1 Peter 2:21 Christ Suffered For Us Leaving Us An Example

1 Peter 2:21 (KJV) For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps:

Follow the steps of Christ who suffered for us, leaving us an example. The Christian witness has our Lord Himself as our model. He loved us and gave Himself for us.

John 15:13 (KJV) Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

John 15:18-20 (KJV) If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you. If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you. Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also.

May the Lord make us willing, by His grace, to follow after Him with all our heart, soul, mind and strength though it may be a cross. Amen.
