1 Peter 2

We should lay aside all evil dispositions, and desire the sincere milk of the word, that we may grow thereby, 1 Peter 2:1-3 . And come to God to be made living stones, and be built up into a spiritual temple, 1 Peter 2:4 , 1 Peter 2:5 . The prophecy of Christ as chief corner stone, precious to believers, but a stumbling stone to the disobedient, 1 Peter 2:6-8 . True believers are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, etc., 1 Peter 2:9 , 1 Peter 2:10 . They should abstain from fleshly lusts, 1 Peter 2:11 . Walk uprightly among the Gentiles, 1 Peter 2:12 . Be obedient to civil authority, according to the will of God, 1 Peter 2:13-15 . Make a prudent use of their Christian liberty, 1 Peter 2:16 . Fear God and honor the king, 1 Peter 2:17 . Servants should be subject to their masters, and serve them faithfully, and suffer indignities patiently, after the example of Christ, 1 Peter 2:18-23 . Who bore the punishment due to our sins in his own body upon the tree, 1 Peter 2:24 . They were formerly like sheep going astray, but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of their souls, 1 Peter 2:25 .
