In Chapter 5 Paul starts by speaking elders to pasters and those who are more mature in their walk with Christ asking them to watch, care and be patient with those who God has entrusted to them that are younger in the faith. He also point out that we should never become eager to become leader because of what we will get from it but because we want to serve God whole heartedly. Leader are to guide by example and Paul remines them that there is a crown or never ending glory and honor that will be given to every leader that does so. He goes on to speak to new believers that their responsibility is to be humble, to serve each other and accept the authority of the elders. Speaking to both Peter goes on to talk about Satan telling them to be vigilant because Satan seeks to come against us. But we are to stand strong on the word of God knowing that God doesn't give us more then we can bare and he will restore us.
