Summary

When times change for the worse, how do we know whether we need to change? How do we decide if we should still follow Jesus or follow him in the same way? Peter asks us to base our life's direction on Jesus' imminent return. In light of Christ coming back, he encourages the church to be consistent in four practices.

1 Peter 4:7–11

The end of all things is at hand; therefore be self-controlled and sober-minded for the sake of your prayers. Above all, keep loving one another earnestly, since love covers a multitude of sins. Show hospitality to one another without grumbling. As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God’s varied grace: whoever speaks, as one who speaks oracles of God; whoever serves, as one who serves by the strength that God supplies—in order that in everything God may be glorified through Jesus Christ. To him belong glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen. (ESV)
