Verse 28

And in nothing affrighted by the adversaries: which is for them an evident token of perdition, but of your salvation, and that from God.

An evident token of perdition ... The thought here is that the fearlessness of the Christians would be an omen of perdition to the persecutors, and at the same time an evidence of their own salvation.

And that from God ... Only God could give them the fearlessness which Paul here enjoined; and some apply these words to their fearlessness; however, the proximity of "salvation" to the phrase indicates that it is their salvation which is here affirmed as coming "from God."
