1. So get rid of every kind of evil, every kind of deception, hypocrisy, jealousy, and every kind of slander.
2. Desire God’s pure word as newborn babies desire milk. Then you will grow in your salvation.
3. Certainly you have tasted that the Lord is good!
4. You are coming to Christ, the living stone who was rejected by humans but was chosen as precious by God.
5. You come to him as living stones, a spiritual house that is being built into a holy priesthood. So offer spiritual sacrifices that God accepts through Jesus Christ.
