1 Peter 2:18-25 "Pilgrim Principles" Part 2

This message reveals practical applications of powerful words written to us by the apostle Peter. As Christians, we are pilgrims who are journeying through these foreign lands. This world is not our home. We are not planning on staying here but are preparing for an eternal home. We must look, talk, think and act differently. We are born again for something better. We need to live in a way that brings praise, glory and honor to our Lord Jesus Christ. The world needs to see this joy, this peace, this love of Jesus in us by honoring all people. We do not want to look like everybody else. Did Jesus do this? Yes. This is our call. This is your call. This is our priority.

Jesus did all of this in order to bring us to a place so we can be reconciled back to God. We now have a living hope, a chief cornerstone that transcends this hopeless world. It is not about us it is about Jesus.

3 take away points are:

  1. Let us learn to suffer well. Struggles are part of the Christian walk.

  2. Let us work unto the Lord in all we do. So we can hear: well done good and faithful servant.

  3. Let us live on mission. Bringing souls to Jesus.

1 Peter 2:11-17 "Pilgrim Principles" Part 1

Our actions affect those outside the Church. The unbelieving world measures Jesus by the way we as Christians conduct our lives. Our actions matter. Daily seeking Jesus should shape everything that we do. Three key points of this message are: strangers, submission and silence. Fleshly lusts war against the soul. That war is an indication of a transformation taking place in us. Peter makes 3 key points:

  1. We are supposed to abstain

  2. Those fleshly lusts war against our soul

  3. These fleshly lusts center around autonomy

Let your identity as a Christian shape your decisions. Live as free, but as a bond servant of God.

1 Peter 2:4-10 "Living Stone(s)"

This message is about priorities and how to establish them according to Biblical cornerstone principles. Priorities are decisions we make in our lives that regard some things more important than others. We have to be purposeful in establishing priorities. We need to do this so that we do not find ourselves at the end of our life with disappointments, regrets or the realization of a long road of wasted opportunities.

Three cornerstone priorities are:

  1. God’s people need to keep God central.

  2. God’s people get built together.

  3. God’s people are to be a proclaiming people.

Do our ambitions and our priorities fit the life that Jesus is calling us to? He, Jesus, being our Chief Cornerstone? It may be time for a course correction. If not now, soon you will. We are all called to be as living stones that are all connected to the Chief Cornerstone, Jesus Christ.

1 Peter 1:13-21 "Our Response Ability"

Historically this book is written in the first century during a time of great persecution of the Church.

5 imperative commands to be taken seriously are:

  1. Gird up the loins of your mind. Get ready for action.

  2. Be sober.. This is how we stay in the game to perform effectively by monitoring what goes into our mind.

  3. Fully rest our hope on the grace of God. His grace is sufficient for us.

  4. Be holy. Be separate from all that is unholy. Be apart from all that is in opposition to God.

  5. Conduct yourself, live your life, in a healthy Godly fear because God judges without partiality. The decisions and choices we make every day matter.

In what direction are you trending? When our mind is right we will remember who we are and who He is. Let God’s word be God’s word to us and be holy as God is holy. Holiness is more a direction on this end of eternity that it is a place.
