The word Tribulation is often looked down. Everyone is trying to run away from sufferings. But the apostles gloried in the tribulation (sufferings) that came into their lives. Rom 5:3-4 – Not only so, but we[a] also glory in our sufferings, (Thlipsis is the Greek word uses. A more appropriate English word would be Tribulation? Why would the apostle glory in tribulation?) “because (he says) we know that suffering produces perseverance; 4 perseverance, character; and character, hope.” Tribulation is something we should glory in? Is that so.
