What Does It Mean To Be A Peculiar People – 3 A People With A Purpose

But you are not like that, for you are a chosen people. You are royal priests, a holy nation, God’s very own possession. As a result, you can show others the goodness of God, for he called you out of the darkness into his wonderful light.   1 Peter 2:9

God Has Given Us A Purpose

God Can Use Us Where We Are

You are the light of the world—like a city on a hilltop that cannot be hidden. No one lights a lamp and then puts it under a basket. Instead, a lamp is placed on a stand, where it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your good deeds shine out for all to see, so that everyone will praise your heavenly Father.   Matthew 5:14-16

Our Lives Should Reflect Christ

Do everything without complaining and arguing, so that no one can criticize you. Live clean, innocent lives as children of God, shining like bright lights in a world full of crooked and perverse people.   Philippians 2:14-15

We Have A Story Worth Telling

Hold firmly to the word of life; then, on the day of Christ’s return, I will be proud that I did not run the race in vain and that my work was not useless.   Philippines 2:16

Many Samaritans from the village believed in Jesus because the woman had said, “He told me everything I ever did!”   John 4:39
