Meditation 6/16 - 6/22: The World Is Not Our Home NLT
Published in Bible Verses
The World Is Not Our Home
But you are not like that, for you are a chosen people. You are a kingdom of priests, God's holy nation, his very own possession. This is so you can show others the goodness of God, for he called you out of the darkness into his wonderful light.
"Once you were not a people;
now you are the people of God.
Once you received none of God's mercy;
now you have received his mercy."
Dear brothers and sisters, you are foreigners and aliens here. So I warn you to keep away from evil desires because they fight against your very souls. 12Be careful how you live among your unbelieving neighbors. Even if they accuse you of doing wrong, they will see your honorable behavior, and they will believe and give honor to God when he comes to judge the world.
1 Peter 2:9-12 NLT
