1 Peter 4:12-16

12Dear friends, do not be astonished that a trial by fire is occurring among you, as though something strange were happening to you.

13But rejoice in the degree that you have shared in the sufferings of Christ, so that when his glory is revealed you may also rejoice and be glad.

14If you are insulted for the name of Christ, you are blessed, because the Spirit of glory, who is the Spirit of God, rests on you.

15But let none of you suffer as a murderer or thief or criminal or as a troublemaker.

16But if you suffer as a Christian, do not be ashamed, but glorify God that you bear such a name.
