1 Peter 5:
10
May the God of all grace, who calls us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after
you have suffered a while, make you perfect, established, strengthened, and settled.
11 To Him be the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.

Peter is addressing Christian Fellowship
Make you perfect=Mend, repair, restore. Fitted together.

G2675 - katartizō - Strong's Greek Lexicon (KJV)

1 Corinthians 1:10 Now I plead with you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ,
that you all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you,
but be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

Galatians 6:1 Brethren, if a man is overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual
restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness, considering yourself lest you also be tempted.

Hebrews 13:
20
Now may the God of peace who brought up our Lord Jesus from the dead, that
great Shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant,
21 make you complete in every good work to do His will, working in you what is well
pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen.

This is the working of the Holy Spirit in the Body of Christ, which requires the
recognition of established authority.


Ephesians 4:
11
And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists,
and some pastors and teachers,
12 for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the
body of Christ
,
13 till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God,
to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ;
14
that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with
every wind of doctrine
, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting,
15 speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head-Christ;
16 from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies,
according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of
the body for the edifying of itself in love.
