Living Beautifully Among the Nations | 1 Peter 2:11-17

A sermon by Pastor Tim Vusik from 1 Peter 2:11-17.

What is a holy nation to do in the midst of a wicked Roman Empire? What are we to do when the morals of God’s kingdom collide with the immorality of the earthly nations in which we still reside? In this section, Peter gives us a strategy to honor God and live for Christ in our wicked culture, by the power of the Spirit working in us from the inside out.

Big Idea: Since you're God’s people, depart from fleshly desires and display beautiful behavior.

1. Turn away from desires outside of God’s will (11)
2. Live in a way that draws others to God’s glory (12-17)
