I Peter Chapter 4 Bible Study - Vs. 12 to end

The Apostle Peter continues teaching us about suffering.  He wanted us to know that suffering is to be expected.  Trials are a part of life.  He wanted to make sure that we understood that if we are going to suffer as Christians that we need to live right, so that we do not bring any suffering or trials on ourselves.  Any suffering we should experience should only be because we have been living for Christ.  We are to bring glory to God's name, not shame.  Christ is our example.
