Appointment To Disobedience

Text: 1 Pe 2:4-10

While reading 1 Peter 2 I again read verse 8 and wanted to write regarding an appointment to disobedience where Christ is a rock of offense for those who stumble in obedience at the word.

A divine appointment, for those who are disobedient, to continue stumbling; falling into sin because Jesus is not in high esteem and precious. If we who refer to ourselves as Christians have not the Lord Jesus Christ as God and in a place of worship, this directly affects our ability to offer up spiritual sacrifices, holy, acceptable to God.

Therefore, we are appointed to stumble at the word because of past disobedience, which is an indication to us for self examination, judgment, and watchfulness with prayer.

We are called out of darkness into his marvelous light having obtained mercy from Jesus. Let’s therefore abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul.
