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. 1 Peter 4:12-16, Godbey New Testament.
