We'd love to hear from you. Text us.

Do you understand God’s plan for your life?  Do you understand your kingdom calling?  Do you understand who you are in Christ & what that means as you seek to live for Christ?  Our text today is the very heart & core of the epistle of First Peter.  Our passage is the fulcrum from which all the teachings of First Peter pivot. Everything before our passage points to it.  Everything after our passage flows from it.   If we used the letter S to suggest a structure for First Peter we see that in chapters 1 & 2 Peter has spoken of our salvation & sanctification.  And later in chapters 3-5 Peter will speak of our submission, suffering, shepherds & sheep, specifically their serving & our self-control.  But all of this centers on the subject of our Scripture today, the status of the Christian.  Now the status of the Christian is based on the status of Christ.  Hence the title of our sermon Christ & the Christian.  Last time we were together we focused on: “Who is Christ?”  Today we will focus on "Because of Christ, Who are we?" Today’s text can be life changing because it is life clarifying.   Today’s text can be soul cleansing because if we really understand & apply it.  It can keep us out of the toxicity that seeks to defile you & me.   Grab your Bible, a pen, & print out the free downloadable sermon outline & accompanying study guide & let's get Washed in the Word!
