anechomai) my message of exhortation, for in fact I have written to you briefly” (Heb. A lack of patience and failing to live in the light of the coming of the Lord often leads to grumbling against others. Satan, the prince of evil spirits and adversary of God in the Abrahamic religions (Judaism, Christianity, and Islam). 6:15) or passively, “be patient, long-suffering” (Jam. Here Paul used a very different word, the Greek To grumble is to fail to live in the certainty of the return of the Lord and to fail to recognize the extreme shortness of this life as James has previously pointed out, “What is your life like? 6:6-7). 19:1-6); indeed, it is not only a mighty revelation of His divine power (Rom. Speaking of our new relationship with one another in Christ, Paul wrote: Colossians 3:11 Here there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcised or uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave or free, but Christ is all and in all. Jesus appeared to him and said (Acts 18:9-10), “Do not be afraid any longer, but go on speaking and do not be silent; for I am with you, and no man will attack you in order to harm you, for I have many people in this city.” Paul didn’t know yet who God’s people in that city were, but God knew. Thus, the characteristics that should mark out a Christian leader are also the marks of biblical maturity which are in essence the product of true spirituality. Remember that His Word is powerful, that His sovereign purpose in saving His elect will succeed, and that His promises are trustworthy. anexomai) of the verb just described, The other interpretive problem is in the last line. hupomone), character; and character, hope” (Rom. This is a subject that is rather extensive in the New Testament, but unfortunately, very little teaching is devoted to it in spite of the many passages that deal with rewards or their loss in the New Testament. Timothy was under pressure to compromise the gospel. 12:2; 10:13, either a possessive or attributive genitive). Why do so many Christians have difficulty with the doctrine of election? Q. Communicating God’s truth very often meets not only with resistance but hostility. As they came around a switchback, they came bumper to bumper with a truckload of terrorist rebels known as The Shining Path. 13:4) and endures all things (1 Cor. 5:3-4). makrothumia and The qualities that should characterize Christian leaders are also the marks of spiritual maturity as described in the Bible. epieikeia (reasonableness, gentleness). Slaves were to serve their masters and all Christians are to do their work as a service to the Lord. The relationship of suffering, endurance, and hope in the growth and maturity of Christians is also seen in Romans 5:3-4: “Not only this, but we also rejoice in sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance; and endurance, character; and character, hope.”. Many were so moved that they wanted to lay down their weapons right there and leave The Shining Path. The goal is not winning an argument, but winning a soul. The plain truth is that the persons we are today will determine the rewards we will receive in eternity. 8:28-29; 2 Cor. He was the catalyst for the fall of humanity. 6:12 for this use with the noun) or the attitude of self-restraint that refuses to get even for a wrong that has been done but patiently endures rather than retaliate. Thus, living patiently in view of the Lord’s coming has a double focus here. 24:22, 31). Many biblical names (Adam, Esau and Edom) are derived from this Hebrew word which means flesh. It is linked with makrothumia),’ said the envoy to the king, ‘you will turn your people from evil’ (p. 188).93, In the New Testament the verb is used actively meaning “to persevere, endure” (Heb. Jesus claims to have authority to give eternal life to all whom the Father has given Him. And it is no different for any of us. Thus, Paul wrote: Ephesians 4:1 I, therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, entreat you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling with which you have been called,…. Colossians 3:12-13 Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with a heart of mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience, 3:13 bearing with one another and forgiving one another, When you think of the host of differences in people who are brought together in the body of Christ—social, religious, economic, racial, national, and age, not to mention the many personality differences—treating others with patience, putting up with them in love is a crucial ingredient for living and serving the Lord Jesus in unity, with harmony and effectiveness. 4:13ff) and not the Great White Throne Judgment which occurs at the end of the millennium and is only for unbelievers (Rev. makrothumeo, “be patient,” but in verse 11 he also used two other words discussed previously, 2:10). If the first construction, “steadfastness with joy,” is correct, joy is seen as the necessary element that is needed with endurance and patience. Those who maintain trust in God during hardships will receive "the crown of life." Why would Paul say this to Timothy? If He had not done so, none of us would have believed. kratos, “strength”) means “to be strong, to be steadfast, to endure.” Speaking of Moses, the author of Hebrews wrote, “By faith he left Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king; for he endured, as seeing Him who is unseen.” Hebrews 11:27 shows that the reason for Moses’ fearlessness and endurance was that in faith he kept the one who is invisible continually before his eyes. 23 But reject foolish and ignorant controversies, because you know they breed fights. The emphasis is not that He gives eternal life to all who will believe of their own free will, but rather that He gives eternal life to all whom the Father has given Him. Here James looks outward to the world as a whole and its future doom though his purpose is to awaken his readers to the temporary nature and ultimate doom of all human wealth. In your own words, describe the endurance, perseverance, and patience of the following: 6. 