Berean Standard Bible
Forasmuch
then
as
Christ suffered in the
flesh
, arm ye
yourselves also
with the same mind;
for
he
that
hath
suffered in the
flesh
hath
ceased
from
sin ;
Therefore,
since
Christ suffered in His
body
, arm yourselves with the same resolve,
because
anyone
who
has
suffered in his
body
is
done
with
sin .
that
ye
no
longer
should
live the
rest
of
your
time in
flesh
to
the
lusts
of
men
, but to
the will of God.
Consequently,
he
does
not
live out
his
remaining
time on
earth
for
human
passions
, but for
the will of God.
For the
time past may
suffice
to
have
wrought
the desire
of
the Gentiles ,
and
to
have
walked
in lasciviousness
, lusts
, winebibbings
, revellings
, carousings
, and abominable
idolatries:
For you
have
spent
enough
time in
the
past carrying
out
the same
desires
as
the Gentiles :
living
in debauchery
, lust
, drunkenness
, orgies
, carousing
, and detestable
idolatry.
wherein
they think
strange that
ye
run
not with `
them '
into the same excess
of riot
, speaking
evil
of
`of':
Because
of
this,
they consider
it
strange of
you
not to
plunge
with them into the same flood
of reckless
indiscretion
, and
they
heap
abuse
on
you.
who
shall
give account to him that
is ready to judge the living and the dead.
But
they
will
have
to
give an
account to Him who
is ready to judge the living and the dead.
For
unto
this
end
was
the gospel preached even to the
dead, that they might be judged indeed
according
to
men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.
That
is
why
the gospel was
preached even to those
who
are
now
dead, so
that they might be judged as
men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.
But
the end of all things is at
hand:
be
ye
therefore of
sound
mind,
and
be sober unto
prayer:
The end of all things is near.
Therefore be clear-minded
and
sober ,
so
that
you
can
pray.
above all things
being
fervent
in
your
love among
yourselves;
for
love covereth
a multitude of sins :
Above all ,
love one
another
deeply,
because
love covers
over
a multitude of sins .
using
hospitality one
to another without murmuring:

hospitality to one
another without complaining.
according
as each
hath
received
a
gift,
ministering
it
among
yourselves,
as
good stewards of the manifold grace of God ;
As good stewards of the manifold grace of God ,
each
of
you
should
use
whatever
gift
he
has
received
to
serve
one
another.
if any
man
speaketh
, `speaking'
as it
were
oracles
of God ;
is
any
man
ministereth
, `ministering'
as
of
the strength which
God supplieth:
that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, whose
is
the glory and the dominion
for
ever
and ever. Amen.
If anyone
speaks
, he
should
speak
as one
conveying
the
words
of God .
If
anyone
serves
, he
should
serve
with
the strength God provides,
so
that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to
whom
be
the glory and the power
forever
and ever. Amen.
Beloved, think
it
not strange
concerning
the fiery trial among
you,
which
cometh
upon you to
prove
you
, as though a
strange thing
happened
unto
you :
Beloved, do
not be
surprised
at
the fiery trial that
has
come
upon you, as though something
strange were
happening
to
you .
but insomuch
as
ye
are
partakers
of
Christ's
sufferings, rejoice;
that at the revelation of his glory also
ye
may
rejoice
with
exceeding
joy
.
But rejoice
that
you
share
in
the
sufferings of
Christ
, so
that you
may
be
overjoyed
at the revelation of His glory.
If ye
are reproached
for the name of Christ, blessed
`
are ye';
because the `
Spirit '
of glory and the
Spirit
of God resteth
upon
you.
If you
are insulted
for the name of Christ, you
are blessed,
because the Spirit of glory and of God rests
on
you.
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:
Indeed,
none of you should
suffer as a murderer or thief or wrongdoer
, or even
as a meddler .
but if `a
man
suffer '
as a Christian, let
him
not be ashamed ;
but let
him
glorify God in
this
name.
But if you
suffer as a Christian, do
not be ashamed ,
but glorify God that
you
bear
that
name.
For the
time
`
is come'
for judgment to begin at
the house
of God :
and if `
it begin'
first
at
us, what `shall
be'
the end
of
them
that
obey
not
the gospel of God?
For it
is time
for judgment to begin with
the family
of God ;
and if it begins
with
us, what will
the outcome
be
for
those
who
disobey
the gospel of God?
And if the righteous is
scarcely
saved, where
shall
the ungodly and sinner appear
?
And ,
“
If it
is
hard
for
the righteous to
be
saved, what
will
become
of
the ungodly and the
sinner? ”
Wherefore
let
them
also
that
suffer according to the
will of
God
commit
their souls in
well-doing
unto
a
faithful Creator.
So
then,
those
who
suffer according to God’s
will should
entrust
their souls to
their
faithful Creator and
continue
to
do
good
.
