    Christians cannot stay the way they are, and Peter urges his people to do away with evil things and set their hearts on that which can nourish life.

    Tom Lowe 4/3/2021 Text: 1 Peter, Chapter 2 (KJV) 1Wherefore laying aside all malice, and all guile, and hypocrisies, and envies, and all evil speakings, 2As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the Word, that ye may grow thereby: 3If so be ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious4To ...read more

    We must be vigilant and fight against gratifying ourselves in opposition to the will of God.
