The Flocks of Christ - 1 Peter 5

By -
1 Peter 5:1 The elders which are among you I exhort, who am  also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and  also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed: 

1 Peter 5:2  Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the  oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for  filthy lucre, but of a ready mind; 

1 Peter 5:3 Neither as being  lords over God’s heritage, but being ensamples to the  flock. 

1 Peter 5:4 And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye  shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away. 

1 Peter 5:5  Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder.  Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed  with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace  to the humble.  

1 Peter 5:6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand  of God, that he may exalt you in due time: 

1 Peter 5:7 Casting all  your care upon him; for he careth for you. 

1 Peter 5:8 Be sober,  be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring  lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: 

1 Peter 5:9  Whom resist steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same  afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the  world. 

1 Peter 5:10 But the God of all grace, who hath called us  unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have  suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen,  settle you. 

1 Peter 5:11 To him be glory and dominion for  ever and ever. Amen.  

1 Peter 5:12 By Silvanus, a faithful brother unto you, as I  suppose, I have written briefly, exhorting, and testifying  that this is the true grace of God wherein ye stand. 

1 Peter 5:13  The church that is at Babylon, elected together with you,  saluteth you; and so doth Marcus my son. 

1 Peter 5:14 Greet ye  one another with a kiss of charity. Peace be with you all  that are in Christ Jesus. Amen.   KJV

1 Peter
