Growing Up in Christ

Standing Firm in Hard Times, part 3.   Peter was an eyewitness and a participant in Jesus’ earthly ministry. We could say, “Peter’s soul grew up in Jesus.” Using earthly illustrations to explain kingdom principles, Peter quoted Old Testament verses, the only scripture his readers would know. He tells of babies’ needing spiritual nourishment including pure and sincere love—not evil, hate and bad talk. He refers to the building trade, the importance of building on the solid cornerstone, the most critical stone in an entire building and most important of all, the “living cornerstone” that God chose and valued.
