Enduring Unfair Treatment

1 Peter 2:19-20

19 For this finds favor, if for the sake of conscience toward God a person bears up under sorrows when suffering unjustly. 20 For what credit is there if, when you sin and are harshly treated, you endure it with patience? But if when you do what is right and suffer for it you patiently endure it, this finds favor with God.

God is pleased with you when you endure unfair treatment—because you are keeping a good conscience toward God. But if you are treated harshly because of some sin, we must know that our harsh treatment is fair and is what we had coming.
