Today we will listen to the Apostle Peter and King Solomon as the share the truth of God’s word related to making sure that we do not suffer needlessly from self-inflicted suffering caused by our rejection of God’s wisdom and living a self-indulgent life.  Initially, we will listen to God’s wisdom shared by the Apostle Peter regarding not suffering as an evil doer.  Next, we will listen to the wisdom given to King Solomon warning us of both the causes and consequences of grievously painful self-inflicted suffering.  Finally, we will listen to the Apostle Peter once again as he helps us to realize our suffering must be the sufferings of Christ as we do the will of our Father in heaven, forsaking sin and embracing His life of sacrifice.
