| Comments 1 Peter 2 |
| So why are we disallowed[1] or rejected of men in verse 4? What was the Christian conflict? It was with the Fathers of the earth and the men who called themselves Benefactors but exercise authority one over the other. |
| How are we living stones and how are we built together as a spiritual house except as living Altars of unhewn stone? |
| Why a holy priesthood? Peter is saying that we are a holy office of a priest and an order or body? |
| For what purpose? What is the duty of priests in ancient societies? What does a spiritual sacrifice acceptable to God look like? |
| It would not look like the sacrifice of the pharisees. What does it mean to believeth on him in verse 6? |
| This seems to be talking about those who rejected Christ and said they had no king but Caesar. It could also include those who say they believe but do not do, also known as the disobedient souls. |
| Peter is addressing someone who is being obedient in things that others were disobedient in. He is calling them chosen generation, The kingdom of God is from generation to generation.[2] They are also a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people the terms royal is kingly and the word nation is the word for gentiles. Even the word peculiar means a purchased, preserved or possessed people.[3] |
| Jesus is a "Rock of offence" to the disobedient. It is clear here that if you are disobedient and not doing what Christ said, then you are not counted as a believer. The Pharisees were making the word of God to none effect. Even the word precious is the Greek word often translated honor meaning valuable. What makes the chosen valuable? |
| What good works is Peter talking about and how would those good works speak of you as not an evildoer? |
| In Acts 6:2 why did the people pick Seven Men to "serve tables" and Peter appoints them to do some business? |
| Using what liberty on verse 16 for a cloke of maliciousness? The word liberty is from didomi[4] which means grant. What was granted or given? |
| Verse 13 actually says "(therefore) Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man". Why? Why do we read Acts 5:29 where Peter is saying "We ought to obey God rather than men." Why did not Christians submit to Vigellius Saturninus, proconsul of Africa? |
| Matthew 21:43 Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof. |
| What was the problem with Cain, Nimrod, Pharaoh, Saul, or Caesar and what was the Christian conflict with Rome? |
| Once we understand that Jesus' conflict with the Corban of the Pharisees was because ti was a welfare system based on forced sacrifices of the people. Once the people signed up their contributions, based on hand written ordinances against their members, the people were forced to pay tribute. |
| To understand the gospel we need to know that what should have been for our welfare can become a snare[5] and to eat at the table of kings or rulers[6] will make you merchandise because it is the covetous table of the unrighteous. |
| Proverbs 12:24 "The hand of the diligent shall bear rule: but the slothful shall be under tribute." |
| This goes hand in hand with not coveting our neighbors' good for personal benefit which not only make us merchandise but would even curse our children with debt and bondage. Romans 13 and 1 Peter 2,13-14 |
| Is the Bible consistent with setting men free or does it contradict itself? |
| While Peter does encourage us to cooperate in “humility” he, and the other apostles, also instruct “We ought to obey God rather than men”. |
| Peter was known for doing things "contrary to the decrees of Caesar" in Acts 17:7 |
| Have Modern Christians gone out of The Way of Christ? They have little or no Daily ministration and seem to prefer to eat at the table of kings and men who call themselves Benefactors but exercise authority one over the other with great appetite. Instead of living by faith, hope and charity and the perfect law of liberty they choose to do contrary to the teachings of John the Baptist and Jesus and live by forcing their neighbor to contribute to their welfare with Covetous Practices. They desire the One purse of modern Socialism through the welfare of Statism and the sloth of False religion rather than the Pure Religion of the early Church. See 1 Peter 2:13 |
1 Peter 2
- 1 Peter 2:1 Wherefore laying aside all malice, and all guile, and hypocrisies, and envies, and all evil speakings,
- 2 As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word[7], that ye may grow thereby:
- 3 If so be ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious.
Living Stones
- 4 To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious,
- 5 Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood,[8][9] to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.
- 6 Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded.
- 7 Unto you therefore which believe he is precious:[10] but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner,
Rock of offence
- 8 And a stone of stumbling[11], and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word[12], being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed.
Ye are chosen
- 9 But ye are a chosen generation[13], a royal priesthood,[9] an holy nation[14], [15] a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:
- 10 Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.
Call to good works
- 11 Dearly beloved, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul;
- 12 Having your conversation[16] honest among the Gentiles: that, whereas they speak against you as evildoers, they may by your good works, which they shall behold, glorify God in the day of visitation.[17]
Therefore submit
- 13 Submit yourselves to every ordinance[18] of man for the Lord’s sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme;[19]
- 14 Or unto governors[20], as unto them that are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of them that do well.
- 15 For so is the will of God, that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:
- 16 As free, and not using your liberty for a cloke of maliciousness, but as the servants of God.
- 17 Honour all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honour the king.
- 18 Servants, be subject to your masters with all fear; not only to the good and gentle, but also to the froward.
Steps of Christ
- 19 For this is thankworthy, if a man for conscience toward God endure grief, suffering wrongfully.
- 20 For what glory is it, if, when ye be buffeted for your faults, ye shall take it patiently? but if, when ye do well, and suffer for it, ye take it patiently, this is acceptable with God.
- 21 For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps:
- 22 Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth:
- 23 Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously:
- 24 Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.
- 25 For ye were as sheep going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls.
