ARE YOU A BABY? WHAT KIND?

1 PETER 2

 

Pastor Rick Jackson

 

I. WHAT ABOUT A GOOD BABY? [v. 1-3]

 

1. A Good Baby’s Deliberation [v. 1, 1 Corinthians 14:20]

Brethren, be not children in understanding: howbeit in malice be ye children, but in understanding be men.

 

2. A Good Baby’s Desire [v. 2]

 

3. A Good Baby’s Dilemma [v. 3]

 

II. WHAT ABOUT A GOOD BUILDING? [v. 4-8]

 

1. Focused on a Person [v. 3-4]

 

2. Fashioned for a Purpose [v. 5]

 

3. Following the Pattern [v. 6-8]

III. WHAT ABOUT GOOD PEOPLE? [v. 9-25]

 

But doesn’t the Bible say “there is none good, no not one”? Uh… not quite.

Romans 3:12, quoting Psalm 53, says, They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one

Mark 10:18 And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God.

The Bible says of Barnabas in Acts 11:24, For he was a good man, and full of the Holy Ghost and of faith: and much people was added unto the Lord.

No one is good intrinsically but God. But God can make a person good by His grace.

 

1. Chosen to be Good [v. 9-10]

 

2. Encouraged to be Good [v. 11-20]

 

3. Shown [by Christ’s example] to be Good [v. 21 -25]
