Thriving Under The EmperorSeries: 1 PeterPreacher: Jared BlankenshipDate: 8th February 2026Passage: 1 Peter 2:13-17-------------------Thriving in exile means thriving under the emperor, and Peter helpfully instructs us on how to do just that. His main point is this: Christians must submit to civil authorities under Christ, obeying the rule of law except when doing so would result in disobedience to God. The goal of this submission is to be like Jesus and to prove the goodness of Christian ethics in the public sphere.
