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 benefit 410 0$aLibrary of New Testament studies ;$v399. 410 0$aT & T Clark library of biblical studies. 606 $aSuffering$xBiblical teaching 615 0$aSuffering$xBiblical teaching. 676 $a227.306 700 $aLim$b Kar Yong$01688086 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910811228703321 996 $a"The sufferings of Christ are abundant in us" (2 Corinthians 1:5)$94062059 997 $aUNINA
