from A Transforming Word · host Pastor Bill Buffington
Have you ever seen someone jump to the conclusion that hardship must be punishment for hidden sin? Today, Pastor Bill warns against that quick, judgmental leap. When somebody is going through a hard time, you don’t want to be the Christian who immediately assumes, “You must have some sin in your life. I knew something wasn’t right.” That kind of response treats suffering like superstition, as if every breakdown, delay, or trial is a direct divine smackdown for secret wrongdoing.
