2 | through the spirit? | 1 Pet 1:2 | InHisLove | 172071 | ||
Greetings in the Lord, The Apostle Peter writes about himself in v.2, through the sanctification of the Spirit unto obedience… (NKJV), and, by the sanctifying work of the Spirit, to obey Jesus Christ…(NASB).

The love of Christ is perfect love and will cause us to love God and our neighbors as we should by the power of the Holy Spirit and therefore obey Christ. InHisLove, Hans |
