Lastest message Arm Yourself | Jen Key | 1 Peter 4:1–6

Having laid out the glory of the gospel and the truth that Jesus died for our sins, Peter tells his readers the “So, what?” of the gospel. Believers now belong to God and are part of his family and we should live accordingly – saying no to sin and living for ourselves, and yes to living in line with God’s will. We need to arm ourselves with the same way of thinking as Jesus and follow his example. Those around us may be shocked in the changes in our behaviour, might reject and attack us, but we know we are living in response to God’s grace and in line with the truth. As we arm ourselves with gospel thinking and live in the light of it, we testify to God’s amazing grace and invitation to know real fullness of life.
