GRACE IN THE INDIVIDUAL LIFE AND IN THE HOME
Jesse M. Hendley
I Peter 2:19-20

Here we are again, friends, studying this wonderful First
Epistle of Peter, and here is the wonderful song,

Grace is flowing like a river!
Millions there have been supplied;
Still it flows, as full as ever

for conscience toward God endure grief, suffering
wrongfully. For what glory is it if when ye be
buffeted for YOUR FAULTS ye shall take it patiently?
But if, when ye DO WELL and suffer for it, ye TAKE IT
PATIENTLY (there is the suffering), this is acceptable
