This message expounds 1 Peter 2:24, "He Himself bore our sins in His body on the cross, so that we might die to sin and live to righteousness; for by His wounds you were healed." Because Christ bore the punishment for our sins, and caused us to be born again, He enables us to live for Him. And so the basic exhortation is just that: Live for Christ. Please listen, like, and share.
