“As free, and not using your liberty for a cloak of maliciousness, but as the servants of God” (1 Peter 2:16).
I chose to use the words of our study writer concerning today’s verse. “Grace grants us freedom—from sin, judgment and the world’s mold Yet 1 Peter 2:16 cautions believers not to play their freedom card for sinful or self-driven purposes. Grace enables us to submit and to serve. Our actions and choices matter to God and others.”
As we live in this present world, we wield some measure of influence on others. Are we sharing grace with the world or hiding our light under a bushel?
