à mener une vie agréable, mais cela leur coûtera cher. Dieu nous adresse un message : “Ayez confiance ! La souffrance conduit à la gloire ! Je peux vous donner toute la grâce dont vous avez besoin pour m’honorer au temps de l’épreuve !” » – Warren W. Wiersbe.

Puisse ce commentaire vous encourager à ne pas craindre l’épreuve de votre foi, mais à persévérer sans compromis et pleins d’espérance !

21 1 Pierre • Soyez pleins d’espérance
