returning with the goal of your faith, the salvation of souls.

inquiring as to what type of condition was signified to them by the Spirit of Christ, when foretelling those sufferings that are in Christ, as well as the subsequent glories.

For this reason, gird the waist of your mind, be sober, and hope perfectly in the grace that is offered to you in the revelation of Jesus Christ.

but in accord with him who has called you: the Holy One. And in every behavior, you yourself must be holy,
