Passage: 1 Peter 4:12-19
Reflection Questions:
1. In this passage, the author seems to have a specific suffering in mind. Phrases such as “participate in the suffering of Christ”, “insulted because of the name of Christ”, and “suffer as a Christian” point not to any and all sufferings, but to the ones we face as believers of Jesus. Are you facing such suffering? If so, what are the sufferings?
2. In the passage, what are the reasons given for rejoicing in suffering for Christ?
