It is pursued through an exegetical analysis of passages where Paul's suffering is described, namely 1:3-11; 2:14-116; 4:7-12; 6:1-10 and 11:23-12:10. By employing a narrative approach, this study argues that Paul's apostolic suffering is grounded in the story of Jesus. There are several implications arising from this approach. First, Paul understands his suffering as necessary and integral to his apostolic mission. Second, Paul claims that his suffering has positive missiological benefitLibrary of New Testament studies ;399.T & T Clark library of biblical studies.SufferingBiblical teachingSufferingBiblical teaching.227.306Lim Kar Yong1688086MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910811228703321"The sufferings of Christ are abundant in us" (2 Corinthians 1:5)4062059UNINA
