Hope in the Midst of Suffering

 

Hebrews 11: 37 & 38 (NLT)

 

    Some died by stoning, some were sawed in half, and others were killed with the sword. Some went about wearing skins of sheep and goats, destitute and oppressed and mistreated. 38 They were too good for this world, wandering over deserts and mountains, hiding in caves and holes in the ground.

 

Read the 1 Peter passages below, keeping in mind that Peter wort these words to encourage believers who faced, were facing, or could soon face persecution and suffering.  Look for every source of hope and consider what it would mean to people who were personally acquainted with persecution.
