Afflictions

For our momentary light affliction worketh for us a transcendently far more exceeding eternal weight of glory;

only this, that the Holy Ghost witnesseth in every city, saying, that bonds and tribulation await thee.

Now I rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up in my flesh the measure of afflictions for Christ which remains to be endured for his body, which is the church,
