ALIENS AND STRANGERS / 1 PETER 2:11

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) 1 Peter 2:11

Dearly beloved, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul;

ALIENS AND STRANGERS / 1 PETER 2:11

As followers of Christ, our new designation as God’s own possession sets us apart from the corrupt ways of this world. We are part of Christ’s kingdom, which “is not of this world” (John 18:36). We are not identified with, nor do we give in to the deceptive and destructive influences of the surrounding society. For now, we live in a country to which we do not belong; we are simply passing through on the way to “a better country” (Hebrews 11:16). Our true citizenship is with Christ in heaven (Philippians 3:20-21; Hebrews 11:9-16); therefore, we must not conform to the world’s pattern and practices (Romans 12:2).
