‘All True Believers Belong To God First.’

a) 1 Corinthians 3:21. We do not boast about belonging to certain Leaders. All things are ours.
b) 1 Corinthians 3:22. All people and situations are ours.
c) 1 Corinthians 3:23. We belong to Christ and Christ is of God.
(Through this QT I am reminded that All True Believers Belong To God First)

‘We Have Tasted That The Lord Is Good.’
1 Peter 2:3-5.
a) 1 Peter 2:3. All True Believers should have tasted that the Lord is good.
b) 1 Peter 2:4. We come to the Lord Jesus:-
1- He is the Living Stone.
2- He was rejected by men.
3- He is chosen by God.
4- He is precious to God.
c) 1 Peter 2:5. We are living stones so:-
1- We should let ourselves be built into a spiritual house.
2- We are to be a Holy Priesthood.
3- We should offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
(Through this Second one I understand how to respond to Him now that I Have Tasted That The Lord Is Good)

Chris.
When the Bible tells us that God so loved the World that He gave His only begotten Son to die on the Cross as the punishment for our sins, it is the very centre of the Gospel. We also need to remember that Jesus Christ was and is so Precious to God the Father. What amazing Love God has for us.
