The Gospel Assures Us of God's Promises
"The gospel enables us to deal with difficult momentary experiences because it assures us of the permanence of God's promises. When we are momentarily afflicted, we are certain that we will not be crushed because Jesus was crushed on our behalf. When we are persecuted, we know that God will not forsake us because Jesus was forsaken in our place. When we experience death we need not fear, for we know that we will experience resurrection life because Jesus bore the penalty of death on our behalf...Furthermore, the fruit of gospel faithfulness in momentary affliction is a picture of our witness. As we believe and speak the gospel during the most difficult times, the result is that grace extends to more and more people, and God is seen to be more glorious."
