1 Peter 4:16

1PE 4:16¹⁶Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf. (1 Peter 4:16)

Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed.

1 Peter 4:16¹⁶Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf. (1 Peter 4:16)

In Acts 5 the apostles preached even though they had been told not to. They were arrested, questioned, beaten, and told not to preach again. It says in verse 41 that “they departed . . . rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for His name.” That’s suffering as a Christian - something not to be ashamed of. May we be like those early Christians.
