Rev 1:9 "I, John, your brother and fellow partaker in the tribulation and kingdom and perseverance which are in Jesus, was on the island called Patmos because of the word of God and the testimony of Jesus."
I don't generally like to think of tribulation and perseverance as being necessary parts of a being a partaker in a kingdom. Not much choice, is there?
It is remarkable what they considered a normal Christian life.
