A Challenge from a guy named Peter

Yesterday in worship, there was some scripture read that brings out a pretty bold challenge.

1 Peter 3 says this:

• Live in harmony with one another
• be sympathetic
• love as brothers
• be compassionate and humble.
• Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult, but with blessing.

David went on to read 1 Peter 4.   Here’s what it had to say:

• Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins.
• Offer hospitality to one another without grumbling.
• Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God's grace in its various forms. 
• If anyone speaks, he should do it as one speaking the very words of God.
• If anyone serves, he should do it with the strength God provides

So how’s that for a challenge in less than 5 verses in the Bible?
