Summary
Through 1 Peter 1:3-4, the pastor explains why Christians gather for worship: God's great mercy has given us new spiritual birth through Christ's resurrection, securing an imperishable inheritance in heaven. Believers are called to understand that salvation comes not from personal works but from trusting Christ's finished work.
Highlights
Your sin can't outspend God's mercy and grace. No matter the mountain of wrong you're doing in your life or have done or going to do, no matter how big or how much it costs, you cannot outspend the bank of God's mercy and grace in your life.
God is not just looking for you to intellectually agree with the truth of the gospel. He's asking you to trust in the truth of the gospel. It's not about the amount of faith that you have. It's about what your faith is placed in.
This book is not about us doing something for God. It's about how God has done something for us. That he's accomplished salvation on our behalf.
