Do you know how privileged you are to live at this time in history? 

  Do you realize the opportunity people have even today to be saved for all eternity through the past work of Christ Jesus on the altar of the cross?

  Do you know that Jesus Christ was revealed for your sake?

  As you read the following Scripture, think through each phrase as if God is speaking to you alone:

(NASB) 1 Peter 1:17-21 “If you address as Father the One who impartially judges according to each one’s work, conduct yourselves in fear during the time of your stay on earth;
18 knowing that you were not redeemed with perishable things like silver or gold from your futile way of life inherited from your forefathers,
19 but with precious blood, as of a lamb unblemished and spotless, the blood of Christ.
20 For He was foreknown before the foundation of the world, but has appeared in these last times for the sake of you
21 who through Him are believers in God, who raised Him from the dead and gave Him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God.”

  Your faith and hope are to be in God…the living God Who knew His Son would redeem all who believe in Jesus as Savior, before the foundation of the world.  Jesus…God the Son…has been shown to you through the Holy Bible.  How have you responded?
