First Peter - A Battle For Your Soul

War movies are popular: the director's ability to guide our emotions through the rigors, terrors, and dangers of war helps us both to partly understand and wholly respect what soldiers have experienced for our sake. Yet, we regard them as entertainment; surely WE would never be called to fight, to be disciplined enough to stand our ground, to hold the line against an invading force, right?

In First Peter, it is made clear to us that sinful desires wage war against our souls, and the terminology used there is neither a mistake or an exaggeration. Today, Pastor Greg explores the Biblical standard for living "as foreigners" in this world, being citizens of a faraway land.
