name amen
first Peter chapter 3 verse 1 it’s all
about your good life your good way of
life as Christians
there’s the duties of husbands and wives
there’s the duty of being consistent as
a Christian and all duties of husbands
and wives and consistency being
Christians reflect Christ’s sacrifice
reflect Christ’s sacrifice baptism is
also explained because it reflects
Christ’s sacrifice first Peter 3 verse 1
wives wives be ruled by your husbands so
that even if some of them give no
attention to the word their hearts may
be changed by the behavior of their
wives
when they see your holy behavior in the
fear of God do not let your ornaments be
those of the body such as dressing of
the hair or putting on of jewels of gold
or fair clothing but let them be those
of the unseen man of the heart the ever
shining the ever shining ornament of a
gentle and quiet spirit a gentle and
quiet spirit for wives wishes of great
price in the eyes of God and these were
the ornaments of the holy women of the
past
whose hope was in God being ruled by
their husbands as Sarah was ruled by
Abraham naming him Lord whose children
you are if you do well and are not put
in fear by any danger and you husband’s
give thought to your way of life which
arrives giving honor to the woman who is
the feebler vessel but who has an equal
part in the heritage of the grace of
life an equal part in the heritage of
the grace of life so that you may not be
kept from prayer last of all see that
you are all in agreement feeling for one
another loving one another like brothers
full of pity without pride not giving
back evil for evil or curse for curse
but in place of cursing blessing because
this is the purpose of God for you
this is the purpose of God for you that
you may have a heritage of blessing for
it is said led a man who has a love of
life desiring to see good days keep his
tongue from evil and his lips from words
of deceit let him be turned from evil
and do good searching for peace and
going after it with all his heart for
the eyes of the Lord are on the upright
and his ears are open to their prayers
but the face of the Lord is against
those who do evil who will do you any
damage who will do you any damage if you
keep your minds fixed on what is good
but you are happy if you undergo pain
because of righteousness have no part in
their fear and do not be trouble an
important one have no part in their fear
and do not be troubled but give honor to
Christ in your hearts as your Lord and
be ready at any time when you are
questioned about the hope which is in
you to give an answer in the fear of the
Lord and without pride being conscious
that you have done no wrong so that
those who say evil things about your
good way of life as Christians may be
put to shame because if it is God’s
purpose for you to undergo pain it is
better to do so for well doing than for
evil doing because Christ once went
through pain for sins the upright one
taking the place of sinners so that
through him we might come back to God
being put to death in the flesh but
given life in the spirit by whom he went
to the spirits in prison preaching to
those who in the days of Noah went
against God’s orders but God in His
mercy kept back the punishment why Noah
got ready the ark in which a small
number that is to say eight persons
God’s salvation through water and
baptism of which this is an image the
flood is an image of baptism for all
died in the flesh to be born again in
this spirit because the world was
repopulated remember and baptism of
which this is an image now gives you
salvation not by washing clean the flesh
but by making you free from the sense of
sin before God through the coming again
of Jesus Christ from the dead who has
gone into heaven and is at the right
hand of God angels and authorities and
powers having been put under his rule
blessed be our Lord who came a little
lower than the Angels yet with the
authority to rule over all blessed be
your Lord may you be always conscious
that you have done no wrong in living a
Christian life so that those who say
evil things about your good way of life
as Christians may be put to shame live a
good life a good way of life as
Christians honor one another love one
another do the Word of God and know that
baptism in the spirit was instituted a
long time ago from the times of Noah
when the old man all were sinning were
baptized and and evil was put away to
then be reborn the world was repopulated
afterwards for people are reborn in the
spirit so let us do that now Lord
forgive me forgive me for going after
the world forgive me for not seeing you
as the most important thing forgive me
Lord and come and be with me I open up
myself to you Lord come and be with me
love me be with me baptize me clean me
fill me with your spirit in my soul Lord
guide me teach me raise me up and give
me life eternal thank you Lord for
listening to my prayer Lord thank you
Jesus mighty name amen blessed
be our Lord amen
