Bible: 1 Peter 2:11-25

Overview: How should we live as the people who belong to God in a culture and a society that is sometimes hostile and, at other times, dismissive towards Christian faith---It would be easy to feel justified in becoming antagonistic towards those in power and cynically disregarding of their authority, particularly where they have no regard for what we believe or when such authority lacks integrity.--Some might argue that if this world is not our true home and our primary allegiance is to God and not to human authorities then are we not free from being responsible to those in power---Peter-s answer to such questions may surprise us.--He makes it clear that true Christian freedom need not be compromised by submission to those in authority, but instead actually finds its truest expression because as we honor those in authority we are serving God.--Confessing Christian faith, even in our society, will bring suffering sooner or later but let it not be because we have dishonored and disregarded those in authority by using our freedom as an excuse to justify our own willfulness, but because we are following in the steps of Christ.
