CH 3, ¶5

The following scriptural histories record Christ foretelling that his followers will be persecuted: Matthew states that the followers of Christ will be afflicted for the sake of Christ. Mark states that persecutions will arise for the sake of Christ’s word. Luke states that the persecution will come from family and friends, and may end in death. John states that the persecution will come from unbelievers, and that Christ is foretelling this for the instruction of his followers. (Badley)
