Four Words to Live By: Hope Holy Fear Love

Today at MCC, Pastor Amy talked about the next part of I Peter 1 in verses 13-25. Here we learned 4 teachings that show us how to live the gospel:

1. Set your hope on Jesus' resurrection and eternal life with Him.

2. Be holy as God is holy.

3. Live your lives in reverent fear, awe and gratitude for Jesus' sacrifice.

4. Love one another deeply - with depth and duration.

Which of these is the hardest for you?

These are all hard and I fall short on every one of them! The hardest is probably to be as holy as God. Thankfully, Jesus' righteousness has been credited to us because it is impossible for us to do it on our own, but to live by faith in this sacrifice is difficult.
