Persecution is inevitable for the Christian, but don’t let it be because you’re acting ungraciously with unbelievers. Do good. Share about the faith that gives you hope, and do it with gentleness and respect.
Under Pressure - Instructions For God's People: Whether it is overt persecution or subtle pressures, Christians have always faced trials in this world, and our culture is no exception. The book of 1 Peter offers us encouragement by reminding us of our identity as chosen sojourners and commending us to continue to do good.
