ACC ~ 1 Peter 3 v13

YOU WILL NEVER LOSE GOD. AUGUSTINE: If you love the good, you will suffer no loss, because whatever you may be deprived of in this world, you will never lose God, who is the true Good. SERMONS 335C.5.

WHO IS THERE TO HARM YOU? HILARY OF ARLES: Who can prevent you from being blessed, for the Scriptures say that no one can take our joy from us. INTRODUCTORY COMMENTARY ON 1 PETER.

NO HARM CAN COME. BEDE: Peter is speaking here of things like abuse, damage and bodily injury which come to us from our enemies. These and similar things are the common lot of believers, both because they are good imitators of Christ and because they know that such things, far from doing them any harm, actually bring glory to those who endure them with patience. At the same time, harm does in fact come to those who do such things, because they are storing up eternal punishment for themselves. ON 1 PETER.
