Although we may not long to be holy as much as we long to be hopeful (see last week’s sermon), the way Peter describes holiness in I Peter 1:13-2:3 shows how very beautiful and attractive it is, not only for us but also for everyone around us.
Adam was a type of Christ, each having the same role as the representative of his people, but with opposite outcomes.
Although we work for the growth of the kingdom, it grows mysteriously in ways that we cannot understand or control.
The same joy that the first disciples experienced upon seeing Jesus again is available to us.
