1 Peter 4:1-6
1 Peter 4:1-6
January 06, 2019
Arm yourselves by embracing obedience to God no matter what the cost or the level of suffering and rejection that you might face. Salvation involves both right belief and right behavior; therefore, both should be emphasized. Peter reminds them again that they are not to live for human passions; instead, they should live for the will of God.
Time is important. Time is limited. Time should be spent wisely. Now that you have been saved by God, don’t use this limited, valuable time on earth to live in sin, but glorify God with your life. He says don’t live as you used to, he includes sin in general, but then list out sensuality, passions, drunkenness, orgies, drinking parties, and lawless idolatry.
When you don’t engage with others in sin, at first, they are surprised, but quite often their surprise turns to malign. However, we must remember that unbelievers are not the Judge, only God is the Judge of the living and the dead.

Understanding Your Purpose
December 30, 2018
People desire to have meaning and purpose but, unfortunately, many look to this world and what it can offer for that meaning. Even Christians can get lured into that way of thinking. We must not drift back into a life of vanity, of chasing after the wind. We must remind ourselves and others, that if you look to the creation, and not the Creator, for your ultimate meaning and purpose then you will never find it.

Jesus Christ has taken the judgment and wrath of God on Himself, the righteous for the unrighteous, and He has also provided salvation and security for all who are His.

As modern Christianity appears to go further away from sound doctrine, we must rise up and state the truth about the person of Jesus Christ.This doctrine is offensive. People will let you talk about Jesus all day long, as long as you keep Him on par with every other religious leader, but once you say, “Jesus is God,” get ready for what you have just said is going to stir them, either to belief, or hatred.Jesus claimed to be God that the Pharisees tried to kill Him multiple times. It was that exact claim that was the final straw for Ananias the High Priest to push for His death. The same facts about Christ that Believers hold dear are the very same facts that non-believers hate. But if we don’t present the facts about Jesus, then there is no way for the non-believer ever to become a believer.Thank you for listening. The Church at Pecan Creek is located in Denton, Texas.

What it means to live in Christian community desperately needs to be revisited today by the modern church. Christians have been trained to have an extremely minimalistic view of their Christianity and no longer see the need for deep Christian fellowship and interaction. These opening verses by Peter are a punch in the gut to modern Christianity.
Are you striving to live in Christian community with unity of mind, sympathy, brotherly love, a tender heart, and a humble mind? If you have been caught up in modern-day church attendance, "check the box, done for the week" mentality, then you are falling way. You will be short of arriving at the level of Christian intimacy commanded here by the Apostle Peter.

This portion of Peter is very challenging to the Christian-mind, but it is clear that God is concerned about how we live in society, how we submit to authority, as a citizen, in our places of employment, and even in our homes. Remember that your obedience or disobedience to God is most observed by those in your home.
May your presence, whether in society, in a workplace, or in your home, be a beautiful representation of Christ for all to see.

God has called us to endure insult as Christ endured it. Just because you are a Christian and living a Christian-lifestyle does not mean that you will not suffer hatred and insult. Trust in God who will judge all sin justly. While you may be called to suffer, even unjust suffering, in this life, know that the One who bore your sins by dying for you, has risen from the dead and you are in His care. Even while suffering, you are still under the care of the Shepherd of your soul.

Being mistreated, persecuted, enduring trials, suffering, and even suffering unjustly can wreak havoc on the Christian’s mind. However, the Bible does not leave us in distress when we face suffering. When called by God to suffer, and your situation is out of your control you can rest in the peace of knowing that God is in control.

We are citizens of heaven and Jesus is our King, yet God has put earthly authorities in place of which we are to honor. Our civil obedience is the will of God for proper Christian living. Don’t become so heavenly-minded that you fail to see the people that God has placed around you. Are you honoring all people regardless of age, race, status, etc.? If not, repent. Are you loving others in your local church as you should? If not, repent and start doing so today.

How are you viewed by those around you? Do they see you as one of them, or do they see you as one of His? If you are a Saint, don’t live like a sinner. You are a stranger here because you are a citizen of heaven. Strive to be a light in this dark world by your life and your words. The world loves sin, and it loves those who join them in their sinfulness. However, you are called by God to be different, to lead lives that reflect the God who has saved you.
