Podcasts about 1 Peter 2

In this episode of The Postscript, Pastor Andrew and Pastor Ian sit down discuss 1 Peter 2:9-25.

This Sunday, we're stepping into 1 Peter 2 and continuing our journey through this powerful letter. Peter begins by showing us how love for one another is not just a command, it's the visible evidence of Christ at work in us. But he doesn't stop there. He warns us of five destructive behaviors: malice, deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and slander. These things sabotage our community and damage our witness. They are not simply bad habits; they're soul-level toxins that erode trust and fracture unity in the body of Christ. If we've tasted the goodness of God, we should crave the things that nourish us spiritually - His Word, His Spirit, His people, and prayer.Peter then paints a beautiful picture of who we are becoming together. Individually, we're like newborns growing in grace; collectively, we are being built into a spiritual house. Jesus, the cornerstone, is the foundation for it all. Even though the world may reject Him, and us by extension, God sees His Church as chosen and precious. Each of us plays a role in this sacred structure, and we're all priests called to offer our lives in worship. There's no hierarchy here, just one Savior, one Spirit, and one mission.In a time when the church is often criticized for its flaws, Peter reminds us that we're not just a gathering, we're being shaped into something eternal. This calling comes with a responsibility: to live honorably, love sincerely, and shine brightly in a dark world. I look forward to unpacking this with you and challenging us all to consider what kind of “spiritual house” we're helping to build. Come prayed up and hungry for the Word.

In this sermon, Pastor Andrew Coleman preaches on 1 Peter 2:3–9. In a world that often rejects Christ, God calls His people chosen, holy, and precious in His sight. Jesus is the cornerstone—the sure foundation of our faith—and we, as living stones, are being built into His spiritual house. Through Him, we become a royal priesthood, offering our lives as spiritual sacrifices and proclaiming the One who called us out of darkness into His marvelous light. This passage reminds us of our identity in Christ and our purpose—to stand firm in Him, live set apart for Him, and glorify God with our lives, even when the world misunderstands or opposes us. ________________________________________ Links to Sermon Notes & Answers: ➤Sermon Notes (Blank): https://www.sheridanhills.org/_files/ugd/30fec2_bf3e538378ee48d8bba3acfa869bb791.pdf ➤Sermon Notes (Answers): https://www.sheridanhills.org/_files/ugd/30fec2_3f2500243cbd45a08bf25e8bd28c11a3.pdf ________________________________________ Subscribe to this channel to catch weekly expositional sermons from the Bible. ________________________________________ Explore more sermons and information: https://www.sheridanhills.org/watch-new ________________________________________ Follow us: ➤Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/sheridanhills/ ➤Twitter: https://twitter.com/sheridanhills01 ➤Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sheridanhills/

Do you ever look in the mirror and wonder who you really are? The Apostle Peter's first letter gives believers some powerful insight into this question. In 1 Peter 2:9-10, he reminds us of our identity in Jesus Christ--and why this identity matters so deeply. Listen as Pastor Rob Bentz helps us understand the significance of our Christ-centered identity in our latest sermon, Called and Claimed. 

1 Peter 2:4-10 English Standard Version A Living Stone and a Holy People 4 As you come to him, a living stone rejected by men but in the sight of God chosen and precious, 5 you yourselves like living stones are being built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. 6 For it stands in Scripture: “Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone,     a cornerstone chosen and precious, and whoever believes in him will not be put to shame.” 7 So the honour is for you who believe, but for those who do not believe, “The stone that the builders rejected     has become the cornerstone,”[a] 8 and “A stone of stumbling,     and a rock of offense.” They stumble because they disobey the word, as they were destined to do. 9 But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvellous light. 10 Once you were not a people, but now you are God's people; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.

Nothing comes more naturally to our hearts than self-defense and retaliation against those who mistreat us. To embrace a life of submission and unjust opposition requires a supernatural power and example to follow. As Christians, we have both in our crucified and risen Savior – Jesus Christ. 

1 Peter 2:18-25 "Christ Taking Form In Us"

In this episode, we launch the In Christ series with a message from 1 Peter 2:9–10 titled Remade in Christ. Together we wrestle with life's most essential questions: Who are you? Why are you here? Where are you going? Scripture reminds us that in Christ we find our true identity and mission. We don't belong to our affiliations or accomplishments, but to God Himself—chosen, redeemed, and sent to proclaim His glory. Join us as we rediscover who we are, why we exist, and what God has done for us through the gospel.

Live Out Your Free Salvation By Showing Respect To Everyone 1 Peter 2:16-17 16Live as free people, but do not use your freedom as a cover-up for evil; live as God's slaves. 17Show proper respect to everyone, love the family of believers, fear God, honor the emperor.

