The Modern Self- Part 2

Summary

The sermon explores the contrast between the modern self, which seeks to shape the world to its own desires, and the redeemed self, which finds true identity and purpose in Jesus Christ. Drawing from 1 Peter chapters 1 and 2, the preacher emphasizes that the modern self is futile and leads to frustration and separation from God, while the redeemed self is born again, humble, and lives in submission to Christ as the precious cornerstone. The redeemed self experiences a living hope, unity with others, and a life that glorifies God even amidst conflict with the world. The message calls believers to live beautifully and faithfully, pointing others to Jesus through their transformed lives.
