“others were tortured… and others experienced mockings and scourgings, yes, also chains and imprisonment. They were stoned, they were sawn in two, they were tempted, they were put to death with the sword; they went about in sheepskins, in goatskins, being destitute, afflicted, ill-treated (men of whom the world was not worthy), wandering in deserts and mountains and caves and holes in the ground.”
Hebrews 11:35b-38

We deceive our Lord when we tell Him that the talents that He’s given us aren’t the ones that really build up the church anyway

“The owner of the vineyard said, ‘What shall I do? I will send my beloved son; perhaps they will respect him.” (v13)

“But when the vine-growers saw him, they reasoned with one another, saying, ‘This is the heir; let us kill him so that the inheritance will be ours.’ So they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him.”
(v14-15a)

“They threw him [the Son] out of the vineyard and killed him.”

“and so Jesus also suffered outside the city gate to make the people holy through his own blood. Let us, then, go to him outside the camp, bearing the disgrace He bore. For here we do not have an enduring city, but we are looking for the city that is to come.” (Hebrews 13:12-13)

“The stone which the builders rejected, this became the chief corner stone. Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces, but on whomever it falls, it will scatter him like dust.” (v17-18)

So many refuse to acknowledge Christ as the Son of God, but that doesn’t change the truth that He is.
