Monthly Scripture Reading 1 Peter 2 |
| For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow His steps: |
| Who did no sin, neither was guile found in His mouth: |
| Who, when He was reviled, reviled not again; when He suffered, He threatened not; but committed Himself to Him that judgeth righteously: |
| Who His own self bare our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed. |
| For ye were as sheep going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls. |
| 1 Peter 4 |
| If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are ye; for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you: on their part He is evil spoken of, but on your part He is glorified. |
| 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. |
| Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf. |
