Live as Strangers and Pilgrims

1 Peter 2:11-12

Dear friends, I urge you as aliens and temporary residents not to give in to the desires of your old nature, which keep warring against you;

but to live such good lives among the pagans that even though they now speak against you as evil-doers, they will, as a result of seeing your good actions, give glory to God on the Day of his coming.
