That Christ should SUFFER, and that He should be the first that should rise from the dead, and should show light unto the people, and to the Gentiles. (Acts 26:23)
Those things, which God before had showed by the mouth of all His prophets, that Christ should SUFFER, He hath so fulfilled. (Acts 3:18)
It became Him, for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons unto glory, to make the Captain of their salvation perfect through SUFFERINGS. (Heb. 2:10)
O Lord! Thou now art risen;
   Thy travail all is o’er;
For sin Thou once hast suffered —
   Thou livest to die no more;
Sin, death and hell are vanquished
   By Thee, the church’s Head;
And lo! we share Thy triumphs,
   Thou firstborn from the dead.
