HOLINESS, GRACE, GLADYS, AND MR. KIT {homesick series} – Ben Miller
In one swift move Peter connects our identity to our actions. Being named as God’s sons and daughters gives us a beautiful motive, and that motive helps turn our eyes toward Him and away from sin. We were not made to love dead things. (I Peter 1:13-2:3, Lev 11:44-45, Matt 5:48, James 2:17, John 16:8, Rom 12:2, Eph 4:29-31, Matt 18:21-35)
