Thus we would be imitating the life of Christ, our great Example. “For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow His steps: Who did no sin, neither was guile found in His mouth” 1 Peter 2:21-22 (see also Ephesians 5:1-8; Colossians 3:5-17).
"Sapagkat sa ganitong bagay kayo'y tinawag: sapagkat si Cristo man ay nagbata dahil sa inyo, na kayo'y iniwanan ng halimbawa, upang kayo'y mangagsisunod sa mga hakbang niya: na siya'y hindi nagkasala, o kinasumpungan man ng daya sa kaniyang bibig." 1 Pedro 2:21-22, (tingnan din ang Efeso 5:1-8; Colosas 3:5-17).
