I PETER

I Peter 5

1I who am myself one of the rulers of the church, and a witness of the death of Christ, having my part in the coming glory, send this serious request to the chief men among you:

Colossians 3:3, Colossians 3:4, Luke 24:48, Colossians 3:3, Colossians 3:4

2Keep watch over the flock of God which is in your care, using your authority, not as forced to do so, but gladly; and not for unclean profit but with a ready mind;

Titus 1:7, Titus 1:7, 1 Timothy 3:8, 1 Timothy 3:8, Acts 20:26

3Not as lords over God's heritage, but making yourselves examples to the flock.

Philippians 3:17, 2 Thessalonians 3:9, Philippians 3:17, 2 Thessalonians 3:9, Ezekiel 34:4

4And at the coming of the chief Keeper of the sheep, you will be given the eternal crown of glory.

James 1:12, James 1:12, 1 Corinthians 9:25, 1 Corinthians 9:25, 1 John 3:2

5And in the same way, let the younger men be ruled by the older ones. Let all of you put away pride and make yourselves ready to be servants: for God is a hater of pride, but he gives grace to those who make themselves low.

James 4:6, James 4:6, Proverbs 3:34, Proverbs 3:34, Ephesians 5:21

6For this cause make yourselves low under the strong hand of God, so that when the time comes you may be lifted up;

James 4:10, James 4:10, Luke 14:11, Luke 14:11, Proverbs 29:23

7Putting all your troubles on him, for he takes care of you.

Psalms 55:22, Psalms 55:22, Philippians 4:6, Philippians 4:6, Psalms 37:5

8Be serious and keep watch; the Evil One, who is against you, goes about like a lion with open mouth in search of food;

Ephesians 6:11, Ephesians 6:11, James 4:7, James 4:7, Job 2:2

9Do not give way to him but be strong in your faith, in the knowledge that your brothers who are in the world undergo the same troubles.

James 4:7, James 4:7, Acts 14:22, Acts 14:22, Ephesians 6:11

10And after you have undergone pain for a little time, the God of all grace who has given you a part in his eternal glory through Christ Jesus, will himself give you strength and support, and make you complete in every good thing;

2 Corinthians 4:17, 2 Corinthians 4:17, 2 Thessalonians 3:3, 2 Thessalonians 3:3, 1 Peter 1:6

11His is the power for ever. So be it.

1 Peter 4:11, 1 Peter 4:11, Romans 11:36, Romans 11:36, Revelation 1:6

12I have sent you this short letter by Silvanus, a true brother, in my opinion; comforting you and witnessing that this is the true grace of God; keep to it.

Hebrews 13:22, Hebrews 13:22, Acts 11:23, Acts 11:23, 2 Corinthians 1:19

13She who is in Babylon, who has a part with you in the purpose of God, sends you her love; and so does my son Mark.

Acts 12:12, Acts 12:12, Acts 12:25, Acts 12:25, Revelation 18:2

14Give one another the kiss of love. Peace be to you all in Christ.

Romans 16:16, Romans 16:16, Ephesians 6:23, Ephesians 6:23, Romans 8:1
