Living In Harmony

The Apostle Peter gave instruction on living the good life in 1 Peter 3:8-12. He wrote this to believers who were being persecuted by an unbelieving and hostile culture. He had instructed them on how to relate to their government, their employers, and even their unbelieving spouses. Then Peter sums it all up with how they can experience the good life in the midst of all that.

Peter begins by telling the believers that they are to be harmonious. They need to live together in harmony in the midst of a hostile world. Believers need to be of one mind. Christians need to be united in serving the Lord.

No matter what rejection we face in the world we have our fellow believers who share our beliefs and we can enjoy the harmony of worshipping and serving the Lord together. When believers don’t take advantage of the fellowship of believers, they won’t experience the good life.
