How should Christians respond to suffering, according to the sermon?

Answered in 1 source

Christians should respond to suffering by turning to Christ in faith, recognizing Him as their only hope.

The sermon emphasizes that in our suffering, we often confront our own limitations and the reality of our sinfulness, just as Job did. Rather than despair, we are encouraged to look to Christ as our Redeemer. In Romans 5:3-5, we see that suffering produces perseverance, character, and hope. This perspective allows believers to find purpose in their trials, trusting that God uses suffering to bring us closer to Him and to deepen our faith. Ultimately, our response should be to declare with Job, 'I know that my Redeemer liveth' and seek refuge in Christ alone during our difficulties.
