Enduring Suffering Together as Christians


Study 18

“Suffering for the Gospel's Sake”


1st Peter chapter 3 verses 13 to 17


(13)  And who is he that will harm you, if ye be followers of that which is good?
(14)  But and if ye suffer for righteousness' sake, happy are ye: and be not afraid of their terror, neither be troubled;
(15)  But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:
(16)  Having a good conscience; that, whereas they speak evil of you, as of evildoers, they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good conversation in Christ.
(17)  For it is better, if the will of God be so, that ye suffer for well doing, than for evil doing.
