Affiliation with affliction is an affirmed, guaranteed, and inescapable outcome for the Believer who will follow after Messiah Yeshua in obedience to His Word. All true Believers will experience the reality of affliction in their lifetime. According to Yeshua’s teachings, those who are not true Believers will ultimately fall away and return to the world’s way of life when the afflictions come. Joy, however, can be found in the midst of any manner of affliction if one knows where to put their focus. In this portion of Paul’s Letter to the Thessalonians, he reveals how to find joy in afflictions.
