The Future Starts Now - for US and THEM

1 Peter 4:12-19

Inspired thots:

1) For God's people
~ v17 Judgment begins with God's people ~> discipline; molding to be more like God
~ may not be pleasant but necessary
~ a preparation for the future
~ positive inclination

2) For those who dont know God
~ to pray for their salvation.
~ if not saved, worse judgment for them than for God's people
~ negative inclination

Hence, it is alright for God's people to undergo discipline for our betterment to prepare ourselves for the eternal future.
But, how sad for the suffering of those who dont know Jesus as Lord and Savior?
Pray for their salvation. Give them the chance I had.
