Use 2 Secondly, for as much as contemptuous and reproachful scoffs and girds are such weapons as Satan putteth into the hands of his instruments, let us prepare for them, and arm our selves against them. Christs Disciples must not look to be above their master: if wicked sinners reviled and derided him, we must not imagine to escape their virulent and venomous tongues: and therefore the Apostle exhorteth us, that seeing he hath1 borne our reproach, we should bear his, and for the joy that is laid before us, endure the cross,2 and despise the shame, and so at length we shall receive the crown of glory, which is prepared for all those that in patience do wait for his glorious appearing.
