Let Christ Shine
Series 1 Peter
The world hears about our God but they see us. We are to pursue the excellencies of God and His light which is only possible in Christ.
My holiness is simply because Jesus lived the perfect life and He dies for me.
The encouragement for us who know the Lord is to fight:
Rom 6 We are no longer slaves to sin/1Pet 2 says don't act like you are.
Eph 5 We are temples of the HS/1Pet 2 don't act like you are not
Gal 5 We have the fruit of the spirit/1Pet 2 Don't give in to the lust of the flesh
Be armed with Christ through the power of the HS and Fight as Christian Soldiers
