Foryou once were not a people

1 Peter 1 Peter 2:13 – 3:132:13 – 3:13
You wives, be submissive to your own husbands (3:1)
Servants, be submissive to your masters with all respect (2:18)
Husbands likewise, live with your wives in an understanding way (3:7)
Let all be harmonious, sympathetic, brotherly, kindhearted, and humble in spirit (3:8)
Submit yourselves for the Lord's sake to every human institution…
1 Peter 1 Peter 3:14-163:14-16
Andyou are blessed.
But even if you should suffer for the sake of righteousness…
do not fear their intimidation
Anddo not be troubled
Butsanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts, always being ready to make a defense to everyone who asks you to give an account for the hope that is in you, yet with gentleness and reverence;
Andkeep a good conscience so that in the thing in which you are slandered, those who revile your good behavior in Christ may be put to shame.
For Christ also died for sins once for all, the just for the unjust, in order that He might bring us to God, having been put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the spirit;
1 Peter 1 Peter 3:18-203:18-20
In which also…
He went and made proclamation to the spirits now in prison,
Who…
once were disobedient, when the patience of God kept waiting in the days of Noah, during the construction of the ark,
in which a few, that is, eight persons, were brought safely through the water.
The end of all things is at hand;
1 Peter 4:7-1 Peter 4:7-99
therefore…
be of sound judgment and sober spirit for the purpose of prayer.
Above all, keep fervent in your love for one another, because love covers a multitude of sins.
Be hospitable to one another without complaint.
Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery ordeal among you, which comes upon you for your testing, as though some strange thing were happening to you;
1 Peter 1 Peter 4:12-144:12-14
but to the degree that you share the sufferings of Christ, keep on rejoicing; so that also at the revelation of His glory, you may rejoice with exultation.
If you are reviled for the name of Christ, you are blessed, because the Spirit of glory and of God rests upon you.
For it is time for judgment to begin with the household of God; 1 Peter 1 Peter
4:17-194:17-19and
if it is with difficulty that the righteous is saved, what will become of the godless man and the sinner?
if it begins with us first, what will be the outcome for those who do not obey the gospel of God?
And
let those also who suffer according to the will of God entrust their souls to a faithful Creator in doing what is right.
Therefore
Therefore…1 Peter 5:1-1 Peter 5:1-
33I exhort the elders among you…
as your fellow elder and witness of the sufferings of Christ, and a partaker also of the glory that is to be revealed,
shepherd the flock of God among you, exercising oversight
and not for sordid gain, but with eagerness;
not under compulsion, but voluntarily, according to the will of God;
nor yet as lording it over those allotted to your charge, but proving to be examples to the flock.
You younger men, likewise1 Peter 5:5-1 Peter 5:5-
77and all of you,
be subject to your elders
clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, for God is opposed to the proud, but gives grace to the humble.
Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God,
casting all your anxiety upon Him, because He cares for you.
He may exalt you at the proper time,
that
Be of sober spirit, be on the alert. 1 Peter 5:8-1 Peter 5:8-
1010Your adversary, the devil, prowls about like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.
But resist him, firm in your faith,
knowing that the same experiences of suffering are being accomplished by your brethren who are in the world.
And after you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace, who called you to His eternal glory in Christ, will Himself perfect, confirm, strengthen and establish you.
