Waterbrook Sermons Revisited

1 Peter Chapter 1 (Part 2)


Listen Later

Peter is going to describe what it means to be holy.  He's going to call us saints.  Peter spent 3 years with Jesus who modeled for us what it means to live a holy life in fellowship with the Father. He wants us to live a life that is set apart as a response to God's grace.  Peter will go on to describe an internal change that will help us live in this way as we change to live as foreigners, as people preparing to go home. We must mentally engage in setting all of our hope in God's future grace for us. We should choose to act as those who are God's own people, rejecting the evil desires that once drove our actions before we knew better.


He goes on to describe how we can give pure love to other Christians. It's a big part of our purpose and one way God intends for us to spend our brief lives on this side of eternity.
Jesus is the living word of God, Peter writes, which is eternal.  God has a plan for you that you can only experience when your mind is being continually washed by the power of the Word and the guidance of the Holy Spirit.
