!!! Our Redemption
!!! 1 Peter 1:17-2:3
!!! Introduction:
So far: Encouragement for those who are suffering
Encouragement to live a holy life because God is holy
Today: Look at our redemption and the price that was paid
!!! I. The Character of the Author of Redemption
1.
He is a Father v. 17
He is the one who produced life, brought us from death to life, looks at us as His children
1) He chastises: Hebrews 12:5-7
v.
10 for our profit
v.
6 because He loves us
2) He provides: Matt.
6:25-34
3) He protects 1 Peter 1:5
4) He loves John 3:16 see also Hebrews.
12:6
2.
He is no respecter of persons v. 17
Impartial
Doesn’t look on the things that we would in order to judge
Example: God’s choosing David through Samuel
Saul was picked for his appearance and failed quickly
3.
Judges according to man’s work v. 17
Puts each man’s works to the test: See motivation behind
1 Cor.
3:12-15
!!! II.
The Cost of redemption
1.
Negative: Not with corruptible things
Can’t buy something that will last for eternity with something that won’t last!!
1) Silver and gold: small coins used to buy slaves
2) Lifestyle: vain = without value
3) Not from fathers: sin nature is what is passed on.
2.
Positive: with the precious blood of Christ
Precious: highly esteemed
Perfect lamb
Foreordained: not an afterthought but planned by God
Made manifest through His coming
!!! III.
The Results of Redemption vv.
22-2:3
1.
We are to love v. 22
1) Reason: “Since you have purified you souls….”
“having been born again….”
1 John 4:7-12, 20-21 Love is a sign that we belong to Him
See Eph.
4:1-6
It is a sincere love (unfeigned) – not an on~/off cheap love
It is real and genuine: Spirit given
It is with a pure heart: Motivated by a desire to please God
It is a fervent love: Idea of an athlete giving hours and hours of strenuous training.
Even though it is something that God does in us it is also something that we need to strive for.
2.
We have a confidence in the Word of God: vv.
23-25
1) It lives and abides forever vv.
23, 25
Isaiah 55:11 never returns void
Matt.
5:18 one jot or one tittle
2) In contrast to all else v. 24
We can always rely on the Word of God, it will never fail
What God says will surely take place.
3.
We lay aside that which does not please God 2:1-3
Malice: wickedness and evil conduct
Guile: craftiness, using our words to get what we want
Hypocrisies: Acting on a stage: being someone or something that we are not, hiding behind a mask.
Envies: Long for what someone else has or is to the point that we start to tear them down, or think evil against them.
Evil speaking: Words that tear down.
How?
“Laying aside”
Like taking off a coat
Put off and put on Romans 13:13-14
4.
We take in spiritual nourishment from the Word
Take in the milk which causes growth
If we are too full of the other we won’t grow
1) Natural occurrence: Baby – adulthood
2) Natural process: eating
Don’t generally teach baby desire to eat
Desire comes from being alive
Character of the word:
Pure: it is the only thing that satisfies, if give water to baby won’t satisfy
Much spiritual entertainment today that leaves wanting
Powerful: causes growth: born by the word grow by the word.
1:23 compared to seed: pushes through the soil to grow
Delicious: v.
3
