Matthew 10
English Standard Version (ESV)
Matthew 10
16 “Behold, I am sending you out as sheep in the midst of wolves, so be wise as serpents andinnocent as doves. 17 Beware of men, for they will deliver you over to courts and flog you in their synagogues, 18 and you will be dragged before governors and kings for my sake, to bear witness before them and the Gentiles. 19 When they deliver you over, do not be anxious how you are to speak or what you are to say, for what you are to say will be given to you in that hour. 20 For it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you. 21 Brother will deliver brother over to death, and the father his child, and children will rise against parents and have them put to death,22 and you will be hated by all for my name's sake. But the one who endures to the end will be saved.
23 When they persecute you in one town, flee to the next, for truly,
I say to you, you will not have gone through all the towns of Israel
before the Son of Man comes.
24 “A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his master.
25 It is enough for the disciple to be like his teacher,
and the servant like his master.
If they have called the master of the house Beelzebul,
how much more will they malign those of his household.
And also...
Matthew 5
10 “Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
11 “Blessed are you when others revile you and persecute you
and utter all kinds of evil
against you falsely on my account.
against you falsely on my account.
12 Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven,
for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
2 Corinthians 4
8 We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed;
perplexed, but not driven to despair;
9 persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down,
but not destroyed;
10 always carrying in the body the death of Jesus,
so that the life of Jesus may also be manifested in our bodies.
11 For we who live are always being given over to death for Jesus' sake,
so that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our mortal flesh.
1 Peter 4
12 Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery trial
when it comes upon you to test you,
as though something strange were happening to you.
as though something strange were happening to you.
13 But rejoice insofar as you share Christ's sufferings,
that you may also rejoice and be glad
when his glory is revealed.
14 If you are insulted for the name of Christ,
you are blessed, because the Spirit of glory
and of God rests upon you.
15 But let none of you suffer as a murderer
or a thief or an evildoer or as a meddler.
or a thief or an evildoer or as a meddler.
16 Yet if anyone suffers as a Christian,
let him not be ashamed,
but let him glorify God in that name.
Pray for Persecuted Christians!
