Hello friends Today I am writing on this topic: "Why do people suffer tribulation". Well! I know that this is one of the questions in the mind of a lot of Christians, why people including Christian suffer tribulation. This topic is so captivating, so I needed to write on it.
First let me say this: We are in the world, and in the world a lot of things happens, people faces problems here and there and sometimes they do not understand the reason why. But we will go deep into why people faces some tribulations and how we can live an Overcomer's life.

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________WHY PEOPLE FACES TRIBULATION
1: BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT OF THE WORLD
Jesus said that we are not of the world, and if the world hated Him They will also hate you: John 15:18-20. I thing this verse of the scripture should let you know that It doesn't matter who you are, I mean Jesus was completely faultless, but they hated him. He was completely of no sin, but they murdered him. They hated him for telling the truth. They hated him because the world doesn't love truth. And we are of the truth, and every child of truth is the child of light. Therefore, The world is a dark place. The people of the world doesn't love light. And truth is light. so being a child of truth means that you have already announced yourself has the child of light. So the same way the world hated Jesus of being the light, They will also hate you.
You should know that people hate truth, why? is because truth exposes the the lies of the wicked one, and shines the light into the darkness, which the enemy doesn't want that because the thrives in darkness and their works are evil: Ephesians 5:11. And so they hate you because you are not of evil, you are of light. You do not need to have anything to do with them. This is the number one reasons why people faces tribulations.
2: BECAUSE OF TRANSGRESSIONS
The number two reasons why people faces tribulation is because they engage themselves in transgression and sinful lives. The scripture says; Fools, because of their transgression are afflicted: Psalm 107:17. therefore, This scripture shows that most affliction Christians faces are caused by themselves. They bring afflictions upon themselves.
Now let's look at the case of the children of Israel, These people were stubborn and stiff-necked. And because of their stubbornness, they were afflicted and their journey to the promise land which should have been 11 days took them 40 years. Deuteronomy 1:2, why? because of their stubbornness.
So people gets afflicted most times because of their transgression. Now the scripture says: If they be bound in fetters and chords of afflictions, He showeth them their wrongs: Job36:8. This mean that Most people are afflicted because they have submerge themselves in to committing evil, and the scripture says that "what so ever a man soweth,that shall he reap",Galatians 6:7.
