Bible Question: Ok I have a short talk that I am going to give this sunday for the youth and the topic is "To Days Youth" and i am having trouble with this scripture so can you help me? On 1Peter 2:9 and can you tell me how does this topic relate to this verse? |
Bible Answer: Hello chellehtx We can try. The verse is a statement concerning our priesthood as believers. Of course the question is: What do priests do? According to the verse we are to proclaim the excellencies of the Lord Jesus Christ--attributes, work of redemption, intercession for the saints, anything that shows Him to be altogether lovely. In relation to today's youth, it's what they are called to do right now as believers in the Lord. Hope this helps. Steve |