When Peter addresses the Christian life, he reveals to us that the Christian life is marked by submission. Understanding the Kingdom of God helps us understand the command to submit to every human authority, as well as why and how we should submit.

Allow Jesus To Be The Overseer Of Your Soul 1 Peter 2:25 25For “you were like sheep going astray,” f but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.

If You Follow Jesus Be Prepared To Suffer Like Jesus 1 Peter 2:22-24 22“He committed no sin, and no deceit was found in his mouth.” e 23When they hurled their insults at him, he did not retaliate; when he suffered, he made no threats. Instead, he entrusted himself to him who judges justly. 24“He himself bore our sins” in his body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; “by his wounds you have been healed.”

Be Conscious Of God To Help You Endure The Struggle And Suffering 1 Peter 2:18-21 18Slaves, in reverent fear of God submit yourselves to your masters, not only to those who are good and considerate, but also to those who are harsh. 19For it is commendable if someone bears up under the pain of unjust suffering because they are conscious of God. 20But how is it to your credit if you receive a beating for doing wrong and endure it? But if you suffer for doing good and you endure it, this is commendable before God. 21To this you were called, because Christ suffered for you, leaving you an example, that you should follow in his steps.

Submit To God By Living For The Lord's Sake And Not For Self Sake! 1 Peter 2:13-15 13Submit yourselves for the Lord's sake to every human authority: whether to the emperor, as the supreme authority, 14or to governors, who are sent by him to punish those who do wrong and to commend those who do right. 15For it is God's will that by doing good you should silence the ignorant talk of foolish people.

Walk Differently Than The World Walks 1 Peter 2:11-12 11Dear friends, I urge you, as foreigners and exiles, to abstain from sinful desires, which wage war against your soul. 12Live 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.

Ever feel spiritually low? Peter shows us why—and how to embrace a new identity that changes everything. As a church family, we're learning what it means to leave behind the junk food of this world and build our lives fully on Jesus.Your new identity comes with a new diet, a new foundation, and even a new calling. The question is—are you ready to embrace it?

Not Your Accomplishments That Make You Right With God; HE DID IT! 1 Peter 2:9-10 9But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation,ab, ac a people for His possession, so that you may proclaim the praisesaf, of the One who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.ai 10Once you were not a people, but now you are God's people; you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.

The Biblical Recipe for Spiritual Growth

Allow God To Put You Where He Wants You And To Build His Church 1 Peter 2:7-8 7Now to you who believe, this stone is precious. But to those who do not believe, “The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone,” 8and, “A stone that causes people to stumble and a rock that makes them fall.” They stumble because they disobey the message—which is also what they were destined for.

Serve Together As A Team As ONE! 1 Peter 2:4-5 4As you come to him, the living Stone—rejected by humans but chosen by God and precious to him— 5you also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house a to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.

If You Know Him Rid Yourselves Of Worldly Behaviors And Thinking 1 Peter 2:1-3 1Therefore, rid yourselves of all malice and all deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and slander of every kind. 2Like newborn babies, crave pure spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow up in your salvation, 3now that you have tasted that the Lord is good.

Join as Pastor John continues our series on the Gospel

Through Christ, God is building a spiritual house that grows as people come to him and are converted into living stones. Just like the temple and the priests in the Old Testament who mediated the presence of God to the people, believers in Christ mediate the presence of Christ to the outside world by offering the “spiritual sacrifice” of witness. In what we say and do, we mediate the presence of Christ by testifying to his “excellencies,” so that others might embrace him as Lord and Savior. 

Pastor Ray Bentley talks about proper Christian conduct in the workplace. We live in a culture that basically, you know, man, if they do something wrong or whatever, what you do is you go get the biggest, baddest lawyer you can and you sue their pants off. But what if I am a Christian? What am I supposed to do as a Christian employee?

The Lord changes us for an example. Pastor Ray Bentley says, look to the Apostle Peter. I love Peter because here's this big, rough Galilean fisherman who was now because of his time spent with Jesus Christ, loving, affectionate. Two little letters that Peter wrote to the believers 2000 years ago. Eight times in those two letters he says, dearly beloved.

God loves you so much. He chose you. Pastor Ray Bentley explains. What does it mean to be chosen? Very simply, it comes by the grace of God. You are chosen by God's amazing grace. And this is one of the amazing mysteries. We are chosen. And when did he choose us? The scriptures reveal that before the foundations of the earth were even laid.

Some treat prayer as a shopping list. Give me this, Lord. Give me that, God. Like we're pulling up to a drive thru window today, pastor Ray Bentley cautions us. We must be very careful and humble and let God bring His Word to pass, and let him live it out in our lives and answer our prayers according to his will.
