God's word to minister to us and when I would encourage you to turn to the the second chapter in 1st Peter, and I'm titled this message.
The not so easy of something easy to understand and I'm tired of it that way.
Because really, we could read today's passage and it's kind of a, well, duh, Passage But the actual living it out, working it out in our life.
Is not so easy.
Some of you may have read the passage already, one of the nice things about preaching expository Lee, you know what the pastor is going to be preaching on its great except for holidays, but you know Easter, guess what?
I'm going to be preaching on Jesus Christ risen.
I'm so if you have an idea and I appreciate that, you knew what was coming and you still showed up this morning, this is encouraging to your pastor, some of your going, man.
I really should have read a head home.
And what are we getting into so far in in Peter?
We have looked at some of the foundational aspects of our faith.
We've looked at the foundation of our salvation.
I got to say, it's been exciting to read through this and study through this, and look at it.
And, and now, as we move forward in in Peter, we're going to look at how that is practically applied in your life and mine.
I love practical application because it really makes sense to the day-to-day things that you and I go through.
But I'll be honest, sometimes the practical application of God's word is difficult.
How wonderful it is as we've looked at Peter to look at the power of the Salvation that you and I get to get to participate in.
That's a wonderful encouraging thing and then to look and see how God has a plan and a purpose for this salvation that we've entered into.
Those things, as we read it, we just feel good.
It it strengthens and encourages us, does it?
Not and then Peter goes and he challenges us to, to live out this hope.
And we read that and we see that as as living stones, and we're like, yes I'm going to live out this hope that that God is giving me.
And we are enthused until we come to 2:13.
And we will find that verse after verse all the way to really 4:11.
We are given some very challenging practical ways to live out this hope.
I love practical.
Challenging is another thing.
And we're going to be looking at that in applying these things are lines as we look today.
Our passage.
It's it's going to we're going to look at the point of the passage and basically that the point is God's will.
I love that.
And then we're going to look at the Practical basically living it out.
What am I supposed to do with this?
This point that Peter's making,
And then, sorry guys.
In the back you're going to have to control the slides.
It's not.
There it is.
Good.
I'm not sure how to keep that slide up there.
There it is.
Okay.
Technology sometimes right.
But we are going to look at the point.
Where did I look at the practice of the living it out?
And then we're going to look at the purpose.
The, why?
And the how
And I believe the purpose is going to solidify for each one of us just those things.
but as we consider those things, I want to
I want to reflect on a story of of a missionary couple.
Mission work is is often very difficult.
Austin and missionary will will go to a foreign field far from home.
and being far from home, it's Adds to the the burdens, the struggles that one would have.
And I was reminded as I put this, this message together of a missionary couple who would serve on the form field for 30 years.
After 30 years of, not returning, back to the States.
They were on a ship.
and as they were approaching the harbor, Is there a protein?
The doc they began to hear a band playing.
Their ears.
Perked up.
They, they begin to see streamers and crowds cheering.
And as it got closer watching, all this fanfare.
they noticed a certain dignitary that was aboard the ship and as he disembarked The crowds the band, The streamers.
Follow that individual has.
He had returned home.
The couple quietly, disembark the ship.
Quiet infant.
No, husband just seemed just a little discouraged and sad.
said, you know, after 30 years It would have been nice to have someone greet us.
My wife leaned over.
Holding his arm.
and whispered in his rear, A sweetheart.
We're not home yet.
I think that's very fitting to remember.
As we engage in these next couple chapters.
The first Peter.
because as the church, Is one to represent Christ.
So often we can find this life.
to be faced with struggles, Difficulties.
Heart aches.
And often, as we engage in the work of God and and fulfill his plan in his purpose, in our lives, for his glory.
Seldom.
Do we see or experience any fanfare?
Consider that as we go to.
1st Peter.
Chapter 2. As we consider.
The Not So Easy Task.
What's something easy to understand? 1st Peter, chapter 2 begins and verse 13.
Submit yourselves.
Right.
There are some of you just want to leave, don't you?
You're like no one of these passages.
Yes.
Isn't it great?
You know what it's times, like this as a pastor.
I am so glad I am reading God's word and not sharing my opinion.
Submit yourselves for the Lord's sake.
To every Human Institution whether to a king, that's the one in Authority or to the governor sent by him for the punishment of evildoers and the praise of those who do, right?
For such.
Is the will of God.
