1 Peter 1:13-16

1 Peter 1:13-16 (ESV) Therefore, preparing your minds for action, and being sober-minded, set your hope fully on the grace that will be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ. As obedient children, do not be conformed to the passions of your former ignorance, but as he who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, since it is written, “You shall be holy, for I am holy.”

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS:

  • What are other things we set our hope in, other than God's grace? Things we look forward to, things that we expect will make us happy, things we adjust our lives to prepare for?

  • Why is it difficult to set our hope on what God has promised?

  • Peter tells us to prepare our minds and to be sober-minded (focused, undistracted). What happens to us if we don't do this?

  • What habits can help us do this?

  • Peter says to be holy in all our conduct. What parts of our lives do we often neglect in our pursuit of being holy?
