*How To Meet God’s Challenge of Holiness—1 Peter 1:13-17*

* *

/13 Therefore prepare your minds for action; discipline yourselves; set all your hope on the grace that Jesus Christ will bring you when he is revealed.

14 Like obedient children, do not be conformed to the desires that you formerly had in ignorance/.

/15Instead, as he who called you is holy, *be holy yourselves in all your conduct*; 16 for it is written, “You shall be holy, for I am holy.” 17 If you invoke as Father the one who judges all people impartially according to their deeds*, live in reverent fear* during the time of your exile./

*When You Reverently Get Your [MIND READY FOR ACTION]*

* *

*/Therefore prepare your MINDS FOR ACTION… /Verse 13a*

*/ /*

/5 For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those *who live according to the Spirit set their minds on the things of the Spirit*.

6 To set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace.

7 For this reason the mind that is set on the flesh is hostile to God; it does not submit to God’s law—indeed it cannot, 8 and those who are in the flesh cannot please God./ *Romans 8:5-8*

 

*When You Reverently Get Your [LIFESTYLE DISCIPLINED BY GRACE]*

*/“… DISCIPLINE YOURSELVES…”/ Verse 13b*

*/ /*

/11 For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all, *12 training us to renounce impiety and worldly passions, and in the present age to live lives that are self-controlled, upright, and godly*, 13 while we wait for the blessed hope and the manifestation of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ.

14 He it is who gave himself for us that he might redeem us from all iniquity and purify for himself a people of his own who are zealous for good deeds./

*Titus** 2:11-14*

 

*When You Reverently Get Your [HOPE ON HEAVEN]*

*/“... /SET ALL YOUR HOPE on the grace that Jesus Christ*

Verse 13c*

* *

/19 “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust consume and where thieves break in and steal; 20 but *store up for yourselves treasures in heaven*, where neither moth nor rust consumes and where thieves do not break in and steal.

21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

/*Matthew** 6:19-21*

 

*When You Reverently Get Your [PASSIONS UNDER CONTROL]*

* *

*/Like obedient children, DO NOT BE CONFORMED TO THE DESIRES/*

*/that you formerly had in ignorance./

Verse 14*

* *

/22 By contrast, the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, and self-control.

There is no law against such things.

24 And those who belong to Christ Jesus have *crucified the flesh with its passions and desires*.

25 If we live by the Spirit, let us also be guided by the Spirit.

26 Let us not become conceited, competing against one another, envying one another/.

*Galatians 5:22-26*
