GOD’S ELECT, STRANGERS IN THE WORLD

 

To God’s Elect, Strangers in the World,

Scattered throughout Pontus, Galatia,

Cappadocia, Asia and Bithynia,

Who have been Chosen

According to the Foreknowledge

Of God the Father,

Through the Sanctifying Work of the Spirit,

For Obedience to Jesus Christ

And Sprinkled by His blood:

Grace and Peace be yours in Abundance.

(1 Peter 1:1-2)

Today, God’s people, the Elect,

Are Strangers in this World,

Chosen by the Foreknowledge of God the Father,

Through the Sanctifying Work of the Spirit,

For Obedience to Jesus Christ

And Sprinkled by his blood,

And because of this,

We have Peace in Abundance.
