8 When are we Persecuted? When we fast and people say things When we stand up against cursing, lying, or other sins When we choose not to have a boyfriend or girlfriend When we don’t go to parties or go to games on Sunday that take us away from church When we get made fun of for loving those who have no one else

9 What is the reward? When they had called for the apostles and beaten them, they commanded that they should not speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go. So they departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for His [d] name. And daily in the temple, and in every house, they did not cease teaching and preaching Jesus as the Christ. Acts 5:40d

10 Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ’s sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong. 2 Corinthians 12:10
