How do we know that persecution is part of the Christian experience?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible assures Christians that persecution will be a reality for true disciples.

Christ predicted the persecution of His followers in Luke 21:12-17, stating that they would be put in prison, betrayed, and hated for His name’s sake. This prophecy not only applied to the first disciples but extends through every age of the Church. Historical accounts, including those in the Book of Acts, corroborate the continual fulfillment of this prediction, reaffirming that true Christians will always face opposition in a world that rejects the gospel.
