In light of the incredible things that Peter reveals to us, he then asks us, how then should we live? If Jesus really is who he says he is, and if his promises are really true, then that has to change everything!

As we have our Annual General Meeting this week, we hear the words of Peter calling forward to us and the things he sees facing the church.

We must know the word so that we can discern good and faithful teaching. We must stand firmly on the truth of Jesus!

The Apostle Peter knew his life was coming to an end, and he wrote a letter to the church telling us these final things. Let us hear and obey the words that the Spirit has given us through him.

When God brings his word to life within us, we are transformed - our appetites, our behaviours, our purpose are all made new as we live in submission to his will and his ways!

The Word Alive in Us should lead us to surrender and trust, knowing our heavenly Father is in control!

When the Word is alive in each of us, we are drawn together to become the body of Christ, his church, walking and living in his power together!

When God's word lives in us his holiness lives in us!

This week we're beginning our new series exploring what it means for the Word to be alive in us!

Jesus taught us all about life and walking with God, and at the end he taught us what to do with all of that - to take his teaching, and teach others. Go make disciples!
