• 14 If ye are reproached for the name of Christ, blessed {cf15i are ye}; because the {cf15i Spirit} of glory and the Spirit of God resteth upon you.
• 15 For let none of you suffer as a murderer, or a thief, or an evil-doer, or as a meddler in other men-s matters:
• 16 but if {cf15i a man suffer} as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God in this name.
• 17 For the time {cf15i is come} for judgment to begin at the house of God: and if {cf15i it begin} first at us, what {cf15i shall be} the end of them that obey not the gospel of God?
• 18 And if the righteous is scarcely saved, where shall the ungodly and sinner appear?
• 19 Wherefore let them also that suffer according to the will of God commit their souls in well-doing unto a faithful Creator.

Jude 1:10

• 10 But these rail at whatsoever things they know not: and what they understand naturally, like the creatures without reason, in these things are they destroyed.

Acts 18:6

• 6 And when they opposed themselves, and blasphemed, he shook his raiment, and said to them, Your blood be on your own heads; I am clean; from now on I will go to the Gentiles.

1 Peter 4:1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19

• 1 For as much then as Christ has suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind: for he that has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin;
• 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.
• 3 For the time past of our life may suffice us to have worked the will of the Gentiles, when we walked in lasciviousness, lusts, excess of wine, revelings, parties, and abominable idolatries:
• 4 Wherein they think it strange that you run not with them to the same excess of riot, speaking evil of you:
• 5 Who shall give account to him that is ready to judge the quick and the dead.
• 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.
• 7 But the end of all things is at hand: be you therefore sober, and watch to prayer.
• 8 And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.
• 9 Use hospitality one to another without grudging.
• 10 As every man has received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.
• 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 gives: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
• 12 Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened to you:
• 13 But rejoice, inasmuch as you are partakers of Christ's sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, you may be glad also with exceeding joy.
• 14 If you be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are you; for the spirit of glory and of God rests on you: on their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified.
• 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.
• 16 Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf.
• 17 For the 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?
• 18 And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?
• 19 Why let them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to him in well doing, as to a faithful Creator.

Jude 1:10

• 10 But these speak evil of those things which they know not: but what they know naturally, as brute beasts, in those things they corrupt themselves.

Acts 18:6

• 6 When they opposed him and reviled him, he protested by shaking out his clothes and said to them, "Your blood be on your own heads! I am guiltless! From now on I will go to the Gentiles!"

1 Peter 4:1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19

• 1 So, since Christ suffered in the flesh, you also arm yourselves with the same attitude, because the one who has suffered in the flesh has finished with sin,
• 2 in that he spends the rest of his time on earth concerned about the will of God and not human desires.
• 3 For the time that has passed was sufficient for you to do what the non-Christians desire. You lived then in debauchery, evil desires, drunkenness, carousing, drinking bouts, and wanton idolatries.
• 4 So they are astonished when you do not rush with them into the same flood of wickedness, and they vilify you.
• 5 They will face a reckoning before Jesus Christ who stands ready to judge the living and the dead.
• 6 Now it was for this very purpose that the gospel was preached to those who are now dead, so that though they were judged in the flesh by human standards they may live spiritually by God's standards.
• 7 For the culmination of all things is near. So be self-controlled and sober-minded for the sake of prayer.
• 8 Above all keep your love for one another fervent, because love covers a multitude of sins.
• 9 Show hospitality to one another without complaining.
• 10 Just as each one has received a gift, use it to serve one another as good stewards of the varied grace of God.
• 11 Whoever speaks, let it be with God's words. Whoever serves, do so with the strength that God supplies, so that in everything God will be glorified through Jesus Christ. To him belong the glory and the power forever and ever. Amen.
• 12 Dear friends, do not be astonished that a trial by fire is occurring among you, as though something strange were happening to you.
• 13 But rejoice in the degree that you have shared in the sufferings of Christ, so that when his glory is revealed you may also rejoice and be glad.
• 14 If you are insulted for the name of Christ, you are blessed, because the Spirit of glory, who is the Spirit of God, rests on you.
• 15 But let none of you suffer as a murderer or thief or criminal or as a troublemaker.
• 16 But if you suffer as a Christian, do not be ashamed, but glorify God that you bear such a name.
• 17 For it is time for judgment to begin, starting with the house of God. And if it starts with us, what will be the fate of those who are disobedient to the gospel of God?
• 18 And if the righteous are barely saved, what will become of the ungodly and sinners?
• 19 So then let those who suffer according to the will of God entrust their souls to a faithful Creator as they do good.

