Sacred Sunday~1st. Peter, Chapter 3/Wifely Duties-Say What?

1 St. Peter Chapter 3-Wifely Duties...Say what?

    More Peter, more not-21st-century-friendly advice: ladies, obey your husbands.  Even if your man is an unbelieving jerkwad, just keep being sweet as pie.   Hey, maybe one day you'll win him over with your feminine charms and Christian piety. Maybe.   Also, girls, don't spend too much time on your image. Just say no to braiding your hair, wearing gold, or putting on fancy clothes. It's overkill.  Instead of worrying about what you look like on the outside, show off your beautiful inside. Okay, so we've heard about wives. How about the gents?    Well, Peter thinks that husbands should be considerate to their wives, too. Sure, the ladies are the "weaker sex," but they're also God's children who will reap all the same rewards as men. We guess there's no misogyny in Heaven. Be Excellent to Each Other!   And some advice for everyone: just love one another.  If someone does something bad to you, don't try to get even by seeking revenge. Bless them instead.   It's the only way you're gonna inherit that kingdom of Heaven everyone keeps talking about. Just say no to evil.     And even if someone does attack you while you're doing the right thing.  Jesus suffered and died so that everyone could be saved. Even those naysayers.   Remember when Noah built that ark and God saved only eight people after cleansing the world with water?  Now he wants to save everyone through water—the water of baptism, to be exact. By being baptized, believers ask God to help them do what's right.  All this is possible because of Jesus. Thanks to  www.shmoop.com