6 For I am already being poured out as a drink offering, and the time of my departure has come. 8:30): “and these whom He predestined, He also called; and these whom He called, He also justified; and these whom He justified, He also glorified.” In other words, those whom God saves, He keeps. 1:4). The overall point reinforces what Paul has been saying, that if we endure hardship with Christ now, we will experience glory with Him in eternity. 3:23 Whatever you are doing, work at it with enthusiasm, as to the Lord and not for people, 3:24 because you know that you will receive your inheritance from the Lord as the reward (literally, “the reward of your inheritance”). It seems they were more concerned about financial prosperity or maintaining their comfortable lifestyle and didn’t want to rock the boat. The church at Corinth not only questioned Paul’s apostolic authority but they were critical of Paul’s person and ministry claiming, “His letters are weighty and forceful, but his physical presence is weak and his speech is of no account.” If you have sought to witness of the Savior or teach others the Word, you too may have run into resistance. The temptation is to groan or complain against those we think are responsible. Ephesians 4:2-3 with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, 4:3 making every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. After death however Lazarus was in the blessed place of Abraham’s bosom and the rich man was in a place of torment. As we waited, I began to think some negative thoughts like, “Why can’t he run his office more efficiently? Because of Satan’s deceitful activities and because of the devastating effects of the fall of man as recorded in Genesis 3, which includes a creation that groans under the curse enacted because of the fall (Rom. My wife’s oncologist prescribed a very powerful drug administered by IV to help rebuild bone but this made her very sick and caused extreme pain. What are the specific qualities that mark out a person as Christ-like? 3:18). All barriers are destroyed in Christ, and all believers are truly “created equal.” So it is to be expected that each believer—regardless of his nationality, former religion, culture, or economic standing—should do away with his former sinful practices and should live in accord with his “new self.”98. Moses was willing to leave the treasures of Egypt, “choosing rather to endure ill-treatment with the people of God, than to enjoy the passing pleasures of sin; considering the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures of Egypt; for he was looking to the reward.” It was the invisible, but very real future reward that gave Moses the capacity to endure ill-treatment with the people of God. His faithfulness is always mentioned to give encouragement to discouraged saints, not to warn unbelievers of His judgments. 12:3 Think of him who endured such opposition against himself by sinners, so that you may not grow weary in your souls and give up. From 1977-1992 he was the pastor of Lake Gregory Community Church in Crestline, California. 11:27; 1 Thess. Then with verses 10-11, he gives examples of patience and concludes with what could be considered as an evidence of patience (vs. 12). Most recently, we have witnessed a rash of school shootings with children killing teachers and students. Paul says that if Christ is not risen, our faith is worthless (1 Cor. But why so much on endurance? I have read that the following words were spelled out in lights at the 18th Olympics at Tokyo, in 1964. “The most important thing in the Olympic Games is not to win but to take part; just as the most important thing in life is not the triumph but the struggle. 1:20), but of the daily grace and mercy of God’s beneficial providence (Acts 14:17; Job 5:9-10; Ps. He is showing him how to endure when he feels tempted to drop out. As the Lord does in Matthew 6:19f, James focuses his readers on the differences between earthly and heavenly treasures. That way He gets all the glory (1 Cor. This would then be what is sometimse called a plenary construction where the author intends more that one idea to be understood. Should an Unbeliever Partake of Communion? The noun always translates the Greek word hypomone []; the verbs translate several Greek verbs (hypomeno [], epimeno [], and kartereo []).. 