always ready to give an answer
"But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and
always be ready to give a defense to everyone
who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you,
with meekness and fear;"
1 Peter 3:15 NKJV
"But in your hearts set Christ apart as holy
[and acknowledge Him] as Lord. Always be
ready to give a logical defense to anyone who
asks you to account for the hope that is in you,
but do it courteously and respectfully."
1 Peter 3:15 AMP
"Instead, you must worship Christ as Lord of
your life. And if someone asks about your
Christian hope, always be ready to explain it."
1 Peter 3:15 NLT
