6 Upon the wicked (godless) He will rain coals of fire; Fire and brimstone and a dreadful scorching wind will be the portion of their cup [of doom]. 7 For the LORD is [absolutely] righteous, He loves righteousness (virtue, morality, justice); The upright shall see His face.
The Bible encourages perseverance and faith. In 2 Corinthians 4:16-18, it states that though our outward self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed. We should not lose heart, as our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us. Stay strong in faith and hope!
“See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him. Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known. But we know that when Christ appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is. All who have this hope in him purify themselves,
Romans 8:15
15 The Spirit you received does not make you slaves, so that you live in fear again; rather, the Spirit you received brought about your adoption to sonship. And by him we cry, “Abba, Father.”
i hear the slander of many; Fear is on every side; While they take counsel together against me, They scheme to take away my life. But as for me, I trust in You, O LORD; I say, "You are my God." (Psa 31:13-14)

Mark 16:15–16 (ESV): 15 And he said to them, “Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation. 16 Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.
…Many believed in His name…but Jesus [for His part] did not trust Himself to them…for He Himself knew what was in human nature. [He could read men's hearts.]
John 2:23-25 (AMPC)
Matthew 11:28-30 - Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
But you say, 'If anyone says to his father or mother, "Whatever [money or resource that] I have that would help is [already dedicated and] given to God," he is not to honor his father or his mother [by helping them with their need]. So by this you have invalidated the word of God [depriving it of force and authority and making it of no effect] for the sake of your tradition [handed down by the elders].
