“Who is going to harm you if you are eager to do good? But even if you should suffer for what is right, you are blessed. “Do not fear their threats; do not be frightened.””1 Peter 3:13-14
We shouldn’t hesitate or be scared of what others think-when we are eager to do good.
I Peter 4:8,9 Above all love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins. Offer hospitality to one another without grumbling.
1 Peter 4: God has blessed each one of us with spiritual gifts in order to use it to serve one another and to the glory of God. We should never use it to lord it over people and to our own glory (vv. 10-11).
I Peter 4: For it is time for judgment to begin with God’s household (v. 17)
We should not be suffering because of our will (4: 15), but should be suffering according to will of God (4:19) so that God will be Glorified in that suffering.
1Peter 4:8 “Above all, maintain constant love for one another, for love covers a multitude of sins.”
1 Peter 4 Verse 11: எல்லாவற்றிலேயும் இயேசுகிறிஸ்து மூலமாய் தேவன் மகிமைப்படும்படியே செய்வீர்களாக; அவருக்கே மகிமையும் வல்லமையும் சதாகாலங்களிலும் உண்டாயிருப்பதாக. ஆமென்.
எல்லாவற்றிற்கும் மேலாக ஒருவரிலொருவர் ஊக்கமான அன்புள்ளவர்களாயிருங்கள் அன்பு திரளான பாவங்களை மூடும் முறுமுறுப்பில்லாமல் ஒருவரையொருவர் உபசரியுங்கள்
[1 பேதுரு 4 : 8,9]
1 Peter 4 -(v8) Love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins.
-When we love others deeply and truly, it will prevent us from doing any wrong things or sins! In fact, it will make us perfect!
1Peter 4: 1 Therefore , 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 ,- Suffering in flesh: it need not be physical pain or injury. By staying away from sin, we control our body. I believe this is what Peter explains here as suffering in flesh.
