TSK · James 1:2

Blessed are they which suffer persecution for righteousnes sake: for theirs is the kingdome of heauen.

So they departed from the Councill, reioycing, that they were counted worthy to suffer rebuke for his Name.

Who shall separate vs from the loue of Christ? shall tribulation or anguish, or persecution, or famine, or nakednesse, or perill, or sworde?

For vnto you it is giuen for Christ, that not onely ye should beleeue in him, but also suffer for his sake,

For the same cause also be ye glad, and reioyce with me.

For both ye sorowed with mee for my bonds, and suffered with ioy the spoyling of your goods, knowing in your selues howe that ye haue in heauen a better, and an enduring substance.

Blessed is ye man, that endureth tentation: for when he is tried, hee shall receiue the crowne of life, which the Lorde hath promised to them that loue him.

But reioyce, in asmuch as ye are partakers of Christs suffrings, that when his glory shall appeare, ye may be glad and reioyce.

Feare none of those things, which thou shalt suffer: beholde, it shall come to passe, that the deuill shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tryed, and ye shall haue tribulation tenne dayes: be thou faithfull vnto the death, and I will giue thee the crowne of life.
