Christian Comfort in the Bible Path
Is it even possible, in this day and age with all of the turmoil, sorrow and pure evil all around us to get comfortable, be comfortable and to stay comfortable? The answer is absolutely !!! Let us seek and find truth within the Bible, shall we?
Did you know that Jesus took away our illness and bore
sicknesses?
Matthew 8:17
That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by
Esaias (Isaiah) the prophet, saying, Himself (Jesus) took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses ...
This is what Isaiah said who was quoted:
Isaiah 53:4
Surely He hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows:
yet we did esteem Him stricken, smitten of God, and
afflicted.
Peter echoed these words.
1 Peter 2:24
Who His own self bare our sins in His own body on the tree,
that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness:
by whose stripes ye were healed.
That seems like something to be of Good Comfort about.
1 Peter 2:21-22
21 For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also
suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should
follow his steps:
22 Who did no sin, neither was guile found in
His mouth ...

Get Comfortable and Be Comfortable Tips
So, this is saying that Jesus took our sins as being His own and was punished for us in place of us. What a true Friend we have in Jesus huh? His act was that of a friend taking the blame for a crime that we committed, which had us sentenced to death. That is true unconditional Love.
John 15:13
Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his
life for his friends.
Christian Comfort in the Bible Point of Interest ... Funny how we know this and most still refuse to take up
their own Cross and completely follow Him.
Matthew 10:38-39
38 And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is
not worthy of me.
39 He that findeth his life shall lose it:
and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it ...
Most have no prob enjoying the good fruits of being a
Christian, but tend to lift their brow when they find
they have to surrender things that they enjoy from man’s
world for this Friend who took their blame and died for
them.
Christian Comfort in the Bible Tidbit of Truth ... It is like many “good weather” friends we have
here on earth who are happy as a lark when they get
their way, but when we say No, they turn on us.
This is why Jesus said;
Matthew 15:8
This people draweth nigh unto me with their
mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is
far from me ...

Man

Amen loudly and proudly when they hear Truth such as
Put God first, Love all, forgive all, etc. and step

what they were taught by our Lord.
Lemme share a couple quick stories from the Bible with ya which may hold the answer to the be of good comfort Bible verse recipe. Christian Comfort in the Bible Story Time ... Most have heard of a miracle where Jesus fed about 5000;
Matthew 14:15-21
15 And when it was evening, His disciples came to Him,
saying, This is a desert place, and the time is now
past; send the multitude away, that they may go into
the villages, and buy themselves victuals.
16 But Jesus
said unto them, They need not depart; give ye them
to eat.
17 And they say unto him, We have here but five
loaves, and two fishes.
18 He said, Bring them hither
to me.
19 And He commanded the multitude to sit down on
the grass, and took the five loaves, and the two
fishes, and looking up to Heaven, He blessed, and
brake, and gave the loaves to His disciples, and the
disciples to the multitude.
20 And they did all eat,
and were filled: and they took up of the fragments
that remained twelve baskets full.
21 And they that had
eaten were about five thousand men, beside women and
children.
He did the same thing later and fed another 4000:
Matthew 15:32-33
32 Then Jesus called His disciples unto Him, and said, I have
compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me
now three days, and have nothing to eat: and I will not send
them away fasting, lest they faint in the way.
33 And His
disciples say unto Him, Whence should we have so much bread
in the wilderness, as to fill so great a multitude?
Those who saw when Jesus fed the 5000, actually questioned Him as to how the 4000 would be fed. They actually saw the miracle and forgot. Jesus
would later have to address this issue:
Matthew 16:6-10
6 Then Jesus said unto them, Take heed and beware of
the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.
7 And they reasoned among themselves, saying, It is
because we have taken no bread.
8 Which when Jesus
perceived, he said unto them, O ye of little faith,
why reason ye among yourselves, because ye have
brought no bread?
9 Do ye not yet understand, neither
remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and
how many baskets ye took up?
10 Neither the seven
loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets ye
took up?
