About this Episode

In this sermon on 1 Peter chapter 1 Pastor Keith explains how God deserves all the praise for giving Christians such a great salvation through the gospel of Jesus Christ. What they have now and look forward to in eternity fuels their joy, hope and love even in the face of ﬁery trials. God has given His people a new identity and inheritance and He is guarding them along with their inheritance. Though the Christian life involves a great salvation it also involves suffering. And the Apostle Peter wrote to Christians who were suffering greatly going through "fiery trials". The words in his epistle were written to encourage and strengthen the faith and hope of those Christians and they can do that for us who are believers today as we read them.

A Stuffed Life Vs. A Kingdom Life

Jesus calls us his followers to guard against covetousness and worry and counter it by having an eternal perspective and a Kingdom pursuit. A nagging desire for more than what you have diminishes your enjoyment of what you have, it dishonors God who has graciously provided what you have, and it demonstrates ingratitude and discontentment. And Jesus offers us a better way of life. Jesus, who is the source of life, offers us a life that reflects the values of His Kingdom.
