HE HAS CALLED YOU OUT OF DARKNESS

But ye are a chosen generation, a royal 
priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar 
people; that ye should shew forth the 
praises of him who hath called you out 
of darkness into his marvellous light:
Which in time past were not a people, 
but are now the people of God: 
which had not obtained mercy, 
but now have obtained mercy.
Dearly beloved, I beseech you 
as strangers and pilgrims, 
abstain from fleshly lusts, 
which war against the soul;
Having your conversation 
honest among the Gentiles: 
that, whereas they speak against 
you as evildoers, they may by 
your good works, which they 
shall behold, glorify God in the 
day of visitation. 

I Peter 2: 9-12
