Thematic Bible: Even under affliction
Thematic Bible
Steadfastness » Should be manifested » Even under affliction
That, no one, might be shrinking back in these tribulations. For ye, yourselves, know, that, hereunto, are we appointed;
All this, hath come upon us, Yet had we not forgotten thee, Neither had we dealt falsely with thy covenant; Our heart had not drawn back, Nor had our goings swerved from thy path; That thou shouldst have crushed us down in the place of wild dogs, And covered us over with a deadly shadow.
Who shall separate us from the love of the Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? - According as it is written - For thy sake, are we being put to death all the day long, we have been reckoned as sheep for slaughter. - Nay, in all these things, we are more than conquering through him that hath loved us.
