1 Peter 4:12-19: Dealing with Trials (The Death of Christendom)

Welcome to the 8th sermon in our series on the book of 1 Peters (8 of 8).

For nearly 1700 years in the western world, Christianity has played a major role in the government. That has changed…and it’s OK. Since Genesis 3 the world has been in rebellion against God. If the world is in rebellion against God, then it makes sense that it would also be in rebellion against Christianity, that Christianity wouldn’t quite fit in the world. Peter wrote to Christians that were dealing with social ostracization and marginalization. Many of their behaviors were looked at peculiarly. They didn’t belong to the popular culture. Peter reminds them of what really matters and of what they should trust. Join us as we walk through an encouraging first letter from Peter that reminds us that Christianity is not a voting bloc, rather a living hope!
