1 Peter 3:13-14 Part 2 of 2

Who is going to harm you if you are eager to do good? But even if you should suffer for what is right, you are blessed. "Do not fear their threats; do not be frightened."  

But even if you should suffer for what is right, you are blessed 
1 Peter 3:17  For it is better, if it is God's will, to suffer for doing good than for doing evil.
1 Peter 2:19-20  For it is commendable if someone bears up under the pain of unjust suffering because they are conscious of God. But how is it to your credit if you receive a beating for doing wrong and endure it? But if you suffer for doing good and you endure it, this is commendable before God. 
1 Peter 4:15-17  If you suffer, it should not be as a murderer or thief or any other kind of criminal, or even as a meddler. However,if you suffer as a Christian, do not be ashamed, but praise God that you bear that name. For it is time for judgment to begin with God's household; and if it begins with us, what will the outcome be for those who do not obey the gospel of God? 

Do not fear their threats; do not be frightened 
Isaiah 8:12-13  "Do not call conspiracy everything this people calls a conspiracy; do not fear what they fear, and do not dread it. The LORD Almighty is the one you are to regard as holy, he is the one you are to fear, he is the one you are to dread."
