#71 - Jesus Our Example in Suffering - Matthew Study Wk 10 - a podcast by Fig Tree Ministries

What message can we understand from the narrative of Jesus' betrayal and unjust suffering found in the Gospels (Matt. 26&27)?

Peter helps us understand the more profound message when he explains that Jesus suffered as an"example"for us. Should we face betrayal and unjust suffering - as we likely will - we are to look to Jesus' actions as the example of how we should respond.

In today's lesson, we look at a thread that is woven throughout scripture about unjust suffering, how it connects to Jesus at the pinnacle, and what it means for us as we"walk as Jesus walked"(1 John 2:6).
