Matthew 10:22-25

22 aand you will be hated by all for my name’s sake. bBut the one who endures to the end will be saved. 23When they cpersecute you in one town, dflee to the next, for truly, I say to you, you will not have gone through all the towns of Israel ebefore the Son of Man comes.

24 f“A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant ▼
▼Greek bondservant; also verse 25
 above his master. 25It is enough for the disciple to be like his teacher, and the servant like his master. hIf they have called the master of the house Beelzebul, how much more will they malign ▼
▼Greek lacks  will they malign
 those of his household.

John 15:20

20Remember the word that I said to you: j‘A servant is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted me, kthey will also persecute you. lIf they kept my word, they will also keep yours.

John 16:33

33I have said these things to you, that min me you may have peace. nIn the world you will have otribulation. But ptake heart; qI have overcome the world.”

1 Thessalonians 2:14-15

▼The Greek word Ioudaioi can refer to Jewish religious leaders and others under their influence, who opposed the Christian faith in that time
 15 wwho killed both the Lord Jesus and xthe prophets, and drove us out, and displease God and yoppose all mankind

1 Thessalonians 3:4

4For when we were with you, we kept telling you beforehand that we were to suffer affliction, zjust as it has come to pass, and just as you know.

1 Peter 4:1

Stewards of God’s Grace

1Since therefore aaChrist suffered in the flesh, ▼

 acarm yourselves with the same way of thinking, for adwhoever has suffered in the flesh aehas ceased from sin,
