Spiritual suffering of disciples of Jesus stems from disciples being taught by the Spirit who is God and this makes us spiritually foreign to those not taught by Him. This strangeness to others makes each vulnerable to oppression, persecution and sometimes danger of harm from those in power - as Jesus too took endangerment from Pontius Pilate. But spirit help is at hand from the Angel of The Lord who encamps around those who fear Him and this is seen seldom better, as the Spirit testifies, than there in Daniel 3. Praise God.
