1 Peter 4
|
- 4:1 Forasmuch then
as
Christ hath
suffered
for
us in the
flesh,
arm
yourselves
likewise with the
same
mind:
for he that hath
suffered
in the
flesh hath
ceased from
sin;
|
- 4:2
That
he no
longer should
live the
rest of his
time
in the
flesh to the
lusts of
men,
but to the
will of
God.
|
- 4:3
For the
time
past of our
life may
suffice
us to have
wrought the
will of the
Gentiles, when we
walked
in
lasciviousness,
lusts, excess of
wine,
revellings,
banquetings,
and
abominable
idolatries:
|
- 4:4
Wherein
they think it
strange that
ye
run
not with them
to the
same
excess of
riot, speaking evil
of you:
|

Who shall
give
account to him that
is
ready to
judge the
quick
and the
dead.
|
- 4:6
For
for this
cause was the gospel
preached
also to them that are
dead,
that they might be
judged
* according
to
men in the
flesh,
but
live according
to
God in the
spirit.
|
- 4:7

end of all
things is at
hand: be
ye
therefore
sober,
and
watch
unto
prayer.

above all
things
have
fervent
charity
among
yourselves:

sins.

another
*
without

man hath
received the
gift, even so

another
*,
as
good
stewards of the
manifold
grace of

|
- 4:11 If any
man
speak, let him speak
as the
oracles of
God; if any
man
minister, let him do it
as
of the
ability
which
God
giveth:
that
God
in all
things may be
glorified
through
Jesus
Christ, to
whom
be
praise
and
dominion
for
ever and
ever.
Amen.
|
- 4:12
Beloved, think
it
not
strange concerning
the fiery
trial
which
is
to
try
you,
as though some strange
thing
happened unto
you:
|
- 4:13
But
rejoice, inasmuch
as ye are
partakers of
Christ's
sufferings;
that,
when
his
glory shall be
revealed, ye may be
glad
also with exceeding
joy.
|
- 4:14
If ye be
reproached
for the
name of
Christ,
happy are ye;
for the
spirit of
glory
and of
God
resteth
upon
you:
on
their
part he is evil spoken
of,
but
on your
part he is
glorified.
|
- 4:15
But
let
none
of
you
suffer
as a
murderer,
or as a
thief,
or as an
evildoer,
or
as a busybody in other men's
matters.
|
- 4:16
Yet
if any man suffer
as a
Christian, let
him
not be
ashamed;
but let him
glorify
God
on
this
behalf.

time is come that
judgment must
begin
at the
house of
God:
and
if it
first begin
at
us,
what shall the
end be of them that obey
not the
gospel of
God?
|

if the
righteous
scarcely be
saved,
where
shall the
ungodly
and the
sinner
appear ?

Wherefore
*
let them that
suffer according
to the
will of
God commit the
keeping of
their
souls to him
in well
doing,
as unto a
faithful
Creator.
