Peter was just a common person that had a job, they lived in the sea of Galilee, and he was a fisherman.

And when he writes his epistle, it is written in the poorest Greek, not like Luke.

I am falling.

I am falling in love. I am falling in love. I am falling in love. I am falling to have you along for our community. Somebody Lives You Radio, the Bible teaching ministry of Roll Rees in Diamond Bar, California.

We're glad to have you along for our continuing series in First Peter.

Pointing to the Bible's undeniable empowerment in the life of Peter, a humble fisherman,

Roll will encourage us to seek God's word for our own transformation.

As you stay with us here on Somebody Lives Your Radio, you'll see that the more time you spend in the word of God, the more God

can use its truth to guide and equip you to carry out his perfect will. Here's Roll Rees in the

acceptable to god through jesus christ now it's really important that we understand because

there are a lot of people that get upset and they get mad

or my dad or my brother or my sister do not come through Jesus Christ? They're going to go to hell

And that is every person in the world

has to be regenerated. Regeneration. Because think of all of the religions of the world and

think of how many hundreds and thousands of churches every Sunday morning have services?
