FAMILY THEME: HOLINESS

HOLY LIKE HIM

1 Peter 1:3-25

Through the work of Jesus Christ believers have received

the incorruptible gift of salvation. While the gift is great and

free, holiness is an expected part of a believer's life as he

or she grows in a relationship with the Father.

1.  In Christ, Believers Have an Indestructible Inheritance

     (1 Peter 1:3-9)

     Christ's inheritance will stand through all time, with no

     fading, spoiling, or decay.

 
2.  Believers Have Greater Blessings Than Prophets and Angels

     (1 Peter 1:10-12)

     The salvation the prophets spoke of is the salvation we

     have received.

 
3.  Believers Have Been Called to Holiness

     (1 Peter 1:13-25)

     God always has intended for His people to be holy.
