  27. Verse 10-12

  28. Stand firm in…grace.

  29. “Whenever Christian have forgotten that walking in the steps of Jesus is costly, 1 Peter has been a forgotten book. The ‘true grace of God’ hardly seems necessary for communities which are rich with their own resources. Where membership in the family of God is offered at bargain-basement prices, the message of 1 Peter is sure to be irrelevant, for only alien communites will find that this book still speak a word of encouragement.”

  30. “Where people are offered what they want, the call to follow Jesus ‘in His steps’ is not heard. Instead, what is offered is affluence, peace of mind, and other itemson the perceived wish list of viewers. It is a world far removed from 1 Peter, where the true grace of God is costly and demanding. Historically, when the church maintained its identity, it made an impression on the wider populace. The proper role of the church in culture is not to offer the populace what it wants, but to follow the path of the rejected ine who gave Himself for others.”

  31. “Today the task for the church is not to become more popular to a secular society, but to be faithful to its commitment. Our story did not begin with a popular Savior, but with one whose people did not receive Him.”—James Thompson, The Church In Exile
