31 It is dreadful to fall into the hands of the living God.
32 But call to mind the former days, in which, after being enlightened, you endured a great struggle of afflictions.
33 And certainly, in one way, by insults and tribulations, you were made a spectacle, but in another way, you became the companions of those who were the object of such behavior.
34 For you even had compassion on those who were imprisoned, and you accepted with gladness being deprived of your goods, knowing that you have a better and more lasting substance.
35 And so, do not lose your confidence, which has a great reward.
