1 Peter 1:20-22

Expanded Bible

²⁰ Christ was ·chosen [destined; ^Lforeknown] before ·the world was made [^Lthe foundation/creation of the world], but he was ·shown to the world [revealed] in these last times for your sake. ²¹ Through Christ you ·believe [have faith/trust] in God, who raised Christ from the dead and gave him glory. So your faith and your hope are in God.

²² Now that your obedience to the truth has purified your ·souls [or lives], you can have ·true [genuine; sincere] love for your Christian brothers and sisters. So love each other ·deeply [earnestly] ·with all your [^Lfrom the] heart.^[a]
