Let Your Actions Speak Well of Jesus
Hi GAMErs,
Today’s passage is 1 Peter 2:11-17. Let’s go!
1 Peter 2:11a (NIV)
11 Dear friends, I urge you, as aliens and strangers in the world…
On verse 11a: Here is the “alien and stranger” theme again from Peter, the idea that as Christians our home is not on earth but in heaven. So don’t live as if your life on earth is all there is, but every day live with heaven in mind.
1 Peter 2:11b (NIV)
…to abstain from sinful desires, which war against your soul.
On verse 11b: How does sin “war against your soul”? By trying to get you to buy into the lie that you’ll be happier and better off if you sin. That is the deceitfulness of sin. Are you tempted to sin in a certain way today?
