Bebe's interpretation
Have you suffered rejection or hate simply because you have differing beliefs from others? Have you been publicly or secretly persecuted because of your faith? During the Bible days, believers were severely persecuted for professing Jesus as Lord and Savior. They were punished, hated, and threatened. Some were even martyred all for the sake of the gospel. This was done to make them deny their faith and turn back from following the Lord. Similar acts of persecution have risen against believers all over the world.
There are a lot of events around us that mount pressure on believers to withdraw their faith and stop being followers of Christ. We are tempted every day to sin against God. Nations make laws and policies that make life difficult and miserable, which might lead one to sin for survival. Each day comes with its own woes. However, it is up to us to decide whether we will succumb to the pressure to sin or choose to remain in solidarity with Christ. 
A life of pain and hardship would not be easy, but those who endured them with patience will be saved for eternity.
