Does God Use Oppression to Teach Us?

Does God use oppression, bondage, sickness, or the powers of darkness to teach us something? In this teaching, Cameron explores an important distinction between God’s ability to bring good out of difficult circumstances and the idea that God causes or desires the oppression from which Jesus came to set us free.

Drawing on Jesus’ victory over sin, death, and Satan, this clip challenges assumptions about suffering, God’s character, and the purpose of spiritual freedom. It invites us to reconsider whether the things Jesus came to destroy are really the things God wants to use to shape us.
