Morning
Let us go forth therefore to him outside the camp, bearing his
reproach. For here we have no continuing city, but we seek one to come.
Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to
try you, as though some strange thing happened to you: but rejoice,
seeing ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings; that, when his glory shall
be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy.--As ye are
partakers of the sufferings, so [shall ye be] also of the consolation.
If ye are reproached for the name of Christ, happy [are ye]; for the
spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you: on their part he is evil
spoken of, but on your part he is glorified.
They departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they
were counted worthy to suffer shame for his name.-- Choosing rather to
suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of
sin for a season; esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than
the treasures of Egypt: for he had respect to the recompence of the
reward.
