Of this obedience is that which our Saviour preached unto his Disciples in the Mount, Matth. 5. 10, 11, 12. Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness sake; for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven. Blessed are ye when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely for my sake. Rejoice and be exceeding glad; for great is your reward in Heaven: for so persecuted they the Prophets which were before you.

And Saint Peter exhorteth us unto the same, 1 Pet. 4. 12, 13, 14, 15, 16. Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial, which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you, but rejoice in as much as ye are partakers of Christs sufferings. If ye be reproached for the Name of Christ happy are ye. But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or as a thief, or as ⟨p. 16⟩an evil doer, or as a busy body in other mens matters. Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed.
