[13] And who is he who will harm you if you become followers of what is good? [14] But even if you should suffer for righteousness' sake, you are blessed. "And do not be afraid of their threats, nor be troubled." [15] But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear; [16] having a good conscience, that when they defame you as evildoers, those who revile your good conduct in Christ may be ashamed. [17] For it is better, if it is the will of God, to suffer for doing good than for doing evil. (1 Peter 3:13-17 NKJV)
