2. 1 Peter 2:1-25: "End Times Instruction"

The book of I Peter is filled with admonitions for Christians of all times and all places on how to live READY for the coming of the Lord. The Apostle Peter under divine inspiration did not see a difference between normal Christian living and last days Christian living. He believed that all Christians at all times should live READY for the coming of the Lord.The Book of I Peter is literally filled with admonitions and instructions on how all Christians should be living…Whether it is the destruction of Jerusalem that was coming in Peter's time, or the judgment of the world that is drawing near today.No matter what happens in this world today, tomorrow, next month or next year, don't get caught up in the hype and the panic of the moment.  If foreign enemies threaten, if the economy collapses, if we are persecuted as Christians... in the grand scheme of God's plan, these things matter very little.  What matters is that we live ready for His coming.Do NOT be DRAWN away by the cares of this world! Draw nigh unto God, and He will draw near to you.  If you are wondering what you need to do as you see the day approaching, study the scriptures, pray and draw close to the Lord.
