Podcast Summary
In this episode, John Calvin discusses the cross as a tool for both prevention and correction. We look at the analogy of the "refractory horse" to understand why God must curb our natural arrogance through discipline. Calvin also explains the "badge of honor" found in persecution, showing how earthly losses are transformed into heavenly gains. Finally, we distinguish between Christian patience and mere stoicism, noting that true fortitude is found not in being unfeeling, but in choosing to trust God's goodness even when the sting of pain is fully felt.
