Summary

Sermon Outline “Until He Comes: Know Whose & Who You Are!” - I Peter 2:4-12 Identity theft, identity crisis, show your ID - You have to have an ID for it to be stolen, in crisis, or shown. Do you know who you are? 2012’s theme: Until He Comes - looking for Jesus to come again & living according to that perspective. God is here with us now & Jesus is coming again! Until He comes, we need to know/understand whose we are & who we are, specifically who we are in Christ. Peter addresses that topic in I Peter 2:4-12 I)We are those who have come to Christ. J. I. Packer: “Call on the coming Judge to be your present Savior.” (Knowing God, Chapter 14, Page 147) Why come to Jesus? That He might be the foundation of your life. II)He is the Cornerstone, rejected by men, but precious & chosen by God. John 1:11, I Peter 2:6-7b There is no other foundation, no other cornerstone for the Church. I Peter 2:8, Matthew 21:44 III)All who are in Christ are like “living stones,” which Jesus is using to build His Church, a “spiritual house.” Individually we are “the temple of the Holy Spirit” (I Corinthians 6:19), but not the Church. Individually we are to build upon the foundation of Christ - Matthew 7:24-27, I Corinthians 3:11-15 What are you building? What will last? Together we are the Church. God is building us together. Together we are being built by God into a spiritual house, aligning us with Jesus, the Cornerstone. It’s God’s work, but we cooperate by aligning with Christ (“Be holy, for I am holy”). IV)All who are in Christ are together “a holy priesthood.” Jesus is our High Priest; we need no other mediator! Priest - Represents God before men, men before God (pray, witness); - Serves God by worship & work. - Spiritual sacrifices - Romans 12:1, Hebrews 13:15-16 Whose are we? We belong to God, bought by the blood of Jesus. Who are we? We are living stones in the hands of God. We are priests, together a holy priesthood. Until He comes, let us remember whose we are and live like who we are in Christ!
