Honored to Suffer Shame in Jesus' Name

Acts 5:41. Christians should think of it as an honor to be criticize, ridiculed, and shamed for speaking the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Their reaction to the Christian gospel is one of hate.

Jesus Was Shamed By Man But Is Honored By God

Hebrews 12:2. Expressing your views as a Christian can be a humiliating process. Many people are quite hateful of Christian views on such topics as sex, marriage, temperance, recreational drugs, meaning of life, and even money.
