1 Peter 4

Posted by mark

1 Peter 4: 1-11 reminds me to pay attention to the source for my living. Live as to God, not as to my human passions. Christ suffered for me, and I should think the same way He did, living for the will of God. The 2nd half (12-19) says I should be as joyful about trials as I am will when Christ is glorified. That is tough. I take them better than I used to (and sometimes not). But I’m usually not as joyful as I think I will be when Christ returns. He also states it is better to suffer for doing good, than to suffer for doing bad.
