The Apostle Peter tells us in 2 Peter chapter 1, that there are great and precious promises for us from God. The reason for these promises are so we can partake in God’s divine nature and escape the world’s corruption which is through lust and human desire.

Every Christian knows they should share their faith but statistics show how few actually do. Most Christians could tell you “ten steps to abundant living” but few could tell you how to effectively win someone to Christ. Jesus tells believers in Matthew 28:19 to “Go ye…” You will have to go outside of the church, go beyond yourself and go where you may not be comfortable. However, be assured, as you go God goes with you (Acts 1:8).

The second half of 1 Peter, the Apostle encourages believers that were scattered through Pontus, Galatia, Capadocia, Asia and Bithynia to endure suffering for doing good works. He tells us that we are to arm ourselves with the same attitude that Christ had when He suffered in his body for the good news sake. Peter tells us that suffering is inevitable, so you might as well suffer for Christ which has purpose and incorruptible reward.

Sometimes in life we put people and objects in front of our fellowship with God. Jesus addresses these issues plain and simple. In Matthew’s gospel Jesus tells us plainly when we are not worthy of Him.

There are doctrinal and theological issues the bible instructs us in, but there is also the practical side of us doing the work. The knowledge we receive from God’s word has to be more than a library of resources we stock up on the inside. There has to be application.
