Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.
All Commentaries on 2 Timothy 3:12 Go To 2 Timothy 3
John Chrysostom
AD 407
If the road is narrow and difficult, how can it be that “My yoke is easy and my burden is light”? He says difficult because of the nature of the trials but easy because of the willingness of the travelers. It is possible for even what is unendurable by nature to become light when we accept it with eagerness. Remember that the apostles who had been scourged returned rejoicing that they had been found worthy to be dishonored for the name of the Lord.
