Born Again into a New Identity
from Solid Rock Church Sermons Hosted by Jason Williams
In this sermon, we looked in 1 Peter 2:1-12 at Peter's calling for believers to put off their old identity, which is rooted in the flesh, in order to live according to their new identity, which is rooted in the Word of God. Peter tells these exiled believers that their suffering is a reflection of the suffering of Christ because He, too, was rejected by men, but chosen and precious to God. He reminds them that despite experiencing rejection by men, they have been born again into a new identity in Christ: a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, and a people for God's own possession. Peter describes believers as God's beloved sojourners and calls us to pursue a life of good deeds, rooted in our new identity in Christ, and aimed at the glory of God.
