One drawback of the short gospel of salvation messages Christians often give
out is the failure to mention the hardships Christians suffer for faith in
Jesus, although not all of us to the same degree. We do know that ALL who
live godly in Christ SHALL BE persecuted. (2Timothy 3:12)

Tumults for obedient, Bible-believing Christians:
(John 15:18-19)

Loss of property, wealth.(Mat 4:8-10; Luke 4:5-7)
Loss of physical comforts (Luke 9:58, Matthew 27:34)
Loss of health (Luke 23:26)
Physical injury (John 19:11)
Tortures and murder (John 19:2, Mark 15:25)
Persecution (Matthew 27:1)
Imprisonment (Matthew 26:57)
Loss of physical freedom (Mark 14:26)
Abandonment by friends (Mark 14:50; Luke 22:61-62)
and family (Mat 14:34-37)
Mockings (Matthew 7:41-44)
Scoffings (Matthew 27:39-40)
Spittings (Matthew 26:67; 27:30)
Workplace discrimination (Matthew 27:1)
Ostracism (Matthew 27:25)
False accusations (Luke 23:2)
