Even if we are surrounded by the enemies of God, we need not be terrified of their terror. Rather, let us choose to focus on being Christ’s holy temple and remain ready with his truth. God has our back, and he does not need our protection. On the other hand, those who speak against Christ need to hear and see the truth of Christ from us. Whether this truth humiliates them or draws them to God, our job is to bring truth with grace and gentleness. Our job is to follow Christ and proclaim him, being willing to suffer for doing good with a gracious and gentle demeanor.
Read the passage: 1 Peter 3:14b-17
