“For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps” (1 Peter 2: 21).
The NIV Study Bible states: The patient endurance of injustice is part of God’s plan for the Christian. Christ is the supreme example of suffering evil for doing good. His experience as the suffering Servant-Saviour transforms the sufferings of his followers from misery into privilege.”
Our growth will never be hindered if we “follow his steps.”
