Other Suffering and Its Benefits
Paul has a lot of things to say about suffering and its benefits. Remember, he thought that it was only by suffering that he could be a true apostle of Jesus.4 Rather than complain about suffering, then, Paul reveled in it. For one thing, Paul thought that suffering could build character:
We even boast in our afflictions, knowing that affliction produces endurance, and endurance produces a proven character; and a proven character produces hope; and hope is not put to shame, because the love of God is poured out in our hearts through the Holy Spirit that has been given to us. (Rom. 5:3â5)
