Renewed to Honor

This is the last the study on the first chapter of Peter, if God does not bring into His light more things that we can share in the coming Sunday. And if you call on him as Father who judges impartially according to each one's deeds, conduct yourselves with fear throughout the time of your exile, knowing that you were ransomed from the futile ways inherited from your forefathers, not with perishable things such as silver or gold, but with the precious blood of Christ, like that of a lamb without blemish or spot. He was foreknown before the foundation of the world but was made manifest in the last times for the sake of you who through him are believers in God, who raised him from the dead and gave him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God. Having purified your souls by your obedience to the truth for a sincere brotherly love, love one another earnestly from a pure heart, since you have been born again, not of perishable seed but of imperishable, through the living and abidin...

 Therefore: Be Holy  Therefore: Be Joyful Therefore: Be full of hope verse 1: since God has chosen you, verse 3: since God has caused you to be born again to a living hope, verse 4: since God is keeping an inheritance for you imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, verse 5: since God is protecting you through faith so that you won't lose that inheritance, verses 6–7: since God is refining your faith by fire so that it will receive praise and glory and honor, verse 8: since you are swimming with the strokes of love and faith and joy in Christ, verses 10–13: since prophets and angels are on tiptoe to see all that God's grace is going to do in your life

 Notes to be update soon

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! According to his great mercy, he has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you, who by God's power are being guarded through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. In this you rejoice, though now for a little while, if necessary, you have been grieved by various trials, so that the tested genuineness of your faith—more precious than gold that perishes though it is tested by fire—may be found to result in praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ. Though you have not seen him, you love him. Though you do not now see him, you believe in him and rejoice with joy that is inexpressible and filled with glory, obtaining the outcome of your faith, the salvation of your souls. (1 Peter 1: 3-9 ESV) This week also we will be talking about hope. This is t...
