| 0:00.0 | Hey there, my friends. Welcome back to the Morning Mindset. Did you know that if you are a believer in Jesus Christ, the Bible says you are a holy priest? We're going to dig it into that in just a moment in the book of First Peter peter welcome to the morning mindset i hope you're ready |
| 0:22.2 | to get your mind aligned with the truth of god's word for this day as we look at scripture |
| 0:28.2 | i know there are times that it can become very confusing to us it can become kind of dry to us |
| 0:34.5 | and sometimes that's just because we're approaching it the same way over and over, |
| 0:38.6 | and we need a new perspective. |
| 0:40.4 | I have a book called Recharge, which is nothing more than a compilation of various ways of looking at and studying the scriptures. |
| 0:48.6 | If you feel like you could use a refresh or a recharge in your approach to scripture, |
| 0:56.2 | I encourage you to find the book. You can go to morning mindset media.com slash recharge to find that resource. You can also find that URL in the |
| 1:03.2 | description of this episode. Okay, friends, get out your Bibles. We're going to be looking at 1st |
| 1:08.3 | Peter 2 verses 4 and 5 today. Before we do, |

| 1:17.8 | Lord, we acknowledge, first of all, you are speaking to us when we read the Word of God. It is your |
| 1:23.1 | voice behind the black and white words that is working in our hearts to change us and to make us |
| 1:30.1 | more like your son Jesus. So do that today as we read 1st Peter 2 4 through 5. Lord, help us |
| 1:35.8 | understand what you're saying to us today. In Jesus name, amen. All right, as we read 1 Peter 2, |
| 1:43.9 | 4 through 5, this is what God's word says. It says, as you |
| 1:47.8 | come to him, Jesus, a living stone rejected by men, but in the sight of God chosen and precious, |
| 1:56.0 | you yourselves like living stones are being built up as a spiritual house. Okay, so if we stop there, our imagery |
| 2:04.5 | is very consistent. Jesus is a living stone. He makes us into living stones and he builds us all |
| 2:11.2 | up together into a spiritual house. I would say that's the church he's describing. Then he switches his imagery. And he says he's |
| 2:19.7 | doing all this building up so that we will be a holy priesthood. Notice that in the last part of |
