Christ’s Example to Be Followed

4Therefore, since Christ suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves also with the same mind, for he who has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin,G3767G5547G3958G5228G2257G4561G3695G5210G2532G846G1771G3754G3958G1722G4561G3973G266 2that he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh for the lusts of men, but for the will of God.G1519G980G3371G980G1954G5550G1722G4561G1939G444G235G2307G2316 3For we have spent enough of our past lifetime in doing the will of the Gentiles—when we walked in lewdness, lusts, drunkenness, revelries, drinking parties, and abominable idolatries.G1063G5550G3928G979G713G2254G2716G2307G1484G4198G1722G766G1939G3632G2970G4224G2532G111G1495 4In regard to these, they think it strange that you do not run with them in the same flood of dissipation, speaking evil of you.G1722G3739G3579G5216G4936G3361G1519G846G401G810G987 5They will give an account to Him who is ready to judge the living and the dead.G3739G591G3056G2192G2093G2919G2198G2532G3498 6For this reason the gospel was preached also to those who are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.G1063G1519G5124G2097G2532G3498G2443G2919G3303G2596G444G4561G1161G2198G2596G2316G4151

Serving for God’s Glory

7But the end of all things is at hand; therefore be serious and watchful in your prayers.G1161G5056G3956G1448G4993G3767G4993G2532G3525G1519G4335 8And above all things have fervent love for one another, for "love will cover a multitude of sins."G1161G4253G3956G2192G1618G26G1519G1438G3754G26G2572G4128G266 9Be hospitable to one another without grumbling.G5382G1519G240G427G1112 10As each one has received a gift, minister it to one another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.G2531G1538G2983G5486G1247G846G1519G1438G5613G2570G3623G4164G5485G2316 11If anyone speaks, let him speak as the oracles of God. If anyone ministers, let him do it as with the ability which God supplies, that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belong the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.G1536G2980G5613G3051G2316G1536G1247G5613G1537G2479G3739G2316G5524G2443G2316G1722G3956G1392G1223G2424G5547G3739G2076G1391G2532G2904G1519G165G165G281

Suffering for God’s Glory

12Beloved, do not think it strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened to you;G27G3579G3361G3579G5213G4451G1722G1096G4314G3986G5213G5613G3581G4819G5213 13but rejoice to the extent that you partake of Christ's sufferings, that when His glory is revealed, you may also be glad with exceeding joy.G235G5463G2526G2841G5547G3804G2443G1722G846G1391G602G5463G2532G21 14If you are reproached for the name of Christ, blessed are you, for the Spirit of glory and of God rests upon you. On their part He is blasphemed, but on your part He is glorified.G1487G3679G1722G3686G5547G3107G3754G4151G1391G2532G2316G373G1909G5209G2596G3303G846G987G1161G2596G5209G1392 15But let none of you suffer as a murderer, a thief, an evildoer, or as a busybody in other people's matters.G1063G3958G3361G5100G5216G3958G5613G5406G2228G2812G2228G2555G2228G5613G244 16Yet if anyone suffers as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God in this matter.G1161G1487G5613G5546G153G3361G153G1161G1392G2316G1722G5129G3313 17For the time has come for judgment to begin at the house of God; and if it begins with us first, what will be the end of those who do not obey the gospel of God?G3754G2540G2917G756G575G3624G2316G1161G1487G4412G575G2257G5101G5056G544G2098G2316 18Now "If the righteous one is scarcely saved, Where will the ungodly and the sinner appear?"G2532G1487G1342G3433G4982G4226G5316G765G2532G268G5316 19Therefore let those who suffer according to the will of God commit their souls to Him in doing good, as to a faithful Creator.G5620G2532G3908G3958G2596G2307G2316G3908G1438G5590G1722G16G5613G4103G2939
