While Christians suffer in different ways, the recipients of this letter were suffering because of their faith in Jesus. In this message we discover that suffering for Christ is an essential part of God’s plan for His people in this world. Yet suffering is not the end. Just like the birth of a baby, a spiritual conversion and every good Hollywood movie, so we follow the pattern of Jesus; to suffer, die and rise!

Where does your identity come from? In this passage we discover that for those who are in Christ, we are royal and holy in God’s eyes. The purpose of this new identity is that we may do what we were made to do… proclaim the praises of God!