1:15). If you grumble and complain, you’re missing the opportunity for the power of the gospel to shine through your life. When Paul preached in Thessalonica (Acts 17:1-10), some of the Jews and God-fearing Greeks were persuaded, but many of the Jews became jealous with the final result Paul had to move on to Berea. The words for enduring or bearing with something or someone are not just used of the responsibility of the messenger, but also of those receiving the message. Fight the Good Fight 10 For the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil. makrothumia, “patience,” is listed as one of the qualities of the fruit of the Spirit. The American Heritage dictionary defines perseverance as “steady persistence in adhering to a course of action, a belief, or a purpose; steadfastness.” It defines endurance as “the act, quality, or power of withstanding hardship or stress,” but in the second definition it defines endurance as “the state or act of persevering.”92 While they are synonyms and each word carries in it the idea of “continuance,” perseverance lays stress on a given course of action in the face of difficulty or opposition. The noun 5:23), gives the capacity to remain steadfast for the sake of others. 6:4; Jam. As Peter preached on the Day of Pentecost (Acts 2:36), “Therefore let all the house of Israel know for certain that God has made Him both Lord and Christ—this Jesus whom you crucified.”, So Paul is making the point that because Jesus in His humanity suffered shame and death on a cross for our sins, God highly exalted Him (Phil. John 10:26-28: “But you do not believe because you are not of My sheep. iii. 102 John F. Walvoord, Roy B. Zuck, Editors, The Bible Knowledge Commentary, Victor Books, Wheaton, 1983,1985, electronic media.. 103 Frank E. Gaebelein, General Editor, The Expositor’s Bible Commentary, New Testament, Zondervan, Grand Rapids, 1976-1992, electronic media. Life and the ministry is an endurance event, indeed, it’s a marathon if not a decathlon! Job is one who persevered with great endurance, but he grew demanding over time—he was impatient with God! 101 Erwin W. Lutzer, Triumph and Tears at the Judgment Seat of Christ, Your Eternal Reward, Moody Press, Chicago, 1998, p. 25. 8. 3:28); religious distinctions (circumcised or uncircumcised); cultural distinctions (anyone foreign to Greek culture was a barbarian, and a Scythian was a wild, savage nomad); and economic or social distinctions (slave or free). hupomeno, are often used in connection with trials or tribulation, but never in the sense of mere resignation or a ‘grin and bear it’ attitude. The coming ( The point being is that Christians need biblical discernment and should not bear with or put up with any kind of false teaching or teachers. Luke 12:35-38 “Get dressed for service and keep your lamps burning; 12:36 be like men waiting for their master to come back from the wedding celebration, so that when he comes and knocks they can open the door for him immediately. Compete well for the faith (fight the good fight) and lay hold of that eternal life you were called for and made your good confession for in the presence of many witnesses. What does he warn them will happen if they lose patience and complain about each another? In other words, love never retaliates or seeks to get even. In this prayer, Paul prayed that either (1) they might wait patiently for the coming Savior as translated by the KJV, “into the patient waiting for Christ” (objective genitive), or (2) that they might have the kind of endurance that Christ gives, an endurance that comes from relationship with Him (subjective genitive), or (3) that they might experience the kind of endurance that belongs to Christ or that was demonstrated in His sufferings on earth and that He is demonstrating even now as He waits for His enemies to be made a footstool for His feet (Heb. Note also that Paul viewed the gospel as his personal treasure. 11:19). The Lord’s sure return (parousia) should stimulate every believer to patience and strength of heart. These verses remind us of the story of the rich man and Lazarus in Luke 16 which contrasts the state of the rich man and Lazarus after death. The apostle Paul, as with all the apostles, suffered tremendous hardships for the sake of Christ and their calling in the ministry of the gospel. undefined Often, when continuance on a course is in view like bearing fruit or doing good works, “perseverance” is used. My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me; and I give eternal life to them, and they will never perish; and no one will snatch them out of My hand.”. As the risen Savior, He also promises to give us the victory over the grave. The first and third lines then mean, “If we hold fast our confession faithfully unto death, we will live eternally in heaven with Him, but if we deny Him, He will deny us before the Father” (as Jesus warned, Matt. This demonstrated the staying power of great maturity throughout his life right up to his death. We are to do so because we know we have our own, because we do not want to harm the unity of the body, because people are created in God’s image, and because we know God uses these very differences just as the differences of the members of our body are vital to our function (1 Cor. As with all the marks of spiritual maturity, the Lord Jesus is our perfect example in the mature qualities of endurance or perseverance, and patience. 10:33). Thus, in this great and moving passage, the author points us the Cross and the many hostilities the Savior endured as the catalyst and the example that should fortify Christians to endurance as they face the difficulties involved in living out their faith in a hostile and difficult world. It is the Christian’s hope, his confident expectation in what God is doing as a sovereign God and will do, that is one of the means to his endurance under affliction or trial. 