Helping Christian Leaders
Church leaders, I am writing to encourage you. I too am a leader, as well as a witness to Christ's suffering, and I will share in his glory when it is shown to us.
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:
2 Just as shepherds watch over their sheep, you must watch over everyone God has placed in your care. Do it willingly in order to please God, and not simply because you think you must. Let it be something you want to do, instead of something you do merely to make money. 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;
3 Don't be bossy to those people who are in your care, but set an example for them. Neither as being lords over God’s heritage, but being ensamples to the flock.
4 Then when Christ the Chief Shepherd returns, you will be given a crown that will never lose its glory. And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away.
5 All of you young people should obey your elders. In fact, everyone should be humble toward everyone else. The Scriptures say, “God opposes proud people, but he helps everyone who is humble.” 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.
6 Be humble in the presence of God's mighty power, and he will honor you when the time comes. Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:
7 God cares for you, so turn all your worries over to him. Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
8 Be on your guard and stay awake. Your enemy, the devil, is like a roaring lion, sneaking around to find someone to attack. Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:
9 But you must resist the devil and stay strong in your faith. You know that all over the world the Lord's followers are suffering just as you are. Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.
10 But God shows undeserved kindness to everyone. That's why he appointed Christ Jesus to choose you to share in his eternal glory. You will suffer for a while, but God will make you complete, steady, strong, and firm. 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.
11 God will be in control forever! Amen. To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
12
Final Greetings
Silvanus helped me write this short letter, and I consider him a faithful follower of the Lord. I wanted to encourage you and tell you how kind God really is, so you will keep on having faith in him.
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.
13 Greetings from the Lord's followers in Babylon. They are God's chosen ones. Mark, who is like a son to me, sends his greetings too. The church that is at Babylon, elected together with you, saluteth you; and so doth Marcus my son.
14 Give each other a warm greeting. I pray that God will give peace to everyone who belongs to Christ. Greet ye one another with a kiss of charity. Peace be with you all that are in Christ Jesus. Amen.
