This week we will begin a new series called, “The Anatomy of Sin.”
Memory/Meditation Verses
- 1 Peter 1:13-25 – Study this section as prep for the next section.
- 1 Peter 2:1-3 – Let’s all internalize this section.
Life Application Assignment
1. In our assigned sections, Peter is clearly (at least in part) comparing and contrasting the difference between the old life, prior to being born-again and the new life as those who have been redeemed by Jesus. Question: What do you find to be the most difficult part of being a new creation? Hint: Think about your attitude and actions related to sin and about sin.
2. The Bible teaches us that we ARE holy, and it also commands us to BE holy. Please describe the tension you feel between these 2 truths. Hint: Do you always FEEL holy? If not, how does that affect your efforts to BE holy?
