1 Pet 3:13-17 Christ As Lord In Our Hearts

Peter told us to hold Christ as “Lord in our hearts” even if (as he said in the verse before) we “should suffer for the sake of righteousness,” know that it is God’s will that we are to “suffer for doing what is right rather than for doing what is wrong“ (as he said in the verse after). So it seems it might be costly or inconvenient to properly hold Christ in our heats. Yes, it is. Do it anyway.
