[3 different versions, of todays discused "verse " 1 Peter 3:15] :-))
#1 NIV (New international)
But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord.
Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you
to give the reason for the hope that you have.
But do this with gentleness and respect,
1 Peter 3:15 NIV
#2 NKJV (New King James)
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
#3 NLV (New Life Version)
Your heart should be holy and set apart for the Lord God.
Always be ready to tell everyone who asks you why you believe as you do.
Be gentle as you speak and show respect.
1 Peter 3:15 NLV

My HOPE in Jesus blood cleansing me of all my sin, takes away a certain fear in death & "that it all ends"
Now that I know, the way, the Truth & the Life about Jesus & the realities of Heaven & Hell,
My Faith in the Lord to save me from Hell is the only Hope you can have from that too...
Pray this Prayer to Heaven, if you don't have that "HOPE"
"nothing" & I Mean NOTHING, is more important, than being FORGIVEN !
