THE CHALLENGE TO Studies in 1 Peter

Beloved, I urge you as aliens and strangers to abstain from fleshly lusts, which wage war against the soul.

Keep your behavior excellent among the Gentiles, so that in the thing in which they slander you as evildoers, they may on account of your good deeds, as they observe them, glorify God in the day of visitation. (1 Peter 2:11-12)

Beloved, I urge you as aliens and strangers to abstain from fleshly lusts, which wage war against the soul.

Now the deeds of the flesh are evident, which are: immorality, impurity, sensuality, idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, disputes, dissensions, factions, envying, drunkenness, carousing, and things like these, of which I forewarn you just as I have forewarned you that those who practice such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God. (Galatians 5:19-21)

Beloved, I urge you as aliens and strangers to abstain from fleshly lusts, which wage war against the soul.

How? Pinpoint the problem areas in your life and pray about it. Eliminate the situations that make this a temptation for you. Find out what positive virtue the flesh is substituting for and work to replace every fleshly trait with its proper one!

Why? Because we are citizens of another country!

Beloved, I urge you as aliens and strangers to abstain from fleshly lusts, which wage war against the soul.

Why? Because we are citizens of another country! Since we are citizens of heaven we live by the laws of heaven, not by the canons of the world about us!

Keep your behavior excellent among the Gentiles, so that in the thing in which they slander you as evildoers, they may on account of your good deeds, as they observe them, glorify God in the day of visitation. (1 Peter 2:11-12)

Keep your behavior excellent! It is not enough to try to avoid sinning, must practice positive righteousness! Whatever is right we need to do it better than our friends and neighbors.

How? “Success means being the best. Excellence means being your best. Success, to many, means being better than everyone else. Excellence means being better tomorrow than you were yesterday. Success means exceeding the achievements of other people. Excellence means matching your practice with your potential.”

Keep your behavior excellent among the Gentiles, so that in the thing in which they slander you as evildoers, they may on account of your good deeds, as they observe them, glorify God in the day of visitation. (1 Peter 2:11-12)

What is the day of visitation? "Visitation" translates "episcopes“, the NT word for “overseer.”..and will level you to the ground and your children within you, and they will not leave in you one stone upon another, because you did not recognize the time of your visitation.” (Luke 19:44)

Why? Our good deeds will prove the world wrong!

Keep your behavior excellent among the Gentiles, so that in the thing in which they slander you as evildoers, they may on account of your good deeds, as they observe them, glorify God in the day of visitation. (1 Peter 2:11-12)

Why? Our good deeds will prove the world wrong! Our good deeds will lead others to the Lord!

Keep your behavior excellent among the Gentiles, so that in the thing in which they slander you as evildoers, they may on account of your good deeds, as they observe them, glorify God in the day of visitation. (1 Peter 2:11-12)

Let Peter's challenge burn in your heart daily. Dare to be different! Rise above mediocrity! Make a difference in the lives of the people around you! Be salt! Be light!
