1 Peter 2:11-17 — Living Godly Lives in a Pagan Society
1Pet.2.11-17
11Beloved, I urge you, as foreigners and exiles, to abstain from fleshly desires, which wage war against the soul. 12Keep your conduct honorable among the Gentiles, so that, though they slander you as evildoers, by observing your good works they may glorify God in the day of visitation . 13Submit yourselves , for the Lord's sake, to every human institution, whether to the king as supreme, 14or to governors as those sent by him for the punishment of evildoers and the praise of those who do good. 15For this is the will of God: that by doing good you should silence the ignorance of foolish people. 16Live as free people, yet not using your freedom as a cover-up for evil, but as slaves of God. 17Honor everyone. Love the brotherhood . Fear God. Honor the king.
