32
Don't ever forget those early days when you first learned about Christ. Remember how you remained faithful even though it meant terrible suffering.
33
Sometimes you were exposed to public ridicule and were beaten, and sometimes you helped others who were suffering the same things.
34
You suffered along with those who were thrown into jail. When all you owned was taken from you, you accepted it with joy. You knew you had better things waiting for you in eternity.
35
Do not throw away this confident trust in the Lord, no matter what happens. Remember the great reward it brings you!
