Read the transcript (PDF) Highlights for today’s episode: Importance of understanding scriptures in their context That it’s important to learn how to read the Bible properly. More of that here The context behind Romans 5:1-5 How this passage relates to LGBTQ Christians’ experiences with unsupportive churches Announcement: This will be the last episode to air on a Tuesday as we will be publishing our podcast episodes on Sundays starting June 23. Romans 5:1-5 By faith we have been made acceptable to God. And now, because of our Lord Jesus Christ, we live at peace with God. Christ has also introduced us to God’s undeserved kindness on which we take our stand. So we are happy, as we look forward to sharing in the glory of God. But that’s not all! We gladly suffer, because we know that suffering helps us to endure. And endurance builds character, which gives us a hope that will never disappoint us. All of this happens because God has given us the Holy Spirit, who fills our hearts with his love. Photo by Larm Rmah The post Holy Suffering – Romans 5:1-5 appeared first on Queer Theology.
