Tribulation = suffering which results from pressure on the soul.<\/h3>\n

Tribulation is a word that has an interesting history. The English word comes from the Latin name for a flail. A piece of wood, a little longer than a broomstick, has attached to it by a leather thong a shorter piece of wood. The laborer swings the flail through the air and the shorter piece of wood beats upon the wheat, separating the grain from the chaff. There came a time when believers were so persecuted that it seemed as though they were being beaten out like wheat. This came to be called tribulation. \u2014 Barnhouse, page 191.<\/span><\/h3>\n

Distress = anguish, shut up without the possibility of escape.<\/h3>\n

The Greek word [distress] is a combination of two words, the one meaning narrow and the other meaning space. It conveys the thought of being hemmed in. \u2014 Barnhouse, page 192.<\/span><\/h3>\n

More than conquerors = super-conquerors, super-victorious<\/h3>\n

Him that loved us \u2014 the tense indicates past action continuing into the present.<\/h3>\n

Not only do we win the battle; we are more than conquerors for these adversities serve to draw us into still closer fellowship with Him, thus enriching our Christian experience. \u2014 Stam, page 214.<\/span><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
