*CHRIST AND HIS CHOSEN PEOPLE PART SIX*
Text:
1 Peter 2:4-12 (NKJV)
Topic verse:
*"But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light"*
1 Peter 2:9
Although we once deserved condemnation because of unbelief
John 3:18,36
Ephesians 2:1-3
We no longer are under the sentence of judgment
Ephesians 2:4-7
Peter reminds believers
1 Peter 1:1
that this earth is not our home. We are foreigners here, traveling to our eternal home, heaven.
The word translated *abstain* literally means "to hold away from one's person". In other words, we must distance ourselves from our own self-indulgent urges.
*Life is not a game but a war to be waged, and that war is a matter of eternal life or death.*
Romans 7:23
James 4:1
*Yet the war is not necessarily fought on a physical, temporal plane, but on a spiritual one*
