So, do people think you’re strange? Did you know that is actually a good thing?
When we as Christians do not participate in the revelries and partying of the world, when we don’t take advantage of people, or mock them, or give in to the baser instincts of humanity, we are considered strange.
Now, if you’re thought strange for other reasons, I can’t really defend you, but in the defense of the Gospel, you are in a very blessed category reserved for those who have truly died to themselves and the flesh.
This morning we are going to look at the way to pursue this very admirable course of action and how to prepare for the assault by those close to us.
Peter is attempting to ready us for life in the Spirit. It is one that sets us apart from those who follow Christ in name only, and those who have truly considered themselves alive to Christ.
So, the question is, dead or alive?
