I Peter 4:8-4:11

Maintaining and Manifesting Fervent Love

Last time on Bridging the Gap, Pastor Lloyd Pulley urged us to be ready for the soon return of Christ, and we can be ready by living righteously. How we are to be living in the light of our Lord's imminent return will again be the focus of our time together here today as we continue our study of First Peter. Our text today will be chapter four, verses eight through eleven.

  1. And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.
  2. Use hospitality one to another without grudging.
  3. As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.
  4. If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
