1Peter
3:14-16
14 But and if ye suffer for righteousness'
sake, happy are ye: and be not afraid of their terror, neither be troubled;
15
But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer
to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness
and fear:
16
Having a good conscience; that, whereas they speak evil of you, as of
evildoers, they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good conversation in
Christ.
Consider
the attributes needed for such an urgent and necessary ministry BY each one of
us in this militantly perverse generation:
- a
courageous spirit: "and be not afraid of their terror, neither be
troubled."
- a
submissive heart: "But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts."
- a
ready and INFORMED mind: "and be ready always to give an answer to every
man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you." (Informed by the
word of God!)
- a
humble attitude: "and be ready always to give an answer to every man in
meekness and fear."
- a
good conscience: "having a good conscience."
- a
blameless life: that they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good
conversation in Christ.
May
our Lord help each of us to be a light in this dark world.
