Sermon - God’s Special Possession - 1 Peter 2:4-10

Sermon Series: 150th Anniversary CelebrationTitle: God’s Special PossessionPassage: 1 Peter 2:4–10Preacher: Archbishop Kanishka RaffelDate & Time: Sunday 14 December 2025, 9:30 amAs we celebrate 150 years of God’s faithfulness, this message draws us back to the heart of who we are in Christ. In 1 Peter 2:4–10, we are reminded that God has made us His special possession—not because of our achievements, but because of His grace. Through Jesus Christ, the living cornerstone rejected by the world but chosen by God, we have been built into a spiritual house and called into His marvellous light. The gospel declares that Christ gave Himself for us, so that we might belong to God and proclaim His praises to the world. In this anniversary sermon, Archbishop Kanishka Raffel will encourage us to give thanks for the past, stand firm in the present, and look ahead with confidence as God’s redeemed people, set apart to live for His glory.
