1 Pe 5:12-14
12 By Silvanus, a faithful brother as I regard him, I have written briefly to you, exhorting and declaring that this is the true grace of God. Stand firm in it. 13 She who is at Babylon, who is likewise chosen, sends you greetings, and so does Mark, my son. 14 Greet one another with the kiss of love.Peace to all of you who are in Christ.
- What is the true grace of God?
- Why did Peter use the word "true"?
- How might a false grace be presented?
- Why must you stand firm in the true grace of God?
- If grace is merely letting Christ die for your sins, how hard is it to stand in it?
- If the true grace of God includes holy living and suffering, how hard is it to stand?
- How do you greet fellow Christians?
- How often do you tolerate fellow Christians instead of greeting them in love?
- Why is physical contact(kiss on cheek, handshake, hug, etc.) important?
- How might you let your personal comfort zone prevent you from expressing love for other Christians?
- How does Peter end a book with a major theme of suffering and persecution? Why?
- How can you have peace in the midst of suffering?
