Context in the World (2:11) Sojourners and Pilgrims – Strangers: “a foreigner, one who lives in a place without the right of citizenship” (Thayer); A “by-dweller” (Exo. 12:40) Heavenly citizenship, Philippians 3:20 Holy nation, 1 Peter 2:9 We are the Israel of God, Galatians 6:16 (Romans 9:6); Ephesians 2:

Context in the World (2:11) Sojourners and Pilgrims – Pilgrims: “to dwell beside” (A.T. Robertson) A resident foreigner (alien resident), 1 Peter 1:17 Temporary residents: “The Christian is a pilgrim on his way to the homeland” (Ibid) The Rechabites, Jeremiah 35:1-10 (14, 16) 7

Context in the World (2:11) Losing Distinctiveness, 2 Cor. 11:3 – We have made this world our home when we are no longer distinctive doctrinally and morally in our daily living-- Ezekiel 22:26; 44:23 (42:20) – Royal priesthood, 1 Peter 2:9 Not profane, common and corrupt 8

Conflict with the World (2:11) Abstain from fleshly lusts – World indulges the flesh, 1 John 2:16-17 – Respect God’s holiness – We are His children: Chosen and holy, 1 Peter 1:15; 2:9 War against the soul – Protected by fulfilling the desires of the Spirit, Galatians 5:16-17 – Evil campaigns against our purpose, Eccl. 12:13 9

Conduct and Character (2:12) Honorable conduct – Good, valuable, virtuous, worthy, Phil. 2:15 – Home, work, play, school, at all times, 1 Peter 3:10-12 – Warning: “The Gentiles are on the watch for slips in moral conduct by the Christians.” (A. T. Robertson) – Character of Christ, Colossians 3:

Courage in Opposition (2:12) Your good will be evil spoken of, 1 Peter 3:13-17 Faith must be courageous to influence the lost, 1 Cor. 16:13-14; 2 Tim. 1:7-8 – If we are silenced by fear our influence in the world is rendered powerless, Philippians 1:

12

Conversion of the Lost (2:12) You get their attention by your life – You are not like the world (Phil. 4:11-13) – Otherwise, you lose your influence God gets their attention with the gospel, Romans 1:16 – Good examples alone will not convert the lost, Romans 10:13-15 – Use every chance to teach the gospel 13
