In this final message from the Book of 1st Peter concerning suffering in the life of the Christian, we get a glimpse and a reminder of the promised victory that all believers have over every form of suffering. Much of this victory will be experienced while we live by faith on earth. Perfect and full victory, however, only comes after we enter into eternity. The question remains, “Can we beat the devil and overcome all that he hurls against us?” The answer is a resounding YES. Our victory over suffering is contained in the paradox of discovering that, the more we die to what is temporary, the more alive we become to that which is everlasting. God takes every attack, loss, trial, suffering and pain and turns it to our good - both in this life and then for all eternity. Christians must live with a determined confidence that we are triumphant in Jesus. From that launching point, we walk in victory.
