Message

SURVIVE AND THRIVE
Privileges Available”
1 Peter 2:4-10 

“And he (Andrew) brought him (Peter) to Jesus.
Now when Jesus looked at him (Peter), He said,
‘You are Simon the son of Jonah. 
You shall be called Cephas’
(which is translated, a stone).”
(John 1:42)

Introduction: When we place our faith in Jesus Christ there are certain privileges that come with our new reality. 

These Privileges Include Being:

Chosen (1 Peter 2:4a)

Valued (1 Peter 2:4b) (John 3:16)

Connected (1 Peter 2:5a) (Ephesians 2:19-22)

Accepted (1 Peter 2:5b) (Hebrews 4:14-16)

Changed 

From Being
--no longer shamed by sin (1 Peter 2:6)
--no longer an offense to God (1 Peter 2:7-8)

To Being
--selected by God (1 Peter 2:9a)
--acknowledged by God (1 Peter 2:9b) (Revelation 20:6)
--separated by God (1 Peter 2:9c)
--purchased by God (1 Peter 2:9d) (Titus 2:13-14)

Capable

Of Praising God (1 Peter 2:9e)

Of Seeing God (1 Peter 2:9f) (Colossians 1:13)

Of Knowing God (1 Peter 2:10a)

Forgiven (1 Peter 2:10b)
