[4222.78 --> 4224.48] Live such good lives |
[4224.48 --> 4225.38] among the pagans |
[4225.38 --> 4226.90] that though they accuse you |
[4226.90 --> 4227.76] of doing wrong, |
[4227.76 --> 4229.48] they may see your good deeds |
[4229.48 --> 4231.34] and glorify God |
[4231.34 --> 4232.24] on the day |
[4232.24 --> 4234.40] he visits us. |
[4235.56 --> 4236.54] And that's it. |
[4237.36 --> 4239.06] That's the point of it all. |
[4239.22 --> 4239.34] Right? |
[4239.40 --> 4240.44] Why do you abstain |
[4240.44 --> 4241.88] from sinful desires |
[4241.88 --> 4242.92] like a warrior? |
[4243.62 --> 4244.68] Why do you live |
[4244.68 --> 4246.02] as beloved foreigners |
[4246.02 --> 4247.28] and exiles? |
[4247.28 --> 4248.54] Why do you endure |
[4248.54 --> 4249.92] accusation |
[4249.92 --> 4250.66] and hardship |
[4250.66 --> 4251.44] and opposition |
[4251.44 --> 4253.04] and weirdness |
[4253.04 --> 4254.36] and peculiarity? |
[4255.94 --> 4257.50] For the glory |
[4257.50 --> 4259.64] of God. |
[4260.10 --> 4261.50] For the glory of God. |
[4261.60 --> 4263.56] There is no greater reason. |
[4263.72 --> 4265.20] There is no greater purpose. |
[4266.12 --> 4267.30] And you've really |
[4267.30 --> 4268.44] got to believe that. |
[4268.78 --> 4268.92] Right? |
[4268.96 --> 4270.06] You've got to be sold |
[4270.06 --> 4270.86] on the idea |
[4270.86 --> 4271.84] that God's glory |
[4271.84 --> 4274.48] really is your greatest joy. |
[4274.70 --> 4275.76] You've got to buy into |
[4275.76 --> 4277.22] that hook, line, and sinker. |
[4277.48 --> 4279.56] That Jesus is your all in all. |
[4279.80 --> 4281.46] You've got to really believe that. |
[4281.68 --> 4283.18] Like Paul says in Philippians |
[4283.18 --> 4285.20] that the traditional markers |
[4285.20 --> 4286.40] of success and power |
[4286.40 --> 4287.66] and status in society |
[4287.66 --> 4288.78] are rubbish, |
[4289.08 --> 4289.58] are garbage. |
[4289.90 --> 4290.86] Literally, he says, |
[4290.94 --> 4291.42] and I'll keep it |
[4291.42 --> 4292.26] in polite company here, |
[4292.42 --> 4293.66] he says that they're BS |
[4293.66 --> 4296.68] compared to the surpassing |
[4296.68 --> 4298.60] greatness of knowing God. |
[4299.96 --> 4301.60] It's only when you know God |
[4301.60 --> 4302.36] that way |
[4302.36 --> 4304.72] can you live this way. |
[4307.28 --> 4308.44] And knowing God that way |
[4308.44 --> 4310.42] only comes one way. |
[4311.34 --> 4312.22] Peter makes this clear |
[4312.22 --> 4314.06] in the rest of the chapter. |
[4314.78 --> 4315.54] We didn't read it, |
[4315.64 --> 4317.46] but with Bibles before you |
[4317.46 --> 4318.48] or on the screen, |
[4318.74 --> 4321.64] look at verse 21. |
[4321.64 --> 4325.86] To this you were called |
[4325.86 --> 4329.32] because Christ suffered for you, |
[4329.76 --> 4330.86] leaving you an example |
[4330.86 --> 4331.74] that you should follow |
[4331.74 --> 4332.48] in his steps. |
[4333.22 --> 4334.74] He committed no sin |
[4334.74 --> 4335.80] and no deceit |
[4335.80 --> 4337.12] was found in his mouth. |
[4337.84 --> 4339.58] When they hurled insults at him, |
[4339.64 --> 4340.64] he did not retaliate. |
[4341.18 --> 4342.22] When he suffered, |
[4342.74 --> 4343.88] he made no threats. |
[4344.96 --> 4345.28] Instead, |
[4345.68 --> 4347.26] he entrusted himself |
[4347.26 --> 4349.84] to him who judges justly. |
[4351.68 --> 4352.76] He bore himself, |
[4352.96 --> 4354.92] he himself bore our sins |
[4354.92 --> 4356.60] in his body on the cross |
[4356.60 --> 4359.12] so that we might die to sins |
[4359.12 --> 4361.22] and live for righteousness. |
[4362.32 --> 4364.04] By his wounds, |
[4364.14 --> 4365.18] you have been healed. |
[4366.86 --> 4368.74] For you were like sheep |
[4368.74 --> 4369.64] going astray, |
[4370.38 --> 4371.88] but now you have returned |
[4371.88 --> 4372.56] to the shepherd |
[4372.56 --> 4374.16] and overseer |
[4374.16 --> 4375.64] of your souls. |
[4380.18 --> 4383.02] He himself bore our sins |
[4383.02 --> 4384.72] in his body |
[4384.72 --> 4386.10] on the cross |
[4386.10 --> 4389.22] so that we might die to sins |
[4389.22 --> 4392.04] and live for righteousness. |
[4394.26 --> 4397.30] The way to have relationship |
[4397.30 --> 4398.34] with God, |
[4398.44 --> 4399.40] the way to live |
[4399.40 --> 4400.40] in the manner |
[4400.40 --> 4402.06] that God has called you to live |
