Do You Believe? - Message 15 - Faith that Endures. The Holy Spirit declares to us in inspired, inerrant, and infallible words that those who “obtained a good testimony by faith” were the same ones who were put on trial, mocked, scourged, chained, imprisoned, destitute, afflicted, and tormented. But there is a false gospel being preached today that tells us that if we have true faith we will not suffer! They preach that if your problems do not go away, then you just do not have enough faith. Wait a minute. The Bible says that those who have faith of the highest caliber are often suffering, are destitute, are afflicted, and are tormented. This one verse today debunks every false teacher and every ministry that preaches a self help prosperity gospel. The faithful we read about in Scripture knew that God was with them through suffering. The “faithful” today are taught how to get and stay out of suffering by the use of superstitious mantras disguised as prayers and best selling books masquerading as truth. The church has been granted the great and precious gift and privilege of suffering for Christ's sake, and sadly we are being taught to view that honor as something to be scorned, avoided, and detested. Why are we ashamed to suffer?
