Reading for September 16th
Read 1 Peter 1.22-2.3 New birth, new behavior.
Conversion to the "holy" God demands a holy life.
In verses 22-23 the new birth (1.3) functions as part of the exhortation to holy living.
In verses 23-25 in contrast to a mortal world where things die (all flesh is like grass), in God's immortal world, the word of divine promises endures forever means death to previous sin,
pursuit of spiritual milk which nourishes for endurance, and wisdom for valuing this noble state.
