1 Peter 4:15-17

New Life Version

¹⁵ None of you should suffer as one who kills another person or as one who steals or as one who makes trouble or as one who tries to be the boss of other peoples’ lives. ¹⁶ But if a man suffers as a Christian, he should not be ashamed. He should thank God that he is a Christian. ¹⁷ The time has come for Christians to stand before God and He will judge. If this happens to us, what will happen to those who do not obey the Good News of God?
