Our world is full of problems. Sometimes it seems like everything goes wrong no matter what we do. The Bible has a lot to say about dealing with life’s problems. In this article, we will explore some of the biblical advice for handling difficult situations in life.
What does the Bible say about doing things in silence?
“In everything, therefore, show yourself an example of good works, in teaching, in integrity, in seriousness, 4 so that the one who teaches can also exhort those who oppose with a sound word, so that that they be saved. 5 Well, even if our word is of faith, as is also our exhortation, but if there are no works, it is dead, affecting only those who listen to it. 6 But if you do works of faith with the same faith, even if it is small, it will make you perfect, complete, meaning that nothing is missing. 7 If in teaching, in exhortation, in the word of faith, in charity, in the practice of good works, 8 you are busy, take care of this, so that you too may be cut off. 9 For we are God’s collaborators, and you are God’s farm, God’s building. 10 As a wise architect, according to the faith that has been given me, I lay the foundation, and another builds on it. But let each one see how he builds on it. 11 For no one can lay another foundation than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. 12 And if on this foundation anyone builds with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble, 13 the work of each one will become manifest; for the day will declare it, for it will be revealed in fire, and the fire will test the work of each one, what his work is. 14 If anyone’s work that he has built remains, he will receive a reward. 15 If anyone’s work is burned up, he will suffer loss; he himself, however, will be saved, though as one who passes through the fire.”
-1 Thessalonians 3:2-5
