1 Peter 2:11; 1 Peter 5:1; 1 Peter 5:12

11 Beloved, I urge you as aliens and strangers to abstain from fleshly lusts which wage war against the soul.

1 Therefore, I exhort the elders among you, as your fellow elder and witness of the sufferings of Christ, and a partaker also of the glory that is to be revealed,

12 Through Silvanus, our faithful brother (for so I regard him), I have written to you briefly, exhorting and testifying that this is the true grace of God. Stand firm in it!
