1 Peter 3:14-17 (King James Version)
14 But and if ye suffer for righteousness' sake, happy are ye: and be not afraid of their terror, neither be troubled; 15 But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear: 16 Having a good conscience; that, whereas they speak evil of you, as of evildoers, they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good conversation in Christ. 17 For it is better, if the will of God be so, that ye suffer for well doing, than for evil doing.
2 Corinthians 1:5 (King James Version)
5 For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also aboundeth by Christ.
1 Peter 5:10 (King James Version)
10 But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.
2 Timothy 2:12 (King James Version)
12 If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us:
1 Peter 4:12&13 (King James Version)
12 Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you: 13 But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy.
Romans 5:3 (King James Version)
3 And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience;
Romans 8:18 (King James Version)
18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
