Exiles: 1 Peter 1:3-9 | Week 2 - James Sharp
Manage episode 422906114 series 3030156
The Apostle Peter wrote the letter we call 1 Peter while persecution against Christians was simmering in and around ancient Rome. He wanted his readers to be prepared for hard things to come, and he sought to prepare them by reminding them of their identity as the chosen people of God, living as exiles in a world of suffering.
We continue our series in 1 Peter looking at 1 Peter 1:3-9.
We Should Praise God:
- Because he has given us new birth
- Because of the eternal inheritance he keeps in heaven for us
- Because he guards us through faith until Jesus returns
- Because he has given us a joy that transcends trials
