Scripture of the week:

I Peter 2: 5 "you also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ"

 

The priesthood in ancient Israel held a very highly responsible position as God's representative to the people. Their conduct and the sacrifices they offered (without blemish) had to be acceptable to God.

We also as a called out, set apart people must through our conduct and our spiritual sacrifices give our very best in service to God and Christ. Let us strive to be those living stones part of God's spiritual house that are truly examples and lights to the world.

 

Have a good Sabbath

Fred Nance
