In the letter of 1 Peter, the Apostle Peter writes to believers living in a hostile, sinful world. His message still speaks to us today. Though rejected by men, God's people are chosen and precious to God, built as living stones into His spiritual house. In Christ, we are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people called out of darkness into His marvelous light.
In 1 Peter 2: 3-9, Peter doesn’t just remind us of our identity, but he urges us to live like it. As sojourners and exiles in this world, we must remember that our true citizenship is not in this world but is in heaven! Therefore, we must resist the passions of the flesh that wage war against our souls. Victory comes not through our strength but through the Spirit’s power, producing fruit that glorifies God. Our lives should shine for Christ so brightly that even when accused or misunderstood, unbelievers may one day see Christ in us and glorify God. The call is clear: remember who you are, walk in holiness, crucify the flesh, and live by the Spirit until the day of His visitation.
