In Christian Charity/Christian Suffering

1 Peter Chapter 3 Verses 8-12; In Christian Charity: In summary , then, ALL of you should be like-minded, sympathetic, loving toward one another, kindly disposed, and humble. Do not return evil for evil or insult for insult. Return a blessing instead. This you have been called to do, that you may receive a blessing as your inheritance.
"He who cares for life
and wants to see prosperous days 
must keep  his tongue from evil
and his lips from uttering deceit(falseness)
He must turn from evil and do good, 
seek peace and follow after it. 
because the Lord has eyes for the just 
and ears fro their cry; 
but against evildoers the Lord sets his face."

1 Peter Chapter 3 verses 13-22; In Christian Suffering:  Who indeed can harm you if you are committed deeply to doing what is right? Even if you should have to suffer for justice' sake, happy will you be. "Fear not and do not stand in awe of what this people fears." Venerate the Lord, that is Christ, in your hearts. Should anyone ask you the reason for this hope of yours, be ever ready to reply,  but speak gently and respectfully.  Keep your conscience clear, so that, whenever you are defamed, those who libel (misrepresents) your way of life in Christ may be shamed. If it should be God's will that you suffer, it is better to do so for good deeds than for evil ones. The reason why Christ died for sins once for all, the just man for the sake of the unjust, was that he might lead you to God. He was put to death insofar as fleshly existence goes, but was given life in the realm of the spirit. It was in the spirit also that he went to preach to the spirits in prison. They had disobeyed  as long ago as Noah's day. While God patiently waited until the ark was built. At that time, a few persons, eight in all. escaped in the ark through the water. You are now saved by a baptismal bath which corresponds to this exactly. This baptism is no removal of physical stain, but the pledge to God of an irreproachable conscience through the resurrection of Jesus Christ. He went to Heaven and is at God's right hand. with Angelic rulers and powers subjected to Him. 

1 Peter Chapter 4 verses 1-5 ; In Christian Faithfulness: Christ suffered in the flesh; therefore, arm yourselves with his same mentality.  He who has suffered in the flesh has broken with sin. You are not to spend what remains of your earthly life on Human desires but on the will of God. Already you have devoted enough time to what the pagans enjoy. living lives of debauchrey, evil desires, drunkenness, orgies, carousing, and wanton idolatry.  It is no wonder that those blasphemers are surprised when you do not plunge into the same swamp of profligacy (shamelessly immoral , recklessly prodigal (wastefully extravagant) as they. They shall give an accounting to him who stands ready to judge the living and the dead. The reason the gospel was preached even to the dead was that, although condemned in the flesh in the eyes of men. they might live in the spirit in the EYES OF GOD.

Dear One's, Sin destorys, and we find ourselves in becoming distorted. May we embrace the life of GRACE when we have dwelling in CHRIST.  We become ENLIGHTENED - ALIVE IN JESUS!
OH People ! If one is lost , you can be found !!  If we have been chained or imprisoned in our distance from God WE CAN BE LIFTED UP ! 
If the enemy of Satan has been in the battle ground in our heart JESUS can make US WHOLE!   He will allow us to see the EVIL on the BATTLEGROUND, OUR EYES BECOME OPEN, AND WE WILL  KNOW HOW TO RESPOND !
We will have the knowledge , and God's Graces to respond to anything we encounter like Jesus does!  We have awareness , and we want to be like Jesus!

MAY WE NEVER FALL INTO THE TRAP OF SATAN, FOR HE IS THE ONE , TRYING TO DISTORT THE BEAUTY OF OUR SOUL.

MAY WE SEEK OUT BAPTISM ! Through the Sacrament of baptism We receive Christ Holy Spirit and we receive his Graces.  We become born in Christ and purified .May we become baptized and be united as ONE in Christ OUR LORD !!
WE HAVE BEEN BAPTIZED THROUGH CHRIST DEATH, AND HIS RESURRECTION

WE COME TO THE FOOT OF THE CROSS FOR SALVATION .
THE CROSS IS THE SIGN OF GOD'S LOVE FOR WE ADORE JESUS , FOR HE HAS REDEEMED THE WORLD.  
BY HIS STRIPES WE WERE HEALED. 

1 PETER CHAPTER 2 VERSES  21-25 :  It was for this you were called, since Christ suffered for you in just this way and left you an example. to have you follow in his footsteps.  He did no wrong; no deceit was found in his mouth. When he was insulted, he returned no insult. When he was made to suffer; he did not counter with threats.  Instead, he delivered himself up to the One who judges justly. In his own body he brought your sins to the Cross, so that all of us dead to sin, could live in accord with God's will. By his wounds you were healed.  At one time you were straying like sheep, but now you have returned to the Shepherd, the Guardian of your souls.

+++PETER'S CANTICLE+++song

WE ARE HIS PEOPLE; THE SHEEP OF HIS FLOCK.

PSALM 100 (a psalm of thanksgiving) 
Sing joyfully to the Lord, all you lands; serve the Lord with gladness;
come before him with joyful song.
Know that the Lord is God;
he made us, his we are;
his people, the flock he tends.
Enter his gates with thanksgiving, 
his courts with praise;
Give thanks to him; bless his name, 
for he is good;
the Lord, whose kindness endures forever,
and his faithfulness, to all generations.

Daniel Ch: 12  Those who are wise will shine brightly like the splendor of the firmament : means ( The heavens or sky) and those who lead the many to justice shall be like the stars forever !
