Identity Crisis? [1 Peter 2:1-10] - J Fourie

In this message, we look at the believers identity in Christ. We will be spending time in 1 Peter 2:1-10 considering how the world views its identity versus how the church should view its identity. The apostle Peter explains here in such great detail that we are to come to Christ as living stones not as dead but as alive in Him. It is through that and desiring the pure milk of the word that each one grows in order to OfferUp spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. Christ is the chief cornerstone and each one of us are a part of His body the church. Through this body we offer spiritual sacrifices and proclaim His praise is very simply because the church is designed for worship. That is what it is created for and it is created to be in unity with the Lord Jesus Christ to further the message of the gospel. Peter gives us our identity in Christ in verse 9 by saying that we are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, and a people who are special unto Christ. We have been called from darkness into His marvelous light and we who are gentle well must remember that we were once not a people but now are a people, we once had no mercy and now we have obtained mercy. Our lives must be lives of sacrifice and dying to self that Christ may be glorified! We are His bride and His beloved! #church #sermon #jesus www.sunvalleycommunity.org
