Saturday Mar 31, 2012
Saturday Mar 31, 2012
Live in Harmony; 1 Peter 3:8-9.
The blessing of Christian Fellowship looks like the following:
God uses the sinful nature of other Christians in the church, so your sinful nature will be exposed and you can repent.
Love Live & See Good Days. 1 Peter 3:10-12.
Quoted from a Psalm of David: 34:1-22
Suffering for Doing Good: “1 Peter 3:13-14”
The Gospel is Offensive. The Good News begins with some bad news.
1. Everyone is guilty of their own sin and will pay with death & hell. God’s wrath remains on them.
2. Jesus Christ is the only way to God. John 14:6.
3. People will be punished with hell for not believing Jesus. John 3:18.
Watch out for “Anything but Jesus Christ” OR “Jesus Christ + . . . . . “ .
Always be ready to give an ANSWER. 1 Peter 3:15-15.
Know your motive: Obey Jesus because He commanded it.
If you are going to suffer, suffer for doing good. “1 Peter 3:17,18”.

1 Peter 3, Part 2; Harmony & Victory
Saturday Mar 31, 2012
Saturday Mar 31, 2012
Where did Jesus go when He died on the Cross? 1 Peter 3:19-20.
3 major views.
1. Went to hell to preach to spirits of people who died from the flood.
2. Proclaimed Victory throughout the spiritual realm.
3. “Preached” in a sense through Noah prior to the flood.
I Prefer option 2.
1. Jesus is one in essence with the Godhead. He is omnipresent.
2. Sheol/Hades & Hell. Sheol/Hades; two separated parts, Paradise & Punishment = hell.
3. The word is Proclaim, not preach. A victory has been herald!
What about 1 Peter 4:5 (before they died) and Ephs 4:8-9? (Lower parts of the earth means earth = ground zero).

1. Submit to authorities
2. In the public eye live as Freemen

Husband and Wife Relationships.
“In the Same way” what?
Chapter 2:21-25 In the same way “Christ” Suffering Servant.
Oh oh. Just a point. Marriage is not “fair” It’s not about fair, it’s about serving.
The word submissive means 1) to arrange under, to subordinate
Purity: 1) exciting reverence, venerable, sacred
The First Marriage was officiated by God and they were both naked. Genesis 2:22-25