Jude 1:10

• 10 But these men do not understand the things they slander, and they are being destroyed by the very things that, like irrational animals, they instinctively comprehend.

Acts 18:6

• 6 But they disagreed with what Paul was teaching and started insulting him. So Paul shook the dust from his clothes. He said to them, "If you are not saved, it will be your own fault! I have done all I can do. After this I will go only to the non-Jewish people."

1 Peter 4:1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19

• 1 Christ suffered while he was in his body. So you should strengthen yourselves with the same kind of thinking Christ had. The one who accepts suffering in this life has clearly decided to stop sinning.
• 2 Strengthen yourselves so that you will live your lives here on earth doing what God wants, not the evil things that people want to do.
• 3 In the past you wasted too much time doing what those who don't know God like to do. You were living immoral lives, doing the evil things you wanted to do. You were always getting drunk, having wild drinking parties, and doing shameful things in your worship of idols.
• 4 Now those "friends" think it is strange that you no longer join them in all the wild and wasteful things they do. And so they say bad things about you.
• 5 But they will have to face God to explain what they have done. He is the one who will soon judge everyone—those who are still living and those who have died.
• 6 Some were told the Good News before they died. They were criticized by others in their life here on earth. But it was God's plan that they hear the Good News so that they could have a new life through the Spirit.
• 7 The time is near when all things will end. So keep your minds clear, and control yourselves. This will help you in your prayers.
• 8 Most important of all, love each other deeply, because love makes you willing to forgive many sins.
• 9 Open your homes to each other and share your food without complaining.
• 10 God has shown you his grace in many different ways. So be good servants and use whatever gift he has given you in a way that will best serve each other.
• 11 If your gift is speaking, your words should be like words from God. If your gift is serving, you should serve with the strength that God gives. Then it is God who will be praised in everything through Jesus Christ. Power and glory belong to him forever and ever. Amen.
• 12 My friends, don't be surprised at the painful things that you are now suffering, which are testing your faith. Don't think that something strange is happening to you.
• 13 But you should be happy that you are sharing in Christ's sufferings. You will be happy and full of joy when Christ shows his glory.
• 14 When people say bad things to you because you follow Christ, consider it a blessing. When that happens, it shows that God's Spirit, the Spirit of glory, is with you.
• 15 You may suffer, but don't let it be because you murder, steal, make trouble, or try to control other people's lives.
• 16 But if you suffer because you are a "Christ follower," don't be ashamed. You should praise God for that name.
• 17 It is time for judging to begin. That judging will begin with God's family. If it begins with us, then what will happen to those who don't accept the Good News of God?
• 18 "If it is hard for even a good person to be saved, what will happen to the one who is against God and full of sin?"
• 19 So if God wants you to suffer, you should trust your lives to him. He is the one who made you, and you can trust him. So continue to do good.

Jude 1:10

• 10 But these people criticize things they don't understand. They do understand some things. But they understand these things not by thinking, but by feeling, the way dumb animals understand things. And these are the things that destroy them.

Acts 18:6

• 6 But they worked against Paul and said bad things about him. He shook his clothes and said, "Whatever happens to you is your own doing. I am free from your guilt. From now on I will go to the people who are not Jews."

