According to Peter, pt. 5 - Like Christ
Manage episode 503284043 series 3038443
Beware, the end is nigh. And Christ already showed us how to handle it. With grace, faith, and commitment to God. We must follow his example.
- We are in for a fight, and we need to prepare to have unswerving resolve in order to experience victory.
- We share in his victory, but we must also share in his suffering.
- Being dead to sin, requires us to live in the present.
- Whether it’s Jesus’ return or the end of our lives, our short time remaining should motivate us to live like Christ.
- They way we love others should hurt a little bit. It should require us to stretch beyond what we think is capable.
- Suffering as a Christian is not “if” but “when”.
- The one thing we can’t do is respond to persecution with retaliation.
