Chosen People

1 Peter.2:9-12

But you are a chosen people, a royal pristhood, a holy nation a people belonging to God,that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light. Once you were not a people, but now you are the people of God; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy. Dear friends, I urge you, as aliens and strangers in the world, to abstain from sinful desires, which war against your soul. Live such good lives among the pagans that, though they accuse you of doing wrong, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day he visits us.


Sharing of the word:

My dear children, as the word says, we are a chosen people, aren't we special, let us show by our deeds and abstain from sinful desires and live good lives.
For it is God's will that by doing good, you should silence the ignorant talk of foolish man. Respect everyone, love the brotherhood of believers and fear god. Always bring Jesus to your mind. When they insulted Him, He did not retaliate. When He suffered, He made no threats. He bore our sins in His body so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness. By His wounds you have been healed. So my dear children, if you have drifted away - come back Jesus is waiting for you.
