1 Peter 4:16 in Context — 1 Peter 4

14 Si sois vituperados en el nombre de Cristo, sois bienaventurados; porque la gloria y el Espíritu de Dios reposan sobre vosotros. Cierto, según ellos, él es blasfemado, mas según vosotros es glorificado.

15 Así que, ninguno de vosotros padezca como homicida, ó ladrón, ó malhechor, ó por meterse en negocios ajenos.

16 Pero si [alguno padece] como Cristiano, no se avergüence; antes glorifique á Dios en esta parte.

17 Porque es tiempo de que el juicio comience de la casa de Dios: y si primero [comienza] por nosotros, ¿qué será el fin de aquellos que no obedecen al evangelio de Dios?

18 Y si el justo con dificultad se salva, ¿á dónde aparecerá el infiel y el pecador?
