Called to Be Holy

Today’s Feast Sep. 5, 2014-1st Peter 1 Called to Be Holy clic aquí en español Please join with us sharing God’s Word daily.  We will spend about fifteen minutes a day praying and reading every word in God’s Word in approximately three years.  Gods Not Dead! “3 For this is the will of God, your sanctification: that you abstain from sexual immorality;” 1 Thessalonians 4:3 Return to Admenu – Admenu’s Alternate Site An Overview 1 Peter; “The same great doctrines, as in St. Paul's epistles, are here applied to same practical purposes. And this epistle is remarkable for the sweetness, gentleness, and humble love, with which it is written. It gives a short, and yet a very clear summary, both of the consolations and the instructions needful for the encouragement and direction of a Christian in his journey to heaven, raising his thoughts and desires to that happiness, and strengthening him against all opposition in the way, both from corruption within, and temptations and afflictions without.” - Matthew Henry Concise.  Dear Saints, Today we prayerfully continue our Feast by reading the book of 1 Peter Chapter 1; “The apostle blesses God for his special benefits through Christ. (1-9) Salvation by Christ foretold in ancient prophecy. (10-12) All are exhorted to holy conversation. (13-16) Such as is suitable to their principles, privileges, and obligations. (17-25)“ - Matthew Henry Concise.  Peter greets the exiles in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia, (see 1-peter 1:1-9) you have never seen Jesus yet your faith in Him saved you.   Some prophets told how kind God would be to you (see 1 Peter 1:10-12) and because of your faith the Holy Spirit has revealed Jesus to you.  You have been chosen to live a holy life (see 1 Peter 1:13-16) as Jesus who called you is holy, you also be holy.  God judges all people by what they do (see 1 Peter 1:17-25) because you obeyed the truth, your souls were made pure; “24 for "All flesh is like grass and all its glory like the flower of grass. The grass withers, and the flower falls, 25 but the word of the Lord remains forever." And this word is the good news that was preached to you. ” James 5:19-20 English Standard Version (ESV).  Because we are saved by the blood of Christ (see John 14:21) our conscience has been cleared to serve the living God. We have been ransomed to serve Jesus; “18 And Jesus came and said to them, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age."” Matthew 28:18-20 ESV. We must let everyone including God’s chosen people know that Jesus is the Messiah (see Acts 2:36) and that God has made him both Lord and Christ.  There are still only two choices (see Luke 16:13) every person will choose between Jesus and the world.
