Christians are being told it is not God's will for believers to suffer, but what did the apostles preach? Peter said, "Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to him in well doing, as unto a faithful creator" (1 Peter 4:19) "...Because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps" (1 Peter 2:21). Peter is saying, "It is enough to know God is faithful, that He won't let you suffer more than you are able, that He will make a way of escape, that you may be able to bear it." Commit the keeping of your body and soul to Him!
