That Christ should suffer, and that he should be the first that should rise from the dead, and should show light to the people, and to the Gentiles.
Proverbs 1:2-3 2To know wisdom and instruction; to perceive the words of understanding; 3To receive the instruction of wisdom, justice, and judgment, and equity;
My brothers, count it all joy when you fall into divers temptations; Knowing this, that the trying of your faith works patience. But let patience have her perfect work, that you may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.
For you suffer fools gladly, seeing you yourselves are wise.
Come to Me, all you that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is long-suffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
