The Purpose of our lives

Uni-verse 249/10,000 For better through verse
1Pe 2:9 But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:



From every generation of mankind, there are chosen numbers of people who are anointed by God to be kings and priests, to belong to a divine nationality, a people who look forward to a future life beyond earthly loyalties and allegiances. All are called from birth but only a few are chosen. They belong to every race, nation, culture,linguistic and ethnic background.

We are called a peculiar people as we do not share the standards, values and aspirations of the rest of humanity. We cannot resort to the same methods as they do. For instance, we cannot be materialistic though we know of the necessity of money. We cannot be vindictive though we have been wronged.

Our life is driven by the one purpose that we declare and show the praises of the Great I Am who called us out of darkness of sin, curses and death into the light of righteousness, blessings here and now and eternal life.

Prateep V Philip
