12 Indeed, all who desire to live a mgodly life in Christ Jesus nwill be persecuted,
22 strengthening the souls of the disciples, encouraging them to continue in the faith, and saying that through many etribulations we must enter the kingdom of God.
3 Not only that, but we wrejoice in our sufferings, xknowing that suffering produces endurance,
35 Who shall separate us from the llove of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? 36 As it is written,
m“For your sake we are being killed nall the day long;
we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.”
33 I have said these things to you, that in me you may have kpeace. lIn the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have movercome the world.”
