A Living Hope - Week 8
This week Executive Pastor Lee Cadden teaches through 2 Peter 1. He tells us of the theme of 2 Peter - Your Holiness in Hardship matters, and is possible, in Christ. He ends with these questions:
- What cleverly devised myths are you prone to believe? About yourself? About others?
- What have you forgotten today that Jesus would have you remember?
- You have been given the gift of faith → are you supplementing it with virtue, knowledge, self-control, steadfastness, godliness, brotherly affection, and love?
- Are you living with eternity in mind? Peter was. Did he fail? Sure. but as he got closer, his gaze remained on Christ.
- Do you live as a pilgrim or a resident? A pilgrim assumes he is still on a journey, and this land is not home. A resident settles in and assimilates. Disciples are always pilgrims, and Jesus is the way.
