The Promise of Glory After Our Present Suffering - 1 Peter 5:8-14 - June 25, 2023

At the end of the Apostle Peter’s first letter to the churches we hear the great promise that gives us hope in our present suffering. As sojourners in this world, our suffering comes in many forms. In this passage, the suffering is in the form of ongoing attacks and accusations of the devil that we must regularly resist by faith. The hope we have lies in the promise that our suffering here will give way to the work of God in our lives that will lead to the final state of shared glory with Christ our Savior. Let this promise pull you forward in faith and faithfulness to him.

Grace Community Church exists to build spiritually healthy people for ministry in the world. One of the ways that we pursue this mission is by gathering each Sunday for corporate worship, prayer, and biblical teaching. The corporate nature of this gathering is both edifying to the believer and a witness of God’s grace to the world. Sermon speaker is Scott Patty unless otherwise noted.
