1 Peter 1:22-25

22Since you have 1purified your souls 2in obedience to the truth for a 3sincere love of the brothers and sisters, fervently love one another from 4the heart, 23for you have been 5born again 6not of seed which is perishable, but imperishable, that is, through the living and enduring 7word of God. 24For, “8All flesh is like grass, And all its glory is like the flower of grass. The grass withers, And the flower falls off,259But the word of the Lord endures forever.” And this is 10the word which was 11preached to you.
