1 Peter 2:20-24

20Of course, you get no credit for being patient if you are beaten for doing wrong. But if you suffer for doing good and endure it patiently, God is pleased with you.

21For God called you to do good, even if it means suffering, just as Christ suffered for you. He is your example, and you must follow in his steps.

22He never sinned, nor ever deceived anyone.

23He did not retaliate when he was insulted, nor threaten revenge when he suffered. He left his case in the hands of God, who always judges fairly.

24He personally carried our sins in his body on the cross so that we can be dead to sin and live for what is right. By his wounds you are healed.
