The Lord Jesus Christ

If you were going to describe the Lord Jesus to someone what would you say?
Peter is going to take some time to tell his readers about the Lord Jesus

The two words living and stone do not go together
There is no life in a stone

3) Life that He gives is different from other types of life
B.
Character of a stone:
1) Everlasting John 1:1

3) Gives strength to uphold v. 6 and Matt.
7:24-29
2.
He is chosen by God and precious v. 4
He did the will of the father
See 1 Peter 1:20-21
3.
He is disallowed by men v. 4
God became man, lived 33 year, taught, healed, and yet was rejected because He was not what they wanted or expected
People today reject Him as well, contrary to what they think He should be

9-10
1.
A new position: From not being a people of God to being a people of God
Romans 3:10-18 our condition before Christ
Ephesians 2:1-10 our condition before and after Christ
It blows my mind to stop and think about being made a “people of God”
Having a special position~/relationship before God
What an honor that is
2.
New benefits
1) Lively stones v. 5
Again the idea of stones being made alive
He uses us as building stones within His Church
Lively stones are built on the Living stone

Word the ephod with the names of tribes on it
Now we can come boldly to the throne Heb.
4:16
3) A holy nation~/peculiar people~/ people of God v. 9
For what purpose?
Represent God before men
