"We have witnessed many wonders since the creation, but the voluntary suffering of men for the Lord and for their fellow men is the greatest wonder of all. We [angels], too, must fight and even suffer at times, but we dwell where there is such light and glory that it is very easy to do this.
When we see men and women choose to suffer for a hope they can see only dimly in their hearts, it causes even the greatest angels to bow their knee and gladly serve those heirs of salvation. We marvel at the dedication of you who dwell, with so little encouragement, in a place of such darkness and evil.
At first, we did not understand why the Father decreed that men would have to walk by faith-- suffering great opposition while not having the benefit of beholding the reality and the glories of the heavenly realm. But now, we understand that through these sufferings, He proves their worthiness to receive the great authority that they will be given as members of His own household.
This walk of faith is now the greatest wonder in heaven. those who pass this test are worthy to sit with the lamb on His throne, for He has made them worthy and they have proven their love."
