After we become believers, our lives should reflect our new identities in Christ, whether we are in public, at worship, or in private. This means being dedicated enough to care deeply, speak honestly, and live differently—even about such divisive matters as homosexuality. Reflecting on Peter’s words about our new life as God’s people, Alistair Begg challenges us to confront sin boldly while relating to sinners gently, asking ourselves the question, “Am I committed?”
9But you are za chosen race, aa royal bpriesthood, ca holy nation, da people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you eout of darkness into fhis marvelous light. 10gOnce you were not a people, but now you are God's people; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.
11Beloved, I urge you has sojourners and exiles ito abstain from the passions of the flesh, jwhich wage war against your soul.
