Msg #2104 SufferingWrongfully

What The Bible Says

Good Samaritan's Penny Pulpit by Pastor Ed Rice

The Apostle Peter's discourse on how a believer can suffer wrongfully with patience is most pertinent since the leftist regime has done a hostile takeover of our nation. 2020 brought things that took Christians out of their comfort zone. Peter says while out there we should reflect on our incorruptible inheritance, the gold in the trial, and God's awesome plan of salvation. But Peter tags on how we should watch our Walk, mind our Worship, and attend to God's Word. Let them be the www in our 2021. “Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope to the end” (1Pet 1:13). The picture of garment parts dangling loose and in the way, causing a stifled and dangerous walk is herein applied to the mind. Entertainment, amusements and hobbies need to be “girded” up. As should “stinking thinking” as I've heard it called.

Look then at Peter's worship of our Redeemer, “Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things,... But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot” (1:18-19). Our Creator is become our Redeemer, worship him. Look too at Peter's reverence for the Word, “For all flesh is as grass, ... But the word of the Lord endureth for ever” (1:24-25). Modernist ecumenicals suppose God was unable to preserve his inerrant Word, and they will tell you what God meant to say in their copyright versions. They made ghastly changes to Peter's two letters as documented in my book, “The 357 Magnum Errors of the Modernist's Critical Texts”¹, that details seventeen changes they made to Apostle Peter's work.

In these last days persecution is not unprecedented. Peter's letters to the persecuted teach how to suffer wrongfully with patience, and a testimony.