2 Timothy 2:22-26 But keep away from youthful passions, and pursue righteousness, faithfulness, love, and peace, in company with others who call on the Lord from a pure heart. In view of the reality of the coming of the Lord and His judgment, Paul wrote, “preach the message (the Word), be persistent (or ready) whether it is convenient or inconvenient, reprove, rebuke, exhort with complete patience and teaching” (NET emphasis mine). 4:1-5). This demonstrates how patience should always express itself “in loving forbearance with one another.” To bear with another ( In Luke 8:11 Jesus said, “But as for the seed that landed on the good soil, these are the ones who, after hearing the word, hold it fast in an honest and good heart, and bring forth fruit with steadfast endurance ( makrothumia) inherit the promises.” Then, as an illustration, the author pointed to Abraham and wrote, “And so by persevering ( 334f. John 6:37, 39: “All that the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will certainly not cast out…. He stands as the Pioneer and Perfecter of our faith or literally and simply “the faith.” He is the ultimate illustration of living the faith way of life. 2:2; 1 Tim. He defined the essence of patience, gave some examples of patience, and indicated an evidence of patience.102. Jesus says that there are some whom the Father has given to Him (He elsewhere calls these “the elect,” Matt. It is alive and active. However, given the context of Scripture, this is an unlikely meaning. If someone is not of that group, he does not believe. Howard Hendricks, a well-known conference speaker, teacher at Dallas Seminary, and leader of men, once looked out over a audience of young Campus Crusade for Christ trainees and commented, “Gentlemen, I’m not impressed.” His point, as he went on to explain, was that he would only be impressed if they were still committed to ministry and the service of the Savior forty years later. hupomone, “endurance.”. that His Word is powerful; Finally. Hebrews 12:1-3 Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, we must get rid of every weight and the sin that clings so closely, and run with endurance the race set out for us, 12:2 keeping our eyes fixed on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of our faith. He prays first that the Colossians might be filled with the knowledge of God’s will. makrothumia (the noun, used 14 times) are derived from a compound of ( A third clue is, “descendant of David.” Why does Paul use this unusual phrase here (used elsewhere only in Rom. Having used the farmer to show the essence of patience, James then turned to the authoritative Old Testament, to God’s Word, to give two key examples of those who experienced affliction, but who did so with patience and endurance—the prophets and Job. The Letter of Aristeas may have the new meaning. Also, a tremendously helpful book on this is Erwin Lutzer’s book, Triumph and Tears at the Judgment Seat of Christ: Your Eternal Reward, Moody Press, Chicago, 1998. Interestingly, when God did deal with Job’s impatience, He still never told Job about the issues of chapters 1 and 2. These studies were developed in a team training environment where men were being trained for their role as church leaders, as fathers, and as effective members of a society that desperately needs to see what authentic, biblical Christianity looks like. So Paul is exhorting Timothy to persevere. 5:9 Do not grumble against one another, brothers and sisters,… With these words, the application becomes more specific. Because of the hostile pressures mentioned in the previous soils (vss. Yet Paul never gave up. Obviously, no one can continue to run in the race, stand firm in the struggles of life, labor effectively, or handle the trials of life without endurance or perseverance, and patience. anecho, “to endure” plus the noun When He comes, he will wipe away every tear, right every wrong, and reward every faithfulness. The picture is that of a relentless teacher who firmly overlooks the painful consequences of his affirmations.”99 Again, the context of 2 Timothy 2:24 is one of meeting resistance from those who oppose the truth and have been duped by Satan’s trap and here, John 6:44, 65: No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him; and I will raise him up on the last day…. Before looking at these verses, we should remember that James’ readers were severely afflicted with materialism or the spirit of worldliness (see Jam. It is there, in the Word, that we can keep our eyes on the Savior. They profess to be content with a “little shack in heaven,” but want a much bigger one on earth! 118 #472, Oct, 1961, pp. Love keeps the lid on over the long haul. As the Psalmist declares, the world in which we live beautifully reflects the glory of God (Ps. Endurance is a gift and guarantee of the new covenant sealed by the blood of Jesus for all who trust in him. 2:14; see also, Matt. hupomone and 4:3). God never said it would be easy and we should never expect it to be so. Thus, these words characteristically represent long-suffering patience toward persons rather than things.94. But in 2:8 alone, he reverses it to Jesus Christ. Naturally, we could never walk in a manner worthy of our Lord’s grace and mercy. Living with patience and endurance rather than grumbling is truly connected with how well we live in view of the return of the Lord Jesus, the Judge of the Bema. Instead following their own desires, they will accumulate teachers for themselves, because they have a craven curiosity to hear new things” (2 Tim. This also reminds us, however, that life and especially our ministries involve us in a life-and-death struggle.
