In 1 Peter 4:1-6 we read how since the suffering of those who follow Christ will give way to glory, they should be wiling to suffer. Therefore, Peter tells his readers to ready themselves with the same attitude that was in Christ when He suffered. So, the Christians is to be ready to suffer with the attitude that is determined to do the will of God no matter the cost, even if that means suffering and death. Peter explains that if a Christian is willing to suffer for the will of God, this will have implications for their lives and their battle against sin. Also, as a Christian arms themself with the attitude that was in Christ, they can entrust themself to God, the just judge, and have confidence that even if they die, they will go be with their Lord, which is the great hope of the Christian.