1 Peter 4:1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19

• 1 Since Christ has suffered in His body, we must be ready to suffer also. Suffering puts an end to sin.
• 2 You should no longer spend the rest of your life giving in to the sinful desires of the flesh. But do what God wants as long as you live in this world.
• 3 In the past you gave enough of your life over to living like the people who do not know God. You gave your life to sex sins and to sinful desires. You got drunk and went to wild parties and to drinking parties and you worshiped false gods.
• 4 Those who do not know God are surprised you do not join them in the sinful things they do. They laugh at you and say bad things against you.
• 5 Remember, they will give an answer to Him Who judges all who are living or dead.
• 6 For this reason, the Good News was preached to the dead. They stood in the flesh before the One Who judges so they might live in the Spirit as God wants.
• 7 The end of the world is near. You must be the boss over your mind. Keep awake so you can pray.
• 8 Most of all, have a true love for each other. Love covers many sins.
• 9 Be happy to have people stay for the night and eat with you.
• 10 God has given each of you a gift. Use it to help each other. This will show God's loving-favor.
• 11 If a man preaches, let him do it with God speaking through him. If a man helps others, let him do it with the strength God gives. So in all things God may be honored through Jesus Christ. Shining-greatness and power belong to Him forever. Let it be so.
• 12 Dear friends, your faith is going to be tested as if it were going through fire. Do not be surprised at this.
• 13 Be happy that you are able to share some of the suffering of Christ. When His shining-greatness is shown, you will be filled with much joy.
• 14 If men speak bad of you because you are a Christian, you will be happy because the Spirit of shining-greatness and of God is in you.
• 15 None of you should suffer as one who kills another person or as one who steals or as one who makes trouble or as one who tries to be the boss of other peoples' lives.
• 16 But if a man suffers as a Christian, he should not be ashamed. He should thank God that he is a Christian.
• 17 The time has come for Christians to stand before God and He will judge. If this happens to us, what will happen to those who do not obey the Good News of God?
• 18 If it is hard for a man who is right with God to be saved, what will happen to the sinner?
• 19 So if God wants you to suffer, give yourself to Him. He will do what is right for you. He made you and He is faithful.

Jude 1:10

• 10 But these men speak against things they do not understand. They are like animals in the way they act. By these things they destroy themselves.

Acts 18:6

• 6 But they would not accept Paul's teaching and said some evil things. So he shook off the dust from his clothesn and said to them, "If you are not saved, it will be your own fault! I have done all I can do! After this, I will go only to those who are not Jewish."

1 Peter 4:1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19

• 1 Since Christ suffered while he was in his body, strengthen yourselves with the same way of thinking Christ had. The person who has suffered in the body is finished with sin.
• 2 Strengthen yourselves so that you will live here on earth doing what God wants, not the evil things people want.
• 3 In the past you wasted too much time doing what nonbelievers enjoy. You were guilty of sexual sins, evil desires, drunkenness, wild and drunken parties, and hateful idol worship.
• 4 Nonbelievers think it is strange that you do not do the many wild and wasteful things they do, so they insult you.
• 5 But they will have to explain this to God, who is ready to judge the living and the dead.
• 6 For this reason the Good News was preached to those who are now dead. Even though they were judged like all people, the Good News was preached to them so they could live in the spirit as God lives.
• 7 The time is near when all things will end. So think clearly and control yourselves so you will be able to pray.
• 8 Most importantly, love each other deeply, because love will cause many sins to be forgiven.
• 9 Open your homes to each other, without complaining.
• 10 Each of you has received a gift to use to serve others. Be good servants of God's various gifts of grace.
• 11 Anyone who speaks should speak words from God. Anyone who serves should serve with the strength God gives so that in everything God will be praised through Jesus Christ. Power and glory belong to him forever and ever. Amen.
• 12 My friends, do not be surprised at the terrible trouble which now comes to test you. Do not think that something strange is happening to you.
• 13 But be happy that you are sharing in Christ's sufferings so that you will be happy and full of joy when Christ comes again in glory.
• 14 When people insult you because you follow Christ, you are blessed, because the glorious Spirit, the Spirit of God, is with you.
• 15 Do not suffer for murder, theft, or any other crime, nor because you trouble other people.
• 16 But if you suffer because you are a Christian, do not be ashamed. Praise God because you wear that name.
• 17 It is time for judgment to begin with God's family. And if that judging begins with us, what will happen to those people who do not obey the Good News of God?
• 18 "If it is very hard for a good person to be saved, the wicked person and the sinner will surely be lost!"
• 19 So those who suffer as God wants should trust their souls to the faithful Creator as they continue to do what is right.
