1 Peter4:16

16 Yet if any man suffer as a Christian , let him not be ashamed , but let him glorify God on this behalf .

If his Christianity be his only Crime, and the cause of his Sufferings.

See 2 Tim. 2.12.

i. e. On the account of his Sufferings; let him bless God for keeping him from suffering as an Evil-doer, and for counting him worthy to suffer for Christ's sake, Acts 5.41. as well as for giving him Patience and Courage under Sufferings.
