"If so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together." We cannot be children of God without suffering with Christ. But the measure of our suffering with Him will entirely depend upon the degree in which we are under the governance and power of the Holy Ghost. A child of God who is walking faithfully before God with an ungrieved Spirit will thus suffer with Christ more than one who is walking carelessly.... But it should never be forgotten that the suffering as well as the glory is with Christ. This blessed companionship is never wanting.
