Ya, and guess who else has faced persecution and trials?
Jews, women, blacks, LGBT people, Commies, Muslims, murderers, rapists, Liberals, Conservatives, dictators, Nazis, politicans, slaves, thieves, children, sluts, pro athletes, Hindus, denominations of Christians, Buddhists, etc.
Do you see where this is going? Practically EVERYONE faces persecution at some point in their life, regardless of actions and beliefs, good or bad.
Jesus' prediction of the persecution of his followers was like predicting that the sun would rise again.
