A Living Hope and an Eternal Inheritance (1 Peter 1:3-5)
God’s mercy gives believers new birth, living hope, and an eternal inheritance that can never fade, fail, or be taken away.
“Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good repute, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, dwell on these things. The things you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, practice these things, and the God of peace will be with you.” – Philippians 4:8-9
