1 Peter 1:15-17
Worldwide English (New Testament)
15 But be holy in all the things you do. Be holy because the one who has called you is holy.
16 God says in the holy writings, `You must be holy, because I am holy.'
17 You call God your Father. He does not think one man is better than another. He judges everyone by what he has done. So then you must fear him as you live your life here on earth.
