First Peter 2:18-20 // The Favor of God (Preached on July 16, 2023)
from Jeff Shelnutt Sermons · host Jeff Shelnutt
Relationships can be complicated. And this was especially true for early Christians. Slavery in the first century Roman Empire was a reality. Though faith in Jesus Christ sets a person free from the bondage of sin, it doesn't necessarily change his social condition. It was easy enough for a slave who became a Christian to relate to a good and gentle master. But what about when his boss was harsh and unreasonable? Peter answers this question by considering that which finds favor with God.
