1 Peter 4:14

Sharing The Sufferings Of Christ

¹³ But be glad that you are given a part in the pains of Christ; so that at the revelation of his glory you may have great joy. ¹⁴ If men say evil things of you because of the name of Christ, happy are you; for the Spirit of glory and of God is resting on you. ¹⁵ Let no one among you undergo punishment as a taker of life, or as a thief, or as an evil-doer, or as one who is over-interested in other men's business;

Blessed are
