This morning I will share the specific paradigm we need to adopt as children of God in my lesson titled, “What to Expect from the New Paradigm Toward Suffering.”  We will be listening to the Lord Jesus and His Apostles, Peter and Paul, as they teach us what we are to expect regarding suffering as Christians.  First, they will clearly illustrate the mindset we must possess to embrace affliction, suffering, and persecution for doing the will of the LORD.  Second, they will describe and illustrate how to respond when we are persecuted or made to suffer for doing what is right in the eyes of the LORD.  Brethren, to embrace this new mindset and allow the Scriptures to transform our responses toward the many trials, challenges, difficulties, and afflictions that come to us through persecutions is critical for our forward movement in leading others to Christ in perilous times.
