Sermon text: 1 Peter 3:13-22
13 Can anyone really harm you for being eager to do good deeds? 14 Even if you have to suffer for doing good things, God will bless you. So stop being afraid and don’t worry about what people might do.
15 Honor Christ and let Him be the Lord of your life. Always be ready to give an answer when someone asks you about your hope.
16 Give a kind and respectful answer and keep your conscience clear. This way you will make people ashamed for saying bad things about your good conduct as a follower of Christ.
17 You are better off to obey God and suffer for doing right than to suffer for doing wrong.
18 Christ died once for our sins. An innocent Person died for those who are guilty. Christ did this to bring you to God, when His body was put to death and His spirit was made alive.
19 Christ then preached to the spirits that were being kept in prison. 20 They had disobeyed God while Noah was building the boat, but God had been patient with them.
Eight people went into that boat and were brought safely through the flood.
21 Those flood waters were like baptism that now saves you. But baptism is more than just washing your body. It means turning to God with a clear conscience because Jesus Christ was raised from death.
22 Christ is now in heaven, where He sits at the right side of God. All angels, authorities, and powers are under His control.
