1 Peter 4:12-19

12 Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial among you, coming upon you unto your testing: as some strange thing happening to you: 13 but as you participate in the sufferings of Christ, rejoice; in order that you may also rejoice in the revelation of his glory, being glad. 14 If you suffer reproach in the name of Christ, happy are you, because the spirit of the glory and the spirit of God rest on you. 15 But let no one of you suffer as a murderer, or a thief, or an evil-doer, or as a meddler in other people's business: 16 but if as a Christian, be not ashamed, but glorify God in this name. 17 Because it is time that judgment should begin from the house of God: and if it is first from us, what shall be the end of those who obey not the gospel of God? 18 And if the righteous is scarcely saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear? 19 So let those indeed suffering according to the will of God submit their souls to the faithful Creator, in good work.
