In Phil 3:1 tells us that joy is a "safeguard" for us, Nehemiah tells us that joy of the Lord is our "strength". If we don't joy while going through tribulation, then we can't be steadfast.<br/><br/>"Zoe" is the Greek word used for "life" that is related to the "eternal life".

It remembers others of the opposite of eternal life, without rubbing it into their faces (for people who can't take preaching about hell). I also never saw it this way, that Satan was given dominion over the spiritual realm. I did believe that Satan was given some kind of rule, but didn't really think about what he was given dominion over. Somehow I thought it was everything having to do with earth, natural and spiritual. But he does only have the spiritual, or else he could influence the natural realm in a more extreme way (after all, Satan can't change the laws of nature, only to the extent the spiritual realm allows this).<br/>I also never really thought of the soul as the "middle man" between the spirit and the body. Opens up a different perspective of things... Although I do wonder how you came to this conclusion by the scripture you quoted: "And how does Scripture tell us to strengthen our spirit in this suffering? By rejoicing!". Why by rejoicing? The scripture you quoted only says that we should rejoice because of sufferings because they will make us more steadfast. It's not telling us that it's the other way around, that the steadfastness results from rejoicing.<br/>What is the "zoe kind of life"?<br/><br/>Now, after reading more carefully, and even before reading it so carefully, this article has helped me in learning that I should trust God, that he can organize things, plan things for me, and I don't have to worry. He has everything laid out for me. My worrying doesn't really do anything to change/help this, it only makes me miss other parts of life, things I could have experienced. I've been learning this combined with a podcast of Joel Osteen I just watched and based on what has been happening to me these past few days, and probably my whole life. I should just trust God and go on with my life the best I can, doing what I think is right, what I think God wants me to do.<br/>Thank you for being such a great friend, Sid!
